You Beauty

We've Been Keeping A Secret...

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/0f4735ec-5bc4-4344-8333-b45f000de477/transcript

Forgot about Halloween until roughly five minutes ago? Same. Kelly’s here to save you (and your wallet) with last minute spooky looks you can create with what’s already in your makeup bag. Think dental floss cobwebs, toilet paper ‘wounds’ and a fishnet stocking trick that turns Leigh into a mermaid in 20 seconds flat. 

Poor Leigh is not coping... mostly while Kelly cycles through three increasingly unhinged alter-egos thanks to her three-for-the-price-of-one costume this year. Plus, how do lash serums work? We break down what’s on Aussie shelves, with a list of budget picks under $30. And sure, it’s technically still October, but that’s not stopping Leigh from cracking open the gorgeous Go-To 12-day advent calendar.

Then in Spendy Savey, Kelly’s found the new tubular version of a cult mascara that’s been selling out everywhere. And Leigh’s frothing over a $12 Kmart eyeshadow stick pack that you're going to want to add to cart immediately.

Leigh's $12 Kmart Obsession & Lazy Girl Halloween Makeup Hacks

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/fd1ea20b-8088-4250-b281-b4f200317543/transcript

The beauty industry has had a busy year... From Kylie Jenner wearing Victoria’s Secret’s multi-million-dollar Fantasy Bra to Hailey Bieber’s controversial stance on overconsumption—meanwhile several celebrity brands quietly shut their doors.

In today's Monthly Masterclass, Leigh Campbell, Erin Docherty, and Ali Izzo deep dive into the biggest beauty controversies of the last 12 months. The ones that blew up your feed, divided the comments section, and in a few cases, sent brand founders straight to their socials to do damage control.

They unpack the rise of extreme beauty tourism, from Aussie influencers travelling to Seoul for a facelift and Bali for rib contouring. Plus, a look at the beauty brands who beefed this year and is the TGA about to scrap SPF numbers on sunscreens?

Monthly Masterclass: The Biggest Beauty Controversies Of 2026

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/80d77c02-dfb1-455a-8818-b4ee01548428/transcript

Mamamia’s Head of You Beauty, Ali Izzo, is joining Leigh today while poor Kelly rests her completely non-existent voice, and Ali's here with a very special announcement! The voting lines for the Youbies Choice Categories in the 2026 You Beauty Awards are officially open, and you have until 11:59pm Sunday the 1st of November to cast your votes! 

In Beauty News Leigh debriefs her recent appearance on a very special Mamamia Out Loud bonus episode for World Menopause Day and because we couldn't resist... We’re unboxing another beauty advent calendar this time from Oz Hair and Beauty. Then in Q&A, we’re talking next-level blonde maintenance tips to keep the brass tone at bay and where on earth did cupid's bows go in 2026?!

Then it's Ali's very first time doing Spendy Savey and she's brought in her favourites to show you, including the 'Tomato Blush' that left Leigh's poker face looking highly questionable...
