The $16 Mascara Swap Everyone's Making & Anti-Ageing Answers

Ready to make the supposedly "life-changing" switch from black to brown mascara? Leigh & Kelly are diving into whether brown mascara will actually leave you looking washed out....spoiler: they're here to tell you it's not the dramatic change you think it is! From creating your ultimate "mascara wardrobe" to discovering why certain eye colours absolutely shine with brown formulas, we share the go-to picks from affordable drugstore heroes to high-end cult favourites.

Then we're tackling the skincare struggle that's got everyone confused - how do you handle fine lines AND breakouts hitting at the same time? The girls are debunking the myth that you're "too young for anti-ageing but too old for acne products" once and for all. From retinol revelations (plot twist: it was actually created for breakouts!) to the storage hack that'll make your liquid makeup last longer, this episode is packed with game-changing beauty intel!
