  • The Products, Trends and Headlines That Ruled 2024
    Dec 21 2024

    2025 is just around the corner, but before we pop the champagne, we’re looking back at everything that made 2024 unforgettable. Let’s start with the tiny details: it was officially the Year of the Pipsqueak (affectionate), thanks to the powerhouse that is 5-foot-tall Sabrina Carpenter and the larger-than-life, but smaller-than-average cast of Wicked.


    We’re also revisiting some of the year’s biggest beauty headlines, from the billion dollar trend of Superbowl beauty commercials to the drama surrounding that Givenchy powder scandal. And of course, no year-end wrap-up would be complete without a breakdown of the most viral products of the year, including Milk’s Jelly Tint, every single bronzing drop, and the obsession that was Cherry Cola lips. It’s been a wild ride—let’s relive it all one more time!

  • Patrick Ta Beauty, Hair Color Litigation Chaos and More TikTok Drama
    Dec 18 2024

    It may be the end of the year, but the drama continues, especially over on TikTok! First, we discuss the controversy surrounding Patrick Ta and influencer Avonna Sunshine, who claimed she wasn’t paid for promoting his beauty products. We chat through Patrick Ta's public apology, the how this issue highlights a bigger one within the creator community, and how the beauty industry can do better.


    Next, we unravel the viral “Gray Blonde” saga involving a hairstylist, an unhappy client, and what happens when there is a miscommunication. We explore why clear communication and realistic expectations are so crucial when it comes to hair transformations, and why you maybe shouldn't take every personal problem you have to TikTok.


    And finally, we talk about Lindsay Lohan. Her latest appearance has everyone asking: is it skincare, injectables, or something else? We get into it.
