Avoiding Counterfeit Products This Holiday Season and Diving Into the World of Dupes with MCO Beauty

This episode is full of counterfeit products and dupe talk, Glams! First, we make our plea for Miss Piggy to join us on the pod. We made our Wicked dreams come true, now we just need Miss “Moi” herself to join us. Then, we’ve partnered with the Personal Care Product Council to help keep you from buying fraudulent and potentially dangerous products this holiday season. We know it’s easy to want a good deal, but there are some real red flags to look out for.

For the headlines portion of the show, we discuss a new Bloomberg article about MCO Beauty, the Australian beauty brand that’s made a name for itself by copying some of your favorite brands, from packaging design to inspired formulas. Kirbie changed her tune (kind of) after reading the story. And will we be getting better sunscreens in the U.S.? Possibly. We break down the FDA’s update to sunscreen requirements.
