When do ‘preventative’ injections cross the line and start making you look older? Can wearing a bra to bed really prevent sagging? And do you need to see a gynaecologist if you've never had sex? In this episode, we speak to Consultant Dermatologist and Specialist Cosmetic Injector, Dr Cara McDonald to get the truth about anti-ageing, skincare ingredients and cosmetic procedures. She gives her expert rating (out of 10) for the most popular skincare ingredients -  from your hyaluronic acids to your retinoids -  and if they’re really that great in the fight against ageing. We cover everything from why the operator is more important than the device, the dangers of over-filling and when removing all movement from your face can actually backfire…  Dr Mariam breaks down the serious risks of ‘cosmetic tourism’, the differences between a ‘Plastic Surgeon’ and ‘cosmetic surgeon’ and how to identify a properly credentialed practitioner. Plus, we settle the "to bra in bed or not to bra in bed" debate, and whether it has any proven impact on sagging. And, in our quick consult, Dr Mariam answers a listener’s question about whether you still need to see that doctor if you've never done the deed.

Kelly was in tears over a Gucci gift—a $2000+ collection of The Alchemist's Garden fragrances.

In this final, Spendy Savey of the year, Leigh and Kelly cover the biggest finds across all price points. Leigh reveals a once-secret, highly-clinical skincare brand that’s about to go mainstream (and why it’s worth the splurge). Meanwhile, Kelly drops a bombshell with a Nivea serum (a $42 drugstore product), that has the feel and results of an expensive competitor, making it a dream for summer skin.

We've all been there: you walk into a vintage store, feel instantly overwhelmed by the "dress uppy" costumes and confusing eras, and leave with nothing. This week, Leigh is talking to vintage expert Tara Rowe, owner of the viral vintage wedding dress store Call Me The Breeze, about how to actually succeed at secondhand shopping. Tara explains why the secret isn't thrifting (which involves rummaging), but finding curated resellers who act as your personal "conduit" for the good stuff. She shares her tips for finding sellers who match your niche, why 90s fashion is the most in-demand era, and why there’s nothing cooler than saying "Oh, this? It's vintage."

This episode is a gift to your face! It's the grand finale, the last Q&A of the year is officially HERE! We're unleashing the essential, non-negotiable party hacks you need to conquer the holidays including a detailed eyelash curler masterclass where Leigh passionately defends the tool (even admitting she'd take it to Survivor!), and reveals her three-step technique for a perfect, breakage-free curl and naming the heroes worth your cash. Plus, we're settling a major beauty debate: Do those added skincare ingredients in primers (yes, looking at you, Go-To and e.l.f.) actually do anything when they're layered over your full routine? They can't hurt, but can they help? And finally, Kelly & Leigh drop some top-tier festive tips, including how to use boob tape for that perfect lift in any plunge dress and a genius hack using eyeshadow primer to stop face sweat—because we schvitz!

Lucinda argues they're chic (when balanced with an oversized shirt), while Chelsea thinks they're a "worst nightmare" for anyone who likes to be comfortable. They're also unpacking the biggest trends coming for your wardrobe, from the polarising jort and cargo denim to the "watch this space" double waistband jeans. Plus, they each bring one denim piece—a midi skirt and a classic denim jacket—and show you exactly how to style them for all four seasons.

Ever wondered who is behind the iconic "Fashion Critical" account? This week, Leigh's managed to sneak in Australia’s most mysterious fashion commentator to the Mamamia offices (in disguise... obviously) to spill all her red carpet secrets. They're the anonymous voice we all turn to for the real commentary on everything from the Brownlow to the Met Gala, and they're not holding back. They're breaking down the biggest fashion crimes they see time and time again, from the dreaded "naked dress" to the accessories they'd ban forever. They're revealing how it all started, how their commentary has changed from "savage" to "satirical,". We’re getting the official glossary for all their iconic terms, from what "crotch whiskers" actually are, to why "should have caught the bus" is the ultimate insult. Plus, they spill on the celebrity DMs they've received—including the ones who weren't happy—and why the Oscars red carpet is actually the most boring one of the year.

