DIY Eyeliner Stamps and The K-Beauty Blush That Costs Less Than A Week of Coffee
In this lol-worthy episode of Tried & Tested, Sarah Marie dives headfirst into TikTok's wild world of beauty hacks, testing a viral eyeliner wing stamp made from—wait for it—a pill packet and cotton tip. Spoiler alert: unless you've got a hot glue gun and several hours to spare, despite its 23.8 million views, this hack leaves plenty to be desired. But all is not lost when Liv reveals her latest K-Beauty obsession which previously broke the internet in Korea - its a blush with that perfect not-too-dewy finish.

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)!
