  • I have to really like something to take the time to review it… so here:

    One of my favorite beauty podcasts to listen to! I love the dynamic between Kirbie and Sara. Educational without being stuffy and entertaining like listening to two friends chat. I’ve tried to find other podcasts like this one after binging all their episodes but not many can compete. My fav episodes are when they bring in beauty brand founders. So more of those episodes pleaaseeee!

  • Product

    It would be nice if Sarah pronounced the “T” in the word PRODUCT or any other word ending with “CT”

    When listening to your podcast with ear piece , it’s disturbing….

    ( a bit… lol)

  • Informative and entertaining

    Adore this podcast, love the way they don’t shy away from any topics and manage to address controversy without being too gossipy or biased. I always enjoy the interviews as I like learning about founders or MUAs back stories and feel like the ladies ask interesting questions. I’ve learnt a lot from Kirbie and Sara ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

  • Wonderful escape from my everyday

    I do not work in this space but I love listening to everything beauty from these two. They are clearly knowledgeable and I trust their recommendations. They also feel approachable, kind, and nonjudgmental — which is exactly how I want to feel when learning about beauty.
