ALL ABOUT HER with Soha Ali Khan ft. Anya Singh & Dr. Farida Modi | Skincare Sins, Pigmentation, Skin Myths & What No One Tells You

Is skincare really about taking care of your skin… or have we unknowingly created more confusion than clarity?

On All About Her, we open up conversations that sit at the intersection of beauty, science, and modern womanhood. In this episode, we dive deep into one of the most common yet misunderstood skin concerns today: pigmentation....especially in Indian skin and the habits, myths, and misinformation surrounding it.

Joining Soha Ali Khan for this insightful conversation are actor Anya Singh and dermatologist Dr. Farida Modi.

Soha sets the tone by exploring how our relationship with skincare has evolved — from routines and experimentation to overwhelm driven by social media trends and constant advice overload. As the conversation unfolds, Dr. Farida breaks down the science behind skin types, the Fitzpatrick scale, and why Indian skin is more prone to pigmentation and stubborn marks.

Anya shares her personal journey with skincar... from acne phases and experimentation to moments of confusion, learning, and unlearning in her routine.

Together, they unpack the “skincare sins” many of us unknowingly commit — from over-exfoliation and DIY remedies to product hopping and trend-based skincare. The episode also addresses long-standing myths around fairness creams, natural ingredients, waxing, and whether pigmentation can truly be permanent or reversible.

Dr. Farida explains the deeper science behind pigmentation — from melanin production and triggers like sun exposure, hormones, acne, and pollution, to why the skin barrier plays a crucial role in how our skin reacts and heals.

The discussion also highlights what truly works in skincare today — science-backed ingredients, consistent routines, and the importance of combining targeted treatment with daily protection like sunscreen.

Because skincare isn’t about doing more — it’s about understanding your skin better, unlearning misinformation, and making informed choices that actually support long-term skin health.
