  • Not loving anymore

    I enjoyed this podcast a lot more when Joanna Fleming was the co-host, as he dermal knowledge was interesting to listen to. Also since Jo has left, Hannah seems super disinterested and almost “over it”. The chemistry between the hosts seems off, almost like they don’t get along. I listen sometimes but it’s not my go-to anymore. Also even though I’ve had two children myself, I’m not interested in listening to pregnancy content. There are plenty of other podcasts for that.

  • A good listen

    Amending my review down a star unfortunately I’m not loving the new format this year… and whilst I still enjoy it from time of time it no longer is the top of my queue..

    I quite enjoy this podcast, especially the openness of the hosts and the different guests. I love the short throwbacks too; it’s great to have some 10min podcasts to listen to on my lunch break! It’s not the most progressive podcast however it’s easy to understand why, as it quite literally only exists to advertise. It’s a pro... more

  • This podcast has changed!

    This podcast has gone downhill, they used to have interesting conversations and now it’s basically just one big ad where they review like 500 products from Adore Beauty every episode. I actually bought more of the products they recommended when they only mentioned a few per episode, now it’s so overwhelming I don’t even bother to look products up. How could they think this is a good idea??