Forget everything you thought you knew about hair removal: the full bush is officially back, and Abbie Chatfield says it might even be the secret to better orgasms! Welcome to The Full Bush Renaissance, the major cultural mood shift of 2025. Women everywhere are opting out of the exhausting cycle of shaving, waxing, and quiet shame… and Abbie shares the shocking story of how she was dropped from a major brand deal simply for choosing to show her body hair and keep things real. We set the scene with all the awards-night beauty, chaos and gossip before diving into Abbie’s world: from the very quirky pre-show ritual her boyfriend Adam Hyde swears by (yes, it involves her undies) to how she deals with constant online criticism and body shaming. Abbie shares her full curly hair routine for summer frizz, and the secret to her resilient skin — including her affordable holy-grail $11 CeraVe balm.

They're revealing the winning formula behind al.ive's success, why they're obsessed with making products that look gorgeous AND actually work, how launching during COVID's first week accidentally became their biggest break, and what it really costs to keep their products palm oil-free (spoiler: it's a lot, but they're committed to sustainability).

Is your skin ready to be drenched in butter? And could a foundation-slash-primer that melts into your skin be the secret to the ultimate "no-makeup makeup" look? On this week's Spendy Savey, Leigh has cracked the code on a Canadian import, a lightweight base from G Beauty that took two years to get to Australia and gives the most incredible, diffused glow. Kelly, meanwhile, is slathering on the Bare Minerals Skinlongevity Butter Drenched Cream, which is everything you love about a rich moisturiser but finishes like a cooling gel. Plus, prepare for major enabling as we debate the absolute perfection of the new Holme Beauty The One Eyeshadow Palette (it's a splurge, but trust us, it's worth it), and discover the new Weleda Skin Food Super Serum that delivers that iconic hydration without the thickness. It's proof that sometimes the best beauty secrets are under $40, and sometimes they're worth the two-year wait. Get ready to update your routine with all the phenomenal newness!

Every 30 seconds, someone buys a Lanolips 101 Ointment - here's how a sheep farm memory became a global beauty empire. This week on The Formula, founder Kirsten Carriol breaks down what it takes to build a brand that lasts in the age of viral trends. We're exploring how Kirsten's childhood memory of lanolin from her grandparents' sheep farm became the ultimate solution for chronically cracked lips - a problem the massive beauty industry kept getting wrong. She reveals why viral balms are often 'duds,' the crucial distinction between creating a product for Instagram "aesthetic" versus one that actually works, and how a long-haul flight moment led her to launch a brand that counts Lindsay Lohan and Gigi Hadid among its fans. If you've ever been frustrated by lip balms that promise the world but deliver absolutely nothing, this episode is for you!

Kelly's bringing the Kylie Jenner Lip Glaze Kit back, and Leigh's replacement for her cordless GHD? Let's just say it caused some tension in the studio!

Your social calendar is packed and your bank account is nervous! Tamara and Lucinda are here to save both your style and your savings with their event dressing masterclass. They're breaking down the viral "white tank theory" that's taking over TikTok - basically, if you can walk into a party in a basic singlet and still be the chicest person there, you're officially "that girl."

She's witnessed the biggest shift in beauty media history - from magazines dictating trends to 10-year-olds demanding retinol. This week on The Formula, former Elle Australia Editor-in-Chief Justine Cullen breaks down the "Sephora tween" phenomenon reshaping the beauty industry. We're exploring how kids as young as 9 skip skincare basics for complex routines, why brands chase tweens with $60-100 products (pushing adults toward $250 lipsticks), and the rise of birthday parties at beauty stores. Justine reveals how the pandemic created mini skincare experts, why teenagers now say "do my skincare" when stressed, and her predictions for this youth-obsessed beauty world. Get ready for serious insights into how capitalism is targeting childhood - and what it means for beauty's future.

