    Celebrating the “comeback” of Peter Thomas Roth - “PTR” as they referred to him as - was shocking to hear. Celebrating an associate of Jeffrey Epstein is sickening.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Meet the "Foot Whisperer" Who Will Make You Rethink Regular Pedicures for Good
Q: When should someone consider seeing a podiatrist rather than a MediPedi professional?
If nails look abnormal, have thickening, deformities, signs of infection, or persistent issues that don't improve with standard care, it's prudent to consult a licensed medical professional such as a podiatrist or dermatologist.
Meet the "Foot Whisperer" Who Will Make You Rethink Regular Pedicures for Good
Q: What is a medical pedicure and how does it differ from a traditional spa pedicure?
A medical pedicure is a waterless, hygienic service that emphasizes health and disease prevention, often with collaboration to medical professionals; it avoids bullies and infections common in standard salons and focuses on nails and skin health rather than aesthetics alone.
7+ Ways to Elevate Your Everyday: “Scentscaping,” a Gwyneth-Approved Lip Balm and the Fragrance Trend to Skip with Curator-to-Know Cynthia Sakai
Q: Tell us one trend in beauty that is unconsidered or unnecessary.
The guest dismisses overly layered fragrance trends, arguing that layering dilutes the intention and artistry of the perfumer, preferring finished, sophisticated fragrances with clear design and balance.
Miranda Kerr’s 2026 Reset: Her High-Tech Beauty Routine, 6-Minute Arm Sculpting and the “Baller” Reason Why She’s Not Launching Any New Skincare This Year
Q: What do you do for your skin care routine now versus in your 30s?
I keep it simple: cleanse, mist, moisturize, then add a serum like Turmeric Glow Drops in the morning and Retinol Alternative Serum at night, with some light tech devices for support.
The Beauty Founder Giving Away His Fortune, “Looksmaxxing” Gone Too Far and the One Body Oil You Need This Summer
Q: What makes Sephora's Makeup by Mario collaboration with Mario's Beauty Booth significant for consumer engagement?
It represents a move from large influencer campaigns to brand-led, real-time, creator-focused content that deepens interaction with consumers through practical, demos and advice.
