2025 PWDKWN round up

PWDKWN gone rogue

Peak & Pit of 2025

Then, we reveal our peaks and pits of 2025. The nausea, the bubs, and the people that stuck by us. 

A big thank you to everyone who listened, shared, and DM’d us this year. See you in 2026!

Benefit Fan Fest Mascara

Beauty Wrapped 2025: The Viral Hits & Misses 

Mel's baby in the studio

Trends & burning out

Therabody face mask

Sleeping

This week on Uncensored, we discuss the rise in consumer fatigue over complicated beauty routines, never-ending product releases, and the social pressure to keep up with self-care. Is this overconsumption causing mass burnout?

 

Putting mindfulness first, we chat through the rituals that actually make us feel good, redefining the 'everything shower' in more holistic terms. Think cleansing, sensory stimulation and breathwork. Of course, there are a few beauty tools we love and recommend that help us stay zen.

 

The beauty of sleep? Melissa recounts her two-day trip away from her son, Joey. And spoiler: it involved a good night's rest.

 

Everything mentioned:
Therabody TheraFace Mask Glo
Therabody Theraface LED Mask
