“I’m ready for spring. We are days away from summer.” – Molly Sims [37:14]

Transcript

[A]

Okay, I have to tell you about two things that have genuinely changed my mornings. I've been using Ancient and Brave every single day and I genuinely look forward to it, which, if you know me, says a lot. They've been huge in the UK for years and just launched in the US and I'm so glad they did. The first is their True Creatine plus, which has been such a revelation. Women store far less creatine than men, so supplementing makes a real difference. And with added magnesium, vitamin D and taurine, it supports energy and brain function. I take it daily, no gym required. I stack it with your best selling true collagen. It's neutral in taste, dissolves into anything, coffee, smoothie, water. It supports skin elasticity and hydration from the inside out. It's made with clinically studied hydrolyzed collagen peptides. Ancient and Brave is also certified B core and a member of 1% for the planet. So every purchase supports real environmental causes. I love that so much. Go to ancientandbrave.com planet so that's ancientandbrave.com planet and use code LIPSTICK for $10 off any purchase. Go to ancientAndBrave.com planet and use the code LIPSTICK for $10 off any purchase. I promise you guys, you're gonna love it.

[A]

Hey, I'm Molly Sims.

[C]

And I'm Emisha Gormley.

[D]

We're two girls obsessed with one thing.

[E]

Beauty.

[A]

And by that, we mean everything that

[D]

makes you look and feel beautiful. We're calling on our favorite health health

[C]

experts, industry insiders and friends to answer

[A]

all your beauty questions with a drink in hand.

[D]

Definitely with a drink in hand.

[A]

You're listening to Lipstick on the Rim with Molly Sims. Oh, my gosh. We made it. We survived winter, dry skin, heavy layers, exhaustion. And now we are officially on the other side.

[C]

This has been the winter of all winters. And if you are like me, and it is a little lighter out and brighter out, and it feels a touch like spring, it's coming. We swap everything out. It is time.

[A]

Which means it's officially time for a spring must haves episode, which means we're walking you through our favorite beauty products. Everything just what we're reaching for non stop.

[C]

Our obsessions, which are sessions and they're new changes. And some are good old standbys.

[A]

Good old standbys. Summer Fridays. Flushed lip stain and shade rosette. Such a good color. It's soft. It's a cool pink. I just love it.

[C]

I. Oh, pretty. Okay. It's like a stain.

[A]

It's like a stain.

[C]

Oh, that's a pretty color.

[A]

It's so good. And the color is shade rosette.

[C]

I would layer your it girl on top of it. I know.

[A]

It's so good.

[C]

Oh, I love that.

[A]

You know what reminds me of Benetton, but in a pen and a pen. I absolutely love it. It's like the perfect pop of pink. I don't know. It's almost like a watercolor. I was like, look at that. It's on my hand. It's so good. It is $22.

[C]

All right, well, I am gonna start with an essence that I discovered recently, and it's called Anu, and it's a Manuka essence. So it's basically like a skin prep step. It helps to reset your skin. It has medical grade Manuka honey in it, which if you go down a rabbit hole. Manuka honey is actually used in hospitals for wound, like, burn victims. It's packed with naturally active hydrating ingredients that support your skin barrier. And if you are like me, after a really, really wretched winter, our barrier needs to be supported a little bit more. And this has really helped. It increases cellular turnover without irritating your skin. It helps brighten your complexion. Naturally acidic Manuka honey actually helps balance your skin's pH, which is what keeps your skin barrier Strong. And it's $110. The packaging is beautiful. It's amazing. It smells good. It feels good. Your skin just glows.

[A]

Linda Wells talked about it as well.

[C]

She loves the product too, so it's a winner.

[A]

You did a little bit of it under the plated, which is the exosome.

[C]

It's an exosome. It's a dermatologist recommended line. It's not cheap.

[A]

I might try it.

[C]

Give it a whirl.

[A]

Okay. Okay. Laneige Neo Blurring Powder, $25. I kept seeing this all over TikTok Instagram. So is it worth the hype? I had to buy it. I love it. It's a blurring powder, and I wrote down as three different powder. S is to absorb oil, help with your pores. I love the packaging. Look at the packaging.

[C]

Oh, it's beautiful.

[A]

So you just press. You don't even feel it. I mean, you really. This is like a powder. You do not feel. I'm just telling you. I do my T Zone.

[C]

Oh, that looks great. Because it doesn't. It mattes it down, but not in like a, like, look.

