Jenn is back from her trip to Germany and all she brought Jess was…a treatment that helps with varicose veins! Listen in as she reports from the field (literally) on the benefits of Kneippen (undergoing hydrotherapy). Plus, Michael Edwards’ popular fragrance wheel gets an update, and lots of other fun beauty news: Sephora is upgrading its clean beauty standards; Paula’s Choice has a new owner; sales of lipstick (especially long-wear formulas) are rising; and more.
