The Sunday, 05 July episode of Carte Blanche investigates how social media is reshaping childhood, with growing numbers of preteen girls becoming obsessed with skincare trends and “Get Ready With Me” videos that encourage them to “correct” their skin.
The programme explores how peer pressure and the pursuit of online validation are driving tweens to adopt elaborate skincare routines using products intended for adults, despite warnings from dermatologists that these products can damage young skin.
