Mel and Hannah are back, and there’s a new mini in town! Hannah catches us up on baby Mila and newborn life.

This week’s episode covers everything from red carpet glam to peeling heels, so strap in.
First up, we’re talking cracked heels. You know that thick, dry heel skin that no amount of body lotion can fix? Hannah’s figured out how to get rid of it, but Mel also has some historically excellent (and gross) tools for anyone who gets weird satisfaction out of bits of dead skin coming off their feet. We break down what actually works on stubborn hard skin, how to avoid overdoing it (because yes, you absolutely can) and the one method that really delivers.

Then, the ladies are joined by makeup artist and Senior Editor at Fashion Journal, Lara Daly, who has been perfecting her recreation of the 'Nina Park Lip'. If you’ve been watching red carpets lately and wondering why everyone from Emma Stone to Jessie Buckley’s lips look softly blurred, perfectly lined, but not overdone? That’s thanks to Hollywood makeup artist Nina Park. Lara tells us the secret to that diffused, pillowy lip finish, why precise liner placement matters more than overlining, and the skin-first approach that makes the whole look feel modern. Plus, does it work for everyday, not just the red carpet?

And Mel finally puts the internet-famous K18 AirWash Dry Shampoo to the test. After blowing up on social media with claims it’s “not like other dry shampoos”, Mel gives her honest, unfiltered verdict: Does it actually absorb oil? Does it leave buildup? Is it worth the price tag? And who will love it — and who should skip it?
