Apologies for Dr Jeffy's allergy-stricken voice in this episode. Let that be a testament to her dedication to you all!

In this episode of “Derm and Dumber,” Dr Jeffy and husband banter about a cheeky men’s sunscreen campaign for Pasty Man Sunscreen, an electric box cutter, and Dyson’s expensive new toothbrush. We then discuss Kim Kardashian’s Broc Shots sulforaphane supplement. We cover a “pickles everywhere” trend, edible fragrances, and a small study suggesting GLP-1 use may reduce stem cells in abdominal skin. We talk Meta’s settlement-driven teen usage limits, holiday wish-list app “Giftful,” slang shifts, retro tech trends, a returning Paul Frank brand, a new Ultra Violette sunscreen with the new sunscreen filter bemotrizinol at Sephora, and answer how to minimize enlarged pores.

Broccoli; it's not just for your son's hair style anymore!