[A]

You can feel it.

[C]

Yeah, yeah.

[A]

And it takes a little powder puff on top. Okay. So it gives you a soft. It's a semi matte finish. It's not flat, it's not cake. Cakey. It's great for a little polished skin. K Beauty technology is at its best, which I was talking about. I absolutely love it. I keep it in my car and I have one at work when I'm working and I just get that T zone oil. You need some right now?

[C]

Do I need some right now?

[A]

Powder puff myself and it's 25, but yeah, it's a huge kind of viral product.

[C]

Oh, yeah, she's.

[D]

She's shiny.

[A]

She's shy.

[C]

She's shiny. She is a little powder puffing. Okay. All right, well, I'll stick to powder as well. In this next pick. It's the Gucci Sunkissed bronzer that a lot of you have seen probably all over Instagram. It's honestly what motivated me to try it. This is the color. The jury's out if it's going to be discontinued. This is like a big thing on Instagram right now. It is the. This specific shade is being questioned because it seems to not have been restocked. The shade is 01. It's got a little pinky undertone. So if you are fairer, like I am, it really warms your skin up without looking muddied. It just gives you such a naturally sun kissed, not orange, not muddy, just a really healthy and glowy sort of finish. And after again this winter, where I feel like all life and color had escaped me, this has kept me nice and toasted and looking like I had a quick weekend in Florida. $65. It comes in five shades. The pigments are designed to give a really warm, soft focus. Glow. It mattes me down, but it's talc free, so it doesn't give you that like icky, powdery look that just sits on top of your forehead or your skin. It's amazing and the hype is very real and I'm obsessed with it.

[A]

Okay, guys, I have been working on this Emma Shinano. She was one of my only testers early on. Extreme glow, dewy Peptide Plumping Serum. It's so good. It's $68. Think about skincare and makeup prep in one. It makes you glow, it makes you smooth, it makes you plump, it makes you hydrated.

[C]

All the words. I love to hear all the words.

[A]

I mean, look at the color. Like, look, you can do it over makeup, under makeup. I do it right after my skin glow. And yes, I have a full face of makeup on people, and I'm going to show you how. I mean, look at the glow it is on makeup. No makeup on bare skin. It just gives you. It's like a glass of water.

[C]

She has been taunting me with this in, like, the worst way because I was like, oh, your skin looks so good. What is it? She's like, it's my peptide glow.

[A]

I was like, it's my peptide glow. You guys, hand it over. We just got the clinicals back. It does 10 things in 15 minutes. It's incredible.

[C]

Can I steal this bottle?

[A]

That's yours now.

[C]

Not getting back.

[A]

Visibly plumpier. More bouncy.

[C]

I mean, your skin. Look at that.

[A]

And it's hydrated and it's not.

[C]

Putting some on now.

[A]

Hold on.

[C]

I need to put.

[A]

And as we age, we have to really help our barrier make our therier big. So as much as you're, you know. And over time, this has great brightening benefits. So you're going to be smoother, you're going to be brighter, but most important, you're going to be plumpier.

[C]

Oh, I love plumpier. That's like the word.

[A]

That's going to be the worst launch last week, you guys. It's so good, I can't even tell you.

[C]

Also, I'm just going to give a really quick shout out. Your packaging is so beautiful.

[D]

Thank you.

[C]

It really does, like, deliver on a very luxe, expensive feeling product. But you're not actually, like, ripping people off. You're. You're making beautiful, luxurious skincare, actually attainable and affordable. Yeah.

[A]

And it works.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

You guys are going to love it. Extreme Glow Dewy Peptide Plumping Serum.

[C]

That's going to be a bestseller.

[A]

Well, I'm telling you, I was in New York with the editors. We were launching shade extensions on Wide Awake Brightening Eye Cream. I didn't have the real one. I had it in. You could still see the pink, but it had, like, a white cap. And I was a little bit embarrassed, and I'm like, hi. You know, I'm coming out with this, and all the editors were there. I'm coming out with this Peptide Glow Serum. For, like, you know, it's my kind of. In your 40s and your 50s, you want to glow as well. So why can't we have a peptide plumbing? Everybody else does. But, yeah, they were obsessed on it because they had to. Your point? They've been in cold weather, the morning heaters, and so they would come in makeup, no makeup. Put it on, pop it on. Honestly, it's like a glass of water and vitamins to your face.

