25.504 - 27.991 Unknown

I know, love. Coming to a cinema near you.

0

28.112 - 46.749 Alex Hourigan

Yeah. But for our chicks at home, we're coming to you live, exactly like Al said, from the Neutrogena Skinvestment Clinic. How cool is this space? It's literally incredible. But what are we talking through today, Sal? So today we are joining Neutrogena to talk about their latest product launch, Collagen Bank.

47.23 - 73.634 Alex Hourigan

So Neutrogena has been locked away in the labs for seven years, developing with dermatologists the game-changing micropeptide technology that penetrates up to 10 layers deep, supporting your collagen for glowing plump skin. Neutrogena. And with the launch of a new moisturiser and eye gel, both containing these amazing peptides with the moisturiser, also containing Bacotul. Did I nail that?

74.416 - 75.498 Alex Hourigan

I always stumble over that one.

75.538 - 78.863 Sally McMullen

Yes, everyone nod. Yeah, yeah. Everyone nod and give encouragement.

79.805 - 83.091 Alex Hourigan

And the eye cream containing natural bio-peptides and niacinamide.

83.311 - 95.792 Unknown

Today we're going to chat like skincare myths. how to kind of create a routine that doesn't break the bank because Cozzy lives voids, and also investing in things that just make you feel good.

Chapter 2: What skincare myths are commonly debunked?

358.737 - 374.994 Unknown

It makes you feel like a proper adult. Like you're like, wow, not to sound like a millennial, but you're like, you're really adulting. Yeah. I'm on the cusp. So I just kind of claim whatever suits me. I'm 1996. So sometimes depending on what article you look up, I'm Gen Z and then sometimes I'm a millennial and I just pick which suits that day.

0

375.775 - 392.959 Alex Hourigan

Yeah. But it's the kind of things that, yeah, may feel a little bit daunting or annoying or like, oh, I just couldn't be bothered. But it pays, just like investing, honestly, all of these things they pay in like compound interest over time. So the earlier that you start these things, the better off you will be in future.

0

393.099 - 411.369 Alex Hourigan

So, yeah, it can be big things like investing or even just starting to track your expenses. and looking at where your money is going and setting up a budget. Like starting with those small, really actionable steps can help you, you know, I guess like you have to make the first step.

0

411.569 - 432.117 Unknown

Yeah. Also, I know it sounds boring, but like super, because I didn't know, I'm so embarrassed. I didn't know who my super was until probably like four years ago. And I'm too old for that to be the number. You know what I mean? Like does everyone here know who their super is? Is anyone lying?

0

433.698 - 453.28 Alex Hourigan

Someone say no to make her feel better. Someone say no, okay? Please, I need that. But I think that is pretty common because so many people start their work and their employer just sets them up with whatever account and sometimes you'll even jump jobs and they'll set you up with a new one and you're like, rock on, sounds good. And then you actually look and you're like, ah.

453.26 - 469.818 Alex Hourigan

why do I have 13 super accounts? Like I think that is a very normal thing that a lot of people experience and it's unfortunately something that we don't learn in school. But we know Pythagoras' theorem, thankfully. And hot cross buns on the recorder, which I'm going to perform for you now.

470.578 - 477.606 Unknown

Not our eight times tables though. Those never stuck. Yeah, that's true. They really did try and make those work but unfortunately. Why was it?

477.886 - 481.27 Alex Hourigan

Anyway, that's a whole other half an hour topic.

481.53 - 481.63

Yeah.

Chapter 3: How can everyday habits make you feel rich in life?

514.448 - 525.919 Alex Hourigan

Even like filling up your Stanley water bottle and like putting it beside the bed. Little things like that or like organising your lunch for the next day. The things that filling up your car as well we mentioned.

0

526.6 - 541.295 Alex Hourigan

But that is because I am not a morning person and I have tried to be a morning person and we have also had so many amazing guests on the show who have given us step-by-step instructions on how to be a morning person and I still snooze my alarm like four times this morning.

0

541.495 - 542.616 Unknown

Scariest person you've ever met.

0

542.596 - 557.73 Alex Hourigan

Yeah, so honestly, especially if she's hungover. It's not good. Yeah, that is a beast within itself. Even the morning, even the closing shift I don't think could save me there. But little things like that as well.

