In this week’s Tuesday episode, we’ve got all the details on brow lamination from Giselle Soto. Plus, cosmetic chemist Trefor Evans helps us get to the bottom of a beauty debate: Is silicone really that bad for your hair? And there’s also lots of news to discuss: the rise of e-girl makeup; magazine beauty award results; how your posture affects your dental health; why some people are addicted to sunshine; and more.
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).
