The $42 price tag on Patrick Ta’s new eyeshadow duo annoyed many in the beauty community, and we’re digging into why that might be. Have we been conditioned by the implied value of larger eye palettes? Is it general inflation anger? Dupe culture? Jenn & Garret discuss. Plus: An unprecedented counterfeit Botox scam; research showing needles for cosmetic injections are deformed quicker than providers may realize; and Jess, Jenn, and Garrett share the best facials (and aestheticians) in New York City.