[C]

It's so good. All right, well, you could apply this on top of your peptide. This is the Mary Phillips LE Skin Weightless Serum Foundation. And, you know, my love for a glowy foundation. All my dreams came true with this. It is foundation, but it also feels like skin care. I will say that, you know, I do love the Victoria Beckham Foundation Drop still. But they're so cost prohibitive. They're $110. This is 49. And gives a similar finish. It does, you know, melt right into your skin. The finish is really fresh and natural.

[A]

It feels like a little bit of a.

[C]

It's really pretty. It's like a really beautiful, beautiful finish. It has niacinamide in it. It helps even out your skin tone and smooth texture over time. And it's hyaluronic acid in it. So your skin. It's what makes your skin look so.

[A]

It's a good skin tint.

[C]

It's a good skin tint. It's a little bit more than a skin tint, but not as heavy as a true foundation.

[A]

Giorgio Armani a run for.

[C]

I think it really is. I. I really, really love it.

[A]

What color is this?

[C]

That' 120. Yeah. I really, really love it. I think that she's done a really beautiful job with a lot of her products, and this foundation is definitely a winner. Okay.

[F]

I fall asleep so fast at night, wrapped up in my bowl and branch sheets.

[G]

They're buttery, smooth. They're so soft.

[F]

They're magical.

[G]

100% organic, cotton, breathable, luxurious. I now have multiple different duvet covers.

[C]

Oh.

[G]

To go with my different feelings in different seasons.

[E]

I'm going to tell you a quick story. We got the honor of having Patty Dubroff on lipstick on the rim. She is a renowned makeup artist I've known over 25 years. We went into like a deep dive into her basically like beauty toolkit.

[D]

She does Margot Robbie.

[E]

She does so many people. She's incredible at what she does. And she was talking about this brand called Upneek. Okay, Upneek, U, P, N, E, E, Q. Okay, you gotta talk to your doctor. But the secret to like that open eye, it's called Upneek. It's a single drop. You know, sometimes your eyelids can look a little low. I actually went to the doctor and he said you would be the perfect candidate for this. It's an FDA approved prescription eye drop for adults really with low lying eyelids. But it's also a secret trick because it really opens up the eye. So for me, I was like, you know what?

[A]

I'm going to try this.

[E]

So I did it a couple of days before the Oscars because I was like, very worried. And it was amazing. My eyes felt more open.

[A]

They looked more open.

[E]

And so we decided to do it on the day of the Oscars. I wore a beautiful butter yellow Monique Lillier dress wise helped do my skin care and I used Upnique. So you're going to see these amazing before and afters when we were getting ready. And I have to say, they made such a world of difference. One drop per eye. In the morning, my eyes looked more open.

[A]

They looked more awake in minutes.

[E]

And it's one simple step, guys. And it lasts for eight hours anyway.

[A]

I'm a big believer.

[E]

Go talk to your doctor. Check it out. I think you guys are gonna love apnea.

[A]

This next product was actually introduced by Patti Dubroff is an incredible makeup artist to Margot Robbie and so many other ones. And she, you know, she has her toolkit and we Asked her, you know, what's that secret? And she gave us a secret. It's called Upneek. It is an FDA derm approved prescription eye drop. It lists in about five minutes. It lasts almost eight hours. Your eyes actually look more open and bigger.

[C]

Yeah, it's like an upper bleph in an eye drop.

[A]

So it's called Upneek. 2 for 15, 10 for 75, 30 for 150. It's honestly, it's a non surgical bleph.

[C]

Yeah, literally.

[A]

Literally. So if there's a special event or you just, you want to do it every single day, it's amazing. I literally just went to my eye doctor, Dr. Richland, and he said these are great.

[C]

I mean we're going to try them.

[A]

I'm obsessed.

[C]

Well, I'm going to stick with my skin kick because again, coming out of a dull and cold winter, I'm all about just making my skin look glowy. Molly and I have both been huge fans of this product for a very, very long time. It's the Natura Bisset Diamond Cocoon sheer cream. And it's basically like a really good day cream that just happens to have a tint to it. It's a one and done product. It hydrates, it evens your skin tone. It gives you a really natural glow all in one step. It also just adapts to your skin tone. It's amazing for everyday wear if you're not the kind of person that wants to wear a foundation. So if you just want to have a low maintenance face cream that like, it's not quite like a makeup, it really reads more skincare to me than makeup, but it just happens to blur any imperfections. It's such a great product. It is expensive. It's $268 for a jar of it. But I've had my jar last me two years and it honestly like, there's still more in there. It is a product that like actually works in your. You just, people compliment your skin whenever I put it on. Like if I have an early morning lacrosse game, honestly, it's what I put on. Like if I have to be at the door at 7:30 in the morning, I just put that on and some Wide Awake under my eyes and I'm good to go. And it looks like I have flawless skin and it's glowing. It's just, it's, it's a miracle product. I love it. It's a one and done.

