The $6 Blush That Rivals Luxury Brands & The Secret To 3-Month Frizz-Free Hair

If your lips are feeling a little unloved as the cooler weather sets in, you're not alone. This week, Kelly is joined by Amy Clark (filling in for Leigh), and let’s just say they are both having a major lip product moment. They're breaking down the ultimate winter lip combo, including the $38 Mecca find that acts like the "Faber-Castell of lip stains" and the $15 nourishing balm that lets you choose between a "milkshake" or a "thick shake" finish.

Plus, Amy shares the $6 Kmart blush she immediately drove to buy after seeing it on Instagram, a pricey-but-worth-it at-home keratin treatment that claims to banish frizz for three months, and Kelly reveals the groundbreaking, contraband-photo-worthy $160 serum that literally had her flying all the way to Paris and London to investigate.
