Today we're talking about Colonic Irrigation by sharing two very different stories. Kee Reece has IBS and often gets Colonics, and Kelly McCarren? Well she once got a Groupon deal for a colonic, and let's just say it didn't go well. So what is a colonic? Is it bullshit or actually helpful? Kelly finds out with a little help from Kee...

We Tried A Colonic So You Don't Have To

Is your highlighter making you look like a 2016 disco ball instead of a dewy goddess? And could a specific scene in a viral thriller be the reason you're finally skipping your hair appointment? On today’s episode of The Fix, Kelly and Amy are getting into the nitty-gritty of summer beauty dilemmas, from the awkward reality of "smelly hair" when you're stretching out your washes to the best way to handle your business down south. Amy and Kelly get real about their pubic hair routines—including the kitchen scissor incident you have to hear to believe—and why the "bush" is officially back. If you're struggling with painful backne or wondering how to tell your partner their scalp needs a scrub without being a total jerk, we've got the expert-approved (and slightly rogue) advice you need to survive the season.

On the Beauty Edit, we’re unpacking the "New Year Glow" taking over TikTok, why "recession hair" is the ultimate 2026 vibe, and the "Housemaid" trend that has us all ditching the salon to embrace our roots.

The "Housemaid" Hair Trend & The Truth About Your Bikini Line

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/c8497771-e39e-4e98-8fde-b3c90170bb30/transcript

Is a serum that smells like a public swimming pool actually the secret to flawless skin, or have we finally gone too far? On today’s Spendy Savey, Amy reveals the "annoyingly good" liquid gold she used to save her face from flare-ups before her wedding, while Kelly discovers a drugstore base that starts white but magically transforms into the perfect summer glow. We’re deep-diving into "vegetarian snail jizz" for the plumpest skin of your life, the budget nail savior that fixes yellowing beds in one swipe, and why everyone is obsessed with a "galactic" eyeshadow throwback that looks like a pink sci-fi dream. Plus, Kelly shows off a Charlotte Tilbury palette so pretty she’s treating it like a literal museum artefact.

The $15 Base That Blurs Your Whole Face & A Bronzer Stick For Total Laziness

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/41a3f482-9021-4974-9e23-b3c90170722d/transcript

New year, new trends? It's New Years Eve and Lucinda and Chelsea are crystal ball-gazing into 2026 to predict the biggest fashion moments about to take over your wardrobe.

We’re breaking down the return of "ugly" fashion (hello, mismatched prints and dad sneakers), why Gen Z is officially cancelling matching activewear sets, and the unexpected "funnel neck" silhouette that’s about to replace your blazer.

Chelsea makes the case for the controversial return of fringe (yes, really) and Lucinda explains why "accessory addiction" is the new quiet luxury. Plus, we're getting into which trends have graduated from "emerging" to "commercial" – meaning they are actually worth your hard-earned cash.

EVERYTHING MENTIONED:

Chelsea's Boujie: Coach Suede Fringe Brooklyn Shoulder Bag 39 $950

Lucinda's Boujie: Next Nothing Ordinary Black Leather Funnel Neck Bomber Jacket $620

Chelsea's Budget: VRG GRL Sabrin Bubble Midi Skirt Cream $129

Lucinda's Budget: Summi Summi Sporty Shorty $179
