The Silent Epidemic: How the 'rhode' Skincare Trend Is Fueling a Disturbing Rise in Social Media Addiction Among Teens

In an age where material obsession has become a badge of digital honor, the latest viral skincare line known as ‘rhode’ has ignited a firestorm of moral concern.

We are watching a generation trade their souls for a free lip balm.