0

557.77 - 575.146 Alex Hourigan

Sometimes I'll just put on like a 10-minute timer and I'm like and go and like see as much as I can get done in that time and it makes it feel so much more achievable because so many of those tasks as well you put off for like weeks or months and then when you finally do it, you're like, call that took 30 seconds.

575.506 - 576.367 Unknown

Yeah.

576.387 - 577.248 Alex Hourigan

Why am I like this?

577.328 - 582.193 Unknown

Even just like before, if you're not like, it's kind of seeing what works for you as well.

582.253 - 603.076 Unknown

There's also kind of on the flip side, a leave the house better rule, which I really enjoy as well, is that like whenever you're leaving for work or you're going out for the day, before you head out, it's doing one thing that just like leaves the house better because I don't know if anyone else is the same, but like when I'm getting ready, don't ask me what happened. I don't know.

Chapter 4: What are the benefits of an 'everything shower'?

756.253 - 777.702 Alex Hourigan

But when we were chatting with... you chicks, and even when we talk about this on the show, one of my favourite things about the things that make you feel rich in life is so often they're things that are free or at least things that are low cost. And, you know, there's that old saying, the best things in life are free. And it's a cliche but it's true, right? Yeah.

0

777.682 - 786.938 Alex Hourigan

Whether that is, you know, like sleeping in on a Saturday or calling up like your best friend and telling them a really embarrassing story.

0

786.978 - 813.945 Unknown

We came across this like theory or philosophical rule early in the year or like two years ago actually. Wow, time flies. And it's called the 100 hour rule. And it's basically the way it's presented in like its original status or online is that if you spend 18 minutes a day doing one thing, like if you wanted to start a hobby, let's say you wanted to learn Italian, right?

0

814.185 - 836.944 Unknown

If you spend 18 minutes a day learning Italian, by the end of the year, that would be 100 hours. Right? And so it's kind of how like the small things. But when we were talking about it, I was like imagine if you spent 18 minutes a day just on something that made you feel good. Because so often even when we're walking around and chatting, we'll be like, oh, how are you? How are you?

0

837.104 - 842.851 Unknown

And we all go, oh, busy. And it's like so true and so normal and so understandable. And we are busy.

843.091 - 843.772 Sally McMullen

Everyone in here is busy.

843.792 - 862.649 Unknown

Everyone is so busy. But at the end of the day, being busy isn't a personality trait and we don't get to the end of the lives and like I don't want that on my tombstone. Being like she was a beloved broke chick and really busy and I'm like, oh, great, that sounds fun. So like I don't want to look back on my life and feel like I just spent it being busy and I can't actually tell you what I did.

862.689 - 884.014 Unknown

So my New Year's resolution this year is, ...was not a single resolution but it was just to spend eighteen minutes a day... ...doing something that like made me happy. And being really conscious in like setting a timer or reading a book... ...or calling a friend or whatever it is. Even if it was eighteen minutes of sleeping in...

883.994 - 903.118 Unknown

And really at the end of the day knowing what that 18 minutes was because there's so many easy ways. Our brain naturally will go to like whatever pissed us off that day or whatever was annoying. If you missed the bus or if, you know, your boyfriend didn't unstack the dishwasher or something like that. That's mine. He didn't do it again. No, I'm kidding.

Chapter 5: What is the significance of 'future you favors'?

1067.026 - 1085.755 Alex Hourigan

Back in the Stone Age, collagen had only just been discovered. Seriously. Okay, next one. This or that, which of these collagen depleting habits is more common? Doom scrolling or lack of sleep under seven hours?

0

1086.646 - 1087.808 Unknown

This one's a tough one.

0

1087.828 - 1088.749 Alex Hourigan

Yeah, this one is a tough one.

0

1088.769 - 1099.863 Unknown

So doom scrolling is blue and lack of sleep is black. Wow, this is really mixed. But I think it's skewing a little bit more towards lack of sleep.

0

1100.183 - 1114.142 Alex Hourigan

In the latest research with YouGov and NTG, Aussie women engaged with doom scrolling as the number one habit which may cause collagen depletion through blue light. Boo!

1114.162 - 1114.782 Sally McMullen

I know.

1115.223 - 1115.303

Boo!

1115.772 - 1121.099 Unknown

So how many of us are going to actually stop Zoom scrolling before bed now? Raise of hands.

1121.219 - 1121.62 Alex Hourigan

No one.

Chapter 6: How important is sunscreen for skin health?

2313.582 - 2313.782 Alex Hourigan
