After one company’s silicone wrinkle patches went viral, they calculated that the sales bump put five extra tons of trash into landfills. So, the company started a wrinkle-patch recycling program. Will it make a difference? We discuss—and share some of our favorite programs for recycling beauty and fashion trash. Plus, there’s an uptick in skin damage from bad laser facials, and dermatologists are looking for new ways to treat side effects like hypopigmentation. Also in this episode: Jess’s trick for the perfect lip color; an Allergan Aesthetics grant program for women entrepreneurs; more thoughts on Jeremy Fragrance; our latest candle obsession; a discount code for Jenn’s favorite makeup-removing balm; and new Raise A Wand homework! Tell us about your favorite *cosmetically elegant* hydrating serums that don’t feel sticky or tacky.
Below you’ll find a list of some of the people, topics, and products mentioned in this episode. If you have any questions (or just want to say hi), reach out to us on Instagram or TikTok or via email (info@fatmascara.com). And please email us voice memos of your beauty questions and Raise A Wand favorites so we can share them on the show.