[A]

One and done. Okay. A lot of women says do, do I use a concealer every now and Then I do use a concealer. Today I have a concealer on with my Wide Awake over kind of what you were saying. If you just want like a. A great moisturizer tinted foundation, then just a little bit of an eye. But if you do need a little bit more. It's called the Prada Blurring Micro Correcting concealer in shade LW3. It's $48. It's a new concealer. Yes, it'. Yes. It lives up to the height because it's sheer, but it covers. I love it. I love the color. You can see.

[C]

Oh, you can tell. It's got a nice consistency.

[A]

It's got a nice consistency. It's not drying.

[C]

Oh, let me see.

[A]

It's not drying. It's got the blurring, which I love. I layer on top of my Wide Awake over it just for extra skincare benefits. The applicator is amazing.

[C]

Oh, that's really nice.

[A]

I wear shade LW3, which is a little warmer undertone. There are 21 shades total. So I recommend, you know, trying to find your skin color, but it's also suitable for, you know, sensitive skin. I don't want a concealer to ever be cakey, even when I'm trying to cover.

[C]

I know, right? Especially as we get older. It can settle into your fine lines.

[A]

It settles. It settles into fine lines and wrinkles. And yes, if you have kind of like the Wide Awake, you can put on top of it, but your concealer needs to cover, but it still has to have that really sheer, sheer flexibility. Consistency, flexibility. And you gotta be able to, like, see through it a little.

[D]

It's so funny.

[C]

I think concealer is definitely a very personal decision. But like, I went out, I kept seeing the Natasha Denona concealer, everybody raving about it. It's the best concealer. I actually threw it in the garbage. It was so bad on my skin. Like, it was. It looked like I had, like.

[A]

That's what I'm trying to tell you. There's no flexibility.

[C]

There's no.

[A]

It was just. And then the line that it can. When it's dry.

[C]

Awful.

[A]

Awful.

[C]

Okay, well, I'm going to have to try this out because. Okay. I'm going to pivot to fragrance really quickly because, you know, I love a fragrance.

[A]

Loves a fragrance.

[C]

We're ready for the warm weather. We're ready to envision ourselves in Italy, you know, lounging in Capri. This is the Bottega Veneta Culpo de Sol. It literally smells like warm Mediterranean sunshine in a bottle. It's Fresh and bright. It's got bergamot and angelica, and then it kind of settles into this gorgeous orange blossom warmth. That feels clean. There's a little musk. There's a little bit of vanilla. It's such a pretty everyday scent.

[A]

It is an everyday scent. It smells like summer.

[C]

It smells like summer, but it's not heavy. No. And it just. By the way, the packaging is beautiful.

[A]

I mean, look at the packaging. It's super heavy. It's gold. And every shade has a different color. Different color, which we love.

[C]

It's just. It's. It's so beautiful. It really is. That is so good. Isn't that good?

[A]

Bobbi Brown? It's an oldie but a goodie. They launched some new blushes. This one, I love the color. It's called cheeky pink. So this is on a stick. It's a blush stick. Cheeky pink. It's $35. It just. It's really good. It's got a little bit of that hybrid.

[C]

I like cream blush.

[A]

It's very sheer.

[C]

I like cream blush, but I love buildable.

[A]

It can't have too much color. But this is sheer pink. And you can see kind of like the glassiness a little bit, which I love. Kind of gives a. It gives us life in a way.

[C]

I think the other one that I like that's glassy like that is the Haus Labs.

[A]

Oh, girl. The cloud one.

[C]

It's so good. I'll. I'll follow up. I'll. I'll move ahead to a pocket blush as well. Because you and I just love a blush.

[A]

We love a blush. We are.

[C]

We. There's never.

[A]

Is that the road one?

[C]

This is the rose.

[A]

They're so good.

[C]

And this is the color tan line. It's constantly sold out. It's kind of. It looks like that pink, but married with the summer tan.

