Antioxidants are praised as skin saviors, but how much do we really understand about them? 

In this episode of the Meder Beauty Podcast, I explore the truth behind antioxidant skincare, uncovering what works, what’s hype, and how to build the right daily routine for real results. I talk about the balance between free radicals and antioxidants, why your microbiome matters, and the surprising link between diet and skin barrier health. I also break down popular ingredients like vitamin C, niacinamide, coenzyme Q10, and polyphenols—sharing which ones are truly worth your time. 

This is your no-nonsense, science-based guide to supporting healthy, radiant skin.
