The dogs are out, and Kelly McCarren and Amy Clark are back answering your juiciest, cringiest and crustiest beauty dilemmas.
On this episode of The Fix, Amy responds to a question from a listener about cracked heels and dry feet, with her tried-and-tested solution that only costs $4. Plus, is it terrible to wear makeup to bed? A first-sleepover makeup dilemma has us re-thinking the rules.
We also discuss a seriously relatable conundrum: what to do when you’ve found a skincare routine that works for you, but can no longer justify (or afford) the price tag. We’re here to help with a list of budget-friendly alternatives to popular bougie skincare favourites.
