What is UPF clothing and how does it actually protect you for UV rays? So glad you asked! We explain the technology, tell you about some of our favorite brands, and share an easy hack for making your own sun-protective clothing at home. We also chat about #cryptocosmetics from e.l.f. Cosmetics; sunscreen-scented dog-poop bags (?!); a Lisa Frank lawsuit; the Environmental Working Group's product-labeling initiative; and animal-friendly news at major fashion labels, including Canada Goose. Plus, a listener tells us about her must-have eyeshadow and we Raise A Wand to our favorite products of the week.
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. You can also leave us a voicemail to be featured on a future podcast (our phone number in the U.S. is at 646-481-8182).
