Hair-repair treatments are so confusing! In this episode, we break down the differences between K18, Olaplex, bond builders, split-end menders, and other assorted hair damage treatments. We’ll also get you up to speed on the beauty news: the truth about blue-light damage; new CVS research on how we respond to photo retouching; the most-searched skincare brands; changes at Givenchy Beauty; and a perfume that smells like…Van Gogh.
Below you’ll find a list of some of 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 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.
