Ep. 220: Makeup for Men, Our Podcasting Secrets & The Week’s Beauty News

Hi, Fat Mascara Fam! In this episode, we bring you the week’s beauty news. Following up on our conversation from last week, we found out what one of the scientists from Clarisonic is up to; we also chat about Gucci Bloom’s new campaign, how perfumers brought a shipwrecked 150-year-old fragrance back to life, and—in Jenn’s science corner 🤓—goosebumps and why we get them. We also discuss how Zoom culture is leading more men to wear makeup, answer a listener question (hi, Marci!) about how podcasting remotely is going, and share two Raise A Wands from listeners.

Below you’ll find links to 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, Twitter, 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).
