Happy new episode, Fat Mascara Fam! This week, we've got the woman behind Jo Malone London's fragrances: Céline Roux. Before we interview her about what it takes to make a gorgeous perfume, there's news to discuss. First up: As the beauty world continues to promote products with the help of influencers and women and men with actual, real values, opinions, and followings (not just nameless models), sticky situations abound (see this past week's controversy surrounding L'Oréal U.K.'s model Amena Khan). We discuss the situation—and want to hear what you think, too (tweet us!). After that, we recap the Indie Beauty Expo in L.A., including some of our favorite new discoveries, and talk about the masking trend that isn't going anywhere.
Below are links to the products, brands, and people mentioned on the show. If you have any questions (or just want to say hi) reach out to us on Instagram, Twitter or via email (info@fatmascara.com).
