On this episode, chemist Balanda Atis, the head of L'Oréal's Multicultural Beauty Lab and Face Lab, talks about how she develops foundation formulas, expanding shade ranges, the myth of makeup "oxidation," and the secret to a great mascara. Plus, we discuss Disney beauty collabs for grownups and salute Intern Tiff (we love you Tiff!!!).
A Message from Intern Tiff:
Dear Listeners,
Thank you so much for all your support throughout this journey with me! You’re a HUGE part of my experience (seriously, you have no idea). I absolutely loved meeting some of you at the Davines party a few months back.
This isn’t goodbye, just goodbye for now. Stay connected! Follow me on IG @tiffanykarishma. I’m honored to be walking away with tons of new friends!
XOXO,
Tiff
