Episode Bitesize Moment: "Entertained, Not Educated." — Jennifer Rock on spotting advice you can trust

0:00 5:46

In this bitesize moment pulled from the Laura Dowling Experience back catalogue, skin expert and Skin Nerd founder Jennifer Rock explains why so much health and skincare advice online is built to entertain rather than educate — and how to tell the difference.

She makes a straight-talking case for checking qualifications, standards and the source behind any advice before you act on it, so the next viral "must buy" doesn't catch you out.

🔑Key Points

• Why qualifications and standards matter in skincare and health

• How social media is designed to entertain, not educate

• Why you should always check the source of your advice

• A simple filter for viral trends and "must buy" claims
