Beauty and politics are inseparable — from how politicians style their hair and makeup before addressing the nation to how tattoos became tools for resistance. 

In this comprehensive episode, we’ll explore politics from Elizabethan England to modern-day D.C., where we’ll interview Michelle Obama’s makeup artist, Carl Ray. We’ll then travel all the way to the Filipino village of Buscalan, to hear from a 107-year-old tattoo artist, Apo Whang-od, and tattoo anthropologist Lars Krutak.
