From using your concealer for instant hair highlights to a trending plant extract promising to change hair removal forever, Leigh Campbell and Kelly McCarren are putting on their lab coats and putting beauty myths to the test.

If you’ve ever wondered what on earth the difference is between BB creams, CC creams, and tinted moisturisers, we've got the ultimate cheat sheet along with 9 of our absolute favourite base products. Plus, we investigate the cyperus rotundus plant extract: is it a genuine hair removal game-changer or complete snake oil?

Then in Spendy Savey, Leigh shares a brand new vegan PDRN eye cream for under $15 that punches way above its price tag, while Kelly reveals the secret paste that helped get rid of a pesky hormonal breakout overnight.
