This week, we’re switching things up! So, please enjoy a throwback photo of us ⬆ because we don’t have a formal interview in this episode. Instead, we invited former guest (and beauty industry expert) Christopher Skinner back to chat about all things sustainability, in a segment sponsored by his agency, School House. Christopher talks about how everything from packaging to the way products are displayed in stores impacts sustainability. Also in this episode: Jess memorializes the Nordstrom location where she discovered beauty, we share the week’s beauty news, and we talk about which beauty supplements really work.
Below, you’ll find links to the people, topics, and products mentioned in this episode. If you have any questions (or just want to say hi) reach out to us on Instagram, Twitter or via email (info@fatmascara.com). And please email us voice memos of your beauty questions and Raise A Wand favorites so we can share them on the show, or call us at 646-481-8182, and leave us a message. We love hearing from you.
