Desperate Times, Creative Measures: Hotel Room Hacks & Glycolic Armpits
About this episode
Em tests an emergency beauty hack after finding herself in a hotel room with a full face and no cleanser. Can moisturiser effectively remove makeup when you're in a pinch? She compares the results to micellar water to determine if this old-school trick deserves its viral TikTok revival.
Meanwhile, Erin continues her glycolic acid experiments by testing whether it can replace your deodorant. After recruiting her husband for an extra sweaty test run, she reveals if these chemical exfoliant pads can truly combat underarm odour and hyperpigmentation as social media dermatologists claim.
