On this episode of SEX DRUGS AND SKINCARE, I sit down with special guest Macey Isaacs, recently featured on Netflix’s Funny AF, to talk about sleep and what happens to your skin when you don’t get enough of it.


We get into the real effects of sleep deprivation on the face and body—from dull skin, puffiness, dark circles, and accelerated aging to stress, hormones, and why no skincare product can completely cover up exhaustion. We also talk about the difference between temporary lack of sleep and chronic sleep deprivation, plus the lifestyle habits that quietly wreck your glow over time.


Macey brings the humor while we break down the science, the myths, and the reality of trying to look healthy when your nervous system is running on fumes.


If you’ve ever looked in the mirror after a bad night’s sleep and thought, “Why do I look completely different?” this episode is for you.
