You Beauty

In this week's Q&A episode, Leigh and Kelly unlock the beauty industry's version of the Nagi Maehashi effect – proving that premium ingredients are non-negotiable whether you're whipping up caramel slice or your skincare routine!

We spill the tea on those PR freebies - tackling the question everyone's been dying to ask: just how many of those beauty products do Leigh & Kelly actually pay for? Plus, we navigate that delicate mother-daughter territory of teen body hair (we've ALL been there!) with advice ranging from beginner-friendly shaving techniques to investment-worthy laser treatments.

AND Leigh's genius illuminator hack that brightens tired eyes in seconds!

Remember when frosted eyeshadow was EVERYWHERE? Freaking out that it's BACK?! Kelly and Sarah Marie are diving into decades of iconic makeup trends to find out which vintage looks deserve a spot in your 2025 rotation (and which should stay buried in the past)!

From the 20s glam that inspired today's "cold girl" aesthetic to the 70s bronzed glow that TikTok can't get enough of, we're separating the timeless from the tragic (spoiler: those 90s pencil-thin brows are NEVER coming back, Youbies). Sarah Marie spills her genius hack for creating those trending soft waves without spending a fortune on tools, while the girls debate whether that ultra-glossy red lip deserves its current comeback moment.