[A]

Yes. And it's a little bit of. It's outlast from Ilia.

[C]

It is a really good blush and I love putting it kind of just on the tops of my cheekbones. It just. Right here, right here. Carry it over the bridge of your nose.

[A]

Over the bridge of your nose.

[C]

The texture is really good. It's lightweight. It gives a soft, satiny glow. It blends so easily. It's clean and it's $25. And it really. I feel like Rhode is like what all the cool kids are using, but I'm going to be the cool 47 year old with it.

[A]

Okay. We really loved having Patti Dubroff on, so she spoke about suede Lash Lift mascara dark brown, $30. I'm sorry. It's amazing.

[C]

It really is.

[A]

Look at this. It is amazing. And I have it in brown. I have it in black. This is the dark brown. It doesn't flake. It goes on thin. It separates. You have to have this in your toolkit.

[C]

I think that brand is amazing. I have a glass skin tint from them. That's really pretty.

[A]

Love.

[C]

Yeah. Okay.

[A]

$30.

[C]

All right, so I'm gonna go back. I feel like you've talked about these before and I'm late to the party, but this is the Armani beauty tint, long lasting. The shade is cashew.

[A]

Oh, the shade is the best shade ever.

[C]

It is like, I am not. I've never.

[A]

Is that a cheek lip, eye?

[C]

No, this is just eye.

[A]

Okay.

[C]

It is. I'm not an eyeshadow person, but I have changed my ways with this because

[A]

it dries down a little. It's got a little bit of semi matte. Exactly.

[C]

Semi matte. It just makes me look a little more polished. Can't explain it. I don't feel like I'm wearing, like, a heavy eye, but it just makes my eyes brighter and pop. It stays put. There's no creasing. There's no smudging. It doesn't feel sticky. And I love. This is the shade cashew. There's no shimmer to it. There's no anything. It just is a beautiful kind of matte, light brown color for your lids.

[D]

It's beautiful.

[C]

$39.

[A]

$39. Okay. Henry Rose. This is my travel spray. It's 1983. It's based on time. If you don't know Henry Rose, Michelle Pfeiffer, the one and only, who we had on the podcast, you have to listen to that episode.

[C]

Her voice is.

[A]

I mean, she's incredible.

[C]

She's soothing.

[A]

She launched a fragrance company called Henry Rose. This is a London 1983. It's got a little pepper in it. It's got a little bit of opens with fig, but not sweeter. Jamie. It's slightly green, like I said, a little spicy with black pepper and.

[C]

Oh, that's really pretty.

[A]

It's so good. It's like a soft floral. And I'm very into a travel spray.

[C]

I love a travel spray.

[A]

I love a travel spray.

[C]

Yeah. Oh, that's beautiful.

[A]

It's $35, so you can just put it in your bag.

[C]

What are the notes in it?

[A]

Black pepper, soft florals. It dries down into a beautiful velvety musk.

[C]

You know, I love a Musk.

[A]

I know you love a musk.

[C]

Oh, I need this.

[A]

I'm out. London, 1983. It's about her time in London on the Kings Road.

[C]

Oh, my Lord.

[A]

Can you imagine Michelle Pfeiffer on God,

[C]

can you imagine her in 1983 if she was at her prime?

[A]

She's not mean. She's still at her prime.

[C]

Hottie matatas.

[A]

She's amaz. $35.

[C]

Okay. This. I was so excited. I got to try this product before it launched. And it's the say City Set Lightweight setting spray. It's one of the first really, truly clean, alcohol free setting sprays. So sometimes when you would put a setting spray on, it would feel almost like hairspray on your face. This is unbelievable.

[A]

Like they launched it like NYC spray or something like it's called.

[C]

And it really does.

[A]

That's a huge bottle, though.

[C]

It's a huge bottle. They do have a smaller one. They have a small one that you can just throw in your. In your purse. It is. It kind of gives your face like a fresh, dewy look without being completely greasy. It holds everything in place for 16 hours. It will set your makeup for 16 hours. It's clean, alcohol free. It really, really just kind of moves with your makeup. It's 34. It. It's, I think, a game changer in setting sprays. I'm obsessed with it. Oh, we need that every day.

[A]

I mean, we need it right now. Flyaways Fly. I love. Everybody's doing a wand.

[C]

I love a wand.

