On this episode we’re getting a makeover…. from new hairstyles to new bodies— we explore the beauty myth, ask if anti-aging is anti-feminism, examine a century of beauty standards and beauty routines, we learn about face positivity and plastic surgery while telling you why a body shouldn’t be a trend. We also share our own beauty routines and talk about the procedures we’ve had done. This is part one of a two part episode.
