The Beauty Lessons Pia Whitesell Wishes She’d Learned Sooner

This week, Leigh and Kelly investigate the ice-cold world of TikTok facial dunking - does freezing your face actually work? The science is limited, but the temporary "snatched" effect might be worth it after a few vinos. Skip the full plunge and try their practical alternatives instead. Plus, as Bella Hadid champions the return of the side part, Leigh and Kelly reveal which 2025 trends she's selectively ignoring. Kelly embraces mulberry tones this season, while Leigh focuses on skincare innovations rather than fleeting aesthetics.

Put down that expensive eye cream and listen up! Kelly and Leigh are back, swooning over everything from bougie double-wick candles that "waft differently" to serums that made Leigh's face tingle so hard she had to frantically Google whether she'd just destroyed her skin in a hotel room (spoiler: she woke up looking fantastic). The duo's K-Beauty obsession reaches new heights as they marvel over ingenious "baby trampoline" applicators and microscopic spicules that transform skin overnight. Between turtle neck tangents and candle critiques, they hunt for skin magic and why Kelly's rationing a $209 serum to "maybe twice a week.

Celebrities are masters at keeping us guessing – private chefs, secret trainers, and now the latest beauty investment they're tight-lipped about? Those suspiciously "natural" facelifts sporting many A-list faces! Kelly chats with plastic surgeon Dr. Catherine Boorer about these $45K + procedures, including the shocking truth about recovery time (hint: it's not the weekend getaway celebrities make it seem!). Plus, Dr Boorer shares her science-backed skincare routine that doesn't require a Hollywood budget, and which trendy products are actually worth investing in versus what's just expensive moisturiser. Whether you're just nosy about what the rich and famous are doing to their faces or considering options for yourself, this episode cuts through the Hollywood smoke and mirrors with some seriously refreshing honesty.