We've all been there - that midnight scroll that ends with a cart full of regret, or falling for a "bargain" that sits unworn with tags still on. This week, Tamara Holland and Lucinda Pikkat are taking over the pod while Leigh's away, diving deep into our biggest shopping mistakes and how to actually fix them. They're unpacking the psychology behind "consolation prize" shopping - you know, when you can't afford the designer piece you really want, so you end up buying cheaper versions that never quite hit the mark. Spoiler alert: you usually end up spending more money and feeling less satisfied! Plus, they're tackling the dangerous world of late-night shopping (we see you, 3am feeds and doom scrolling), buying fantasy pieces for lives we don't actually lead, and the trap of shopping for our "dream bodies" instead of the ones we have right now.

She's the beauty journalist turned skincare founder who survived one of the biggest cancel culture storms in beauty history. This week on The Formula, Susan Yara is revealing how she went from reviewing products to creating Naturium - one of the most talked-about skincare brands in the industry, built on the philosophy of "biocompatible" formulations that actually work with your skin.

This episode is about to make you very mad at your expensive makeup brushes and very obsessed with smelling like confidence. Get ready for a $6 Amazon brush that applies foundation better than tools ten times the price, Zoe Foster Blake's new fragrances that smell like pure confidence in a bottle, and the kind of luxury skincare that lets you be completely lazy while still waking up glowing.

Picture this: You're at the top of your game at Australia's biggest beauty retailer, then you quit to bet everything on bodycare. Not once, but twice. Sounds like a risky move, right? When two former beauty executives leave their dream jobs to launch a bodycare brand, the industry pays attention. When that first brand sells out in 72 hours, people take notice. But when they follow it up by launching a second brand that flies off supermarket shelves nationwide? That's when you know you're dealing with serial entrepreneurs who've cracked the code. Camille and Georgie, the founders behind Bronte and SOMA, share their journey from corporate beauty to launching two successful Australian brands. They reveal what it takes to succeed in the competitive beauty market, the personal story behind the Bronte name (featuring Camille's 99-year-old Italian grandmother), and their honest takes on cult products versus overhyped launches.

The former Home and Away star just revealed she'd "one thousand percent" discourage teenage modelling - despite winning Dolly's competition herself at 14.  At 41, Pia Whitesell has never felt more comfortable in her skin, which is exactly why Olay chose her as their new ambassador. This week, Kelly's chatting with the actress about her complete beauty evolution and why the Hello Better Me campaign speaks to women who want progress over perfection. She's serving up some serious reality checks about the modelling industry, why becoming a mum changed everything about her beauty priorities, and how she's learned that "the most powerful beauty ritual is backing yourself." Plus, she spills on her Kardashian-level glam for her 40th birthday and opens up about learning to love the one facial quirk that used to make her feel insecure.

Could a moisturiser that feels like water be the secret to perfectly hydrated skin? Is it worth enduring a burning sensation for the plumpest lips of your life? On today's Spendy Savey, Leigh's found a gel-cream moisturiser that is a tall drink of water for your face, while Kelly is testing a lip plumper so intense it comes with a warning, she even puts it on at the start of the episode to show us the live time results.

She breaks down her foolproof 30-day shopping rule that stops impulse purchases in their tracks, reveals why she uses ChatGPT to create flat-lay images for vintage pieces, and explains how "social styling" lets strangers play dress-up with your digital wardrobe.  EVERYTHING MENTIONED: Leigh's Budget: Cremme Classic T-Shirt V2 - White $69.00 Jamie-Lee's Budget: H&M Wide Ultra High Jeans $49.99 Leigh's Boujie: Eden Mocha Leather Shoulder Bag $329.00 Jamie-Lee's Boujie: Aeyde Judi Suede Pumps $680.00 GET YOUR FASHION FIX: Watch us on Youtube this episode goes live at 8pm tonight!

History is written in lipstick, not ink! This week we chat to Mecca's Chief Purpose Officer, Lisa Keenan, about the Mecca Archive: a tribute to the women, products, and defining moments that have shaped beauty culture since the year 2000. This archive isn't just about products; it's a living record of beauty's culture and its power of storytelling. They explore the most significant shifts of the last 25 years: the rise of wellness culture, the emergence of "skintelligence", the no-makeup makeup phenomenon and how social media helped consumers rewrite the beauty rulebook.
