About this episode
Kelly’s fresh off a whirlwind 50-hour trip to Singapor where she learned the wild science behind some of Australia's most popular beauty products (including a secret observation shower room with a dedicated perfumer!). Plus, Leigh and Kelly dive into the massive return of Marc Jacobs Beauty to Sephora and the new beauty subscription box changing the game.
Then, we’re opening up the mailbag for a massive spring cleaning Q&A. Leigh and Kelly spill their step-by-step systems to audit your makeup, skincare, hair, and SPF stashes without getting overwhelmed, plus how to decipher those tiny expiry symbols. And for anyone struggling to make lip liner look natural, we share our best smudgy, non-paddle-pop application hacks.
Finally, we wrap up with Spendy Savey, featuring a viral $22 jelly nail polish, a surprisingly good $7 multi-glow stick, a rich plumping moisturiser, and a precision liquid eyeliner that works like a dream.
