What's the weirdest thing you've ever found in your bellybutton?
 
Clearly our wider team at Adore Beauty weren't that keen to share their stories, but we discovered all the sh*t in Hannah's childhood memory box, what our belly buttons collect, and why we seem to always find fluff in there.
 
Whether you’re on the hunt for skincare advice, wanting to share your best beauty tips, or are just looking for someone to indulge in a cringey convo with, the Beauty IQ FB Community has got ya covered! Join our FB group today.
