November 16, 2022Ep. 453: Scent-Styling, Subscription Boxes & The Week’s Beauty News
We’re answering so many pressing questions this week: Are beauty subscription boxes still worth getting? Why are interior designers offering scent-styling to clients? What does the EmFace treatment feel like? (Jenn tried it.) And, most importantly: Do people look like their dogs? Plus, Jess may finally convince Jenn to watch Real Housewives, a listener raises a wand to a hand cream, and we share a powder, cream, and liquid bronzer we like.
