A question from an "elder millennial" has Leigh and Kelly breaking down the retinol strength debate: is it better to use a mild formula more frequently or a stronger one just once a week? Sharing their personal experiences and product recommendations for different retinol strengths that might work for sensitive skin.
Plus, they tackle why fragrances might be disappearing too quickly. Is your perfume actually vanishing within hours, or is something else happening? (Spoiler: your nose might be playing tricks on you!) Leigh and Kelly offer recommendations for long-lasting formulations that won't fade away by lunchtime.
And don't miss their genius host hacks - Kelly's trick for making black eyeshadow truly black (not blue!) and Leigh's emergency solution for covering grey roots when you're running late!