[A]

Chris McMillan has a wand. Vay has a wand. So this is called Ceremonia Pique. Fly away Pique. P, E, Q U. I Fly away Hairstyling gel and mascara wand. It's $18. It just smooths it down. It doesn't. It's not oily. It's not sticky. It's so amazing. I can't even tell you. And I love it.

[C]

Yeah, it was so fun. I feel like all of these wands first started because all these young girls were into slick backs.

[A]

Oh, I know. So it's the Ceremonia Piqui Flyaway Hairstyling gel with a mascara wand. It's $18. It's got a little wand. It's got it. So you can go. I'm telling you, it's so good.

[C]

Yeah. The one that I use just. I just felt my ends and it feels stiff and crunchy.

[A]

It can't be sticky.

[C]

No, can't have sticky.

[A]

Sticky, everybody. No crunchy hair, everybody. Like you said, it's like the Hailey Bieber whenever you decided to wear their hair. And the smooth back and the slick back. I love it. And then you have another little wand. You can also do your brows. I love it. It's very small, which I love.

[C]

I'm just laughing at. I have to. This is an anecdote, but Lily was like copying Grace with her slick backs. And so I would every morning put

[D]

her hair in a ponytail.

[C]

I was in. Yeah. But then what she would do is she would go to the bathroom by herself and this is a six year old child. Okay. Put water. She would take a spray bottle of water and then like a day stick and she would l literally like, like slick the front down. But then when she would walk out of the house in the morning, I didn't have the heart to say anything because I also didn't have the time. I'm like, you gotta get out the door. We're late. And it's like everything that she slicked, like, looked like a tattered mess, like right by her actual hair elastic.

[A]

She just kept rushing it back and it was like. Like a nest. It was like a nest.

[C]

Exactly. It was a nest around her hair elastic. I was like, oh, God.

[D]

This is.

[C]

Is not adorable. This is not cute.

[D]

Okay, so you guys know I've talked about One Skin before for their skincare and I am completely obsessed with the brand. But they just launched something new that I genuinely think is going to be a game changer, especially for those of us who've been noticing that our hair just isn't quite what it used to be. It's called Oso one Hair, a scalp serum that brings One Skin same longevity science to hair loss. And look, I've been paying more attention to this lately because my hair just feels thinner than it used to. And I know so many of you are in the same boat. Spring actually makes it worse. Seasonal shedding is actually a real thing. And stress does not help us either. What I love about this serum is the science behind it. It's powered by OneSkin's patented OS01 peptide, which targets the cells in your hair follicles that are causing the shedding, thinning and slower growth.

[C]

Growth.

[D]

They've done real clinical studies on this, and six months in, people saw a 43% increase in hair thickness and a 40% increase in hair density plus an overall reduction in shedding. Those numbers are real and it's completely drug free, which matters to me. Effective results without harsh side effects. I mean, honestly, sign me up. Born from over 10 years of longevity research, One Skin's OS01 peptide is proven to target the cells that cause the visible signs of aging. So your scalp and your hair, they stay healthy now and as you age. For a limited time, try one skin with 15% off using code LOTR at OneSkin Co LOTR. That's 15% off OneSkin Co with code LOTR.

[C]

I love the vanilla one.

[D]

[A]

Oh, you like the vanilla? I love the Santel. It is the single best hand cream. It's super chic. It's.

The other product I love from her is the in shower oil.

[A]

Smell that. That just like.

[C]

I don't want to ruin the smell of the Henry rose. I mean, really. The Henry rose is everything.

[A]

The Henry rose is everything. This is too. It's $22.

[C]

Her products are amazing. But the in shower oil, if you're like me and you don't love to always have to, like, put moisturizer on, it's a really, really, really good product.

[A]

Cycler. Sacred Sandtel hand cream. I love Cycler.

[C]

This is bergamot.

[A]

It's bergamot. It's so good. I can't even tell you. It's $22.

[H]

I don't know.

[A]

I just kind of like. I love smell it. It's uplifting. You just.

[C]

Do you know what this reminds me of? Can I tell you this? I'm actually completely all kidding aside, this reminds me of your house in West Hollywood. Something about when you would open the windows in the morning.

[A]

Oh, yeah.

[C]

And that bergamot is what is reminding me of this.

[A]

Maybe that's what I love.

[C]

It's so. That just brought me back.

[A]

I love it so much. It's sacred. Santel is my favorite. It's 22. It's a luxury hand cream. And it's so good. I want to get that shower oil.

