Hey, Fat Mascara Family! This week, we’ve got an interview with photographer Nigel Barker, the reality TV host and former judge of America’s Next Top Model. He teaches us how to be better photographers (and subjects!); explains why preserving memories is important and how “smizing" is more than smiling with your eyes; and shares his tips and tricks for cutting his own hair. Plus: there’s help for anyone with stress-induced acne, the week’s beauty news (Drunk Elephant’s new hair and body lines, fake coronavirus remedies, and booming at-home hair color sales), and more.
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 audio files (info@fatmascara.com) or call us (646-481-8182) and leave a message with your beauty questions and #RaiseAWand favorites so we can share them on the show!
