Before Hollywood, Melissa George – who became a '90s icon as Angel Parrish on Home and Away – ventured into lifestyle media with a 90-minute video aimed at teens. The program covers nutrition, fitness and goal-setting, with this segment focused on skincare routines. While the advice feels refreshingly accessible, using everyday kitchen ingredients instead of pricey products, making these treatments also appears to be a lot of work! It's an admirable attempt to offer positive, health-focused content while broadening George’s appeal beyond soap stardom. In many ways, it anticipates the influencer-driven wellness culture of today – blending personal branding with lifestyle guidance – even if it lacks the interactivity and polish of modern social media content.