[C]

Yeah, you need to try it. It's really good.

[A]

I want to get that shower oil.

[C]

Okay. You know, I love a tan, and you know I love a tanning product. And this. I am definitely late to the party on this one. I feel like people have been talking about salty face for a while. I just discovered it.

[A]

It's out of Australia.

[C]

It's. It's amazing. This is a tanning water. I used the light to medium you mist. So you do your skincare at night, and then you let that skincare kind of soak in, and then you just take this and you mist your face with it and then it comes with this like little buffing brush and you just blend it into your face. You wake up in the morning with just the right amount. You don't look orange. You don't.

[A]

It's a little bit of a glow.

[C]

It's just again, these are the things that got me through a very long, dark, depressing, cold, miserable winter. And this product especially like I noticed such a difference in how I looked all day when I used it versus when I didn't. It's $42. It really does give your face such a natural sun kissed glow. You can build it gradually. It does not transfer on your pillowcases. I don't know how. I sleep on white pillowcases. I use it at night. I don't have any stains on my pillowcase in the morning. I don't understand it it but I'm going to take it and it's $42.

[D]

It's $42.

[A]

And it lasts.

[C]

It lasts.

[A]

I love the pea. I love the, the mist. I her. It doesn't leave. You warned.

[C]

It's so good.

[A]

It's so good. I'm like should we do more?

[C]

Oh, I still have more.

[A]

Oh, you still have more.

[H]

I have one more.

[C]

I think cuz you we. You know what? Yeah, I have one more. Okay. So this was a discovery for me. It's definitely. She's not cheap. She's $99. This is called the agent Natur Body balm. What I love about this is I love the way an oil feels on my legs because it's really what deeply hydrates my skin and I get, especially

[A]

now in the winter.

[C]

It is the change in climate, the temperature, the dryness, all of it. But I'm not always good at getting out of the shower and immediately like throwing an oil on. What I love about this is you can have completely dead dry skin and put this on and it's like an oil but it actually is absorbed and it keeps your skin when I tell you for your body, for your body, it keeps your skin looking hydrated because my skin typically will absorb everything and then I look dry an hour later. This keeps your skin looking so hydrated and it gives it that like youthful glow. You just put it on and I'm telling you you will see within four or five hours it still looks the same as when you applied it. It deeply, deeply hydrates your skin. It gives you that glowy finish that we like. It's also lifting and firming. It's just insanely Hydrating. It's packed with good plant oils, antioxidants, and it's not sticky. You can get dressed. It's 99, so it's not cheap.

[A]

I take her hair powder. I put in my smoothie all the time.

[C]

Yeah, she's got great collagen powders.

[A]

It's like a blue bag. I get it at Whole Foods. I love, love this company.

[C]

Yeah, it's a great, great brand. That body balm is. If you suffer from dry skin and you need to heal it, it heals it.

[A]

I love it.

[C]

Is that really it?

[A]

That's really it. We were very good today.

[C]

We are tight.

[A]

We're tight. We're trying to be tight.

[C]

Yeah, we're tight.

[A]

Guys, I'm ready. I'm ready for spring.

[C]

We are.

[A]

We're days away from summer. We are days.

[C]

We just got back from Cabo, guys.

[A]

I mean, we had such a good time in Cabo.

[C]

Great Spring, summer.

[A]

What's crazy is we hadn't been to Cabo together in. In six years.

[C]

Maeve, before we went, just kept saying, I think I remember this. I remember going to get the best smoothies ever. And I was like, yes. Because we'd wake up Uncle Stuber and ask him if we could get in the golf cart. I go, don't wake him up this time. Let him sleep.

[A]

I know we had such a good time. It was. Oh, my God. Thank God we had good weather.

[C]

Give it to me. Can I just move there?

[A]

I just hate daylight savings time. I hate it.

[C]

I really think that should be a top priority for any administration to abolish because it's. We're not. We're not farmers anymore. The whole thing about daylight savings was all for farmers.

[A]

No, I know. I'm just. It's depressive. Especially here when you, you know, your kids are out of school, they can't go anywhere. I mean, the same for you. It's cold. It's even. It's darker an hour early.

[C]

It's depressing.

[A]

Anyway, we're almost to summer.

[C]

I always say this, this, but these are really always my favorite episodes. I do love other people. I love our guests, but these are the ones that, like, we actually get to just Chitty Chatty Kathy with each other. I love a little.
