Jess tells us what Fraxel is really like, then we have a wide-ranging beauty chat about: the heat-sensitive bottles in Addison Rae’s “science-backed” perfume line; whether makeup value sets are worth their listed prices; the MAC collection from Blackpink’s Lisa; the conclusion of Jay Z’s perfume legal battle; a health warning about biotin supplements; and new scientific research based on Cardi B’s belief that a thottie “never gets cold.” Plus, Jenn & Jess Raise a Wand to their (current) favorite skin-musk scents and send a big Fat Mascara Family hug to listener Anna, who found a $7 mascara that holds up to her tears.
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.
