MAMAMIA PODCASTS
About this episode

Acne, Backne, Butne...Here’s how to get rid of it and when you might need a dermatologist’s help.

And, we need to talk about the beauty habits that make us irrationally angry. From misleading influencers to skincare sins that make us cringe.

Plus, it's not your makeup. It's your skincare. We reveal the real culprit behind that less-than-perfect base. Kelly & Leigh are sharing their go-to hacks to conquer dry, patchy makeup.
