Hello and welcome to almost 30 podcasts. Hi everybody, it's Lindsay and Krista. So glad

0:13.0

you are here. If you're watching on YouTube, what's up?

0:16.6

I look beautiful today. Look amazing and radiant. Oh, man. I'm in that. What's it? You're in that

0:28.4

hospital. Yes. Yeah, the hospital lighting, baby. It's just doing wonders for my skin. And I've

0:35.8

got the puff going on. I got a facial with Collette, who is this like facialist from Vancouver.

0:41.5

She was in Malibu a few weeks ago. The whole time was like my obsession was like the face puff,

0:46.7

the puffiness of the face. And this is like just hopping into it. But I was watching this video

0:51.8

and talking to her basically, facial puffiness and face structure is a lot based on blood sugar.

0:57.3

And salt. So there's like something that happens if you have too much blood or too much sugar,

1:05.1

it, I don't know what it is, if it holds onto water, basically carbs convert to sugar, which then

1:11.2

1:38.8

everybody's a little bit different. Yes, of course. But that's so so interesting. What did she

1:44.8

recommend? She recommended what? Like just tons of water to flush or what? Well, she's so funny

1:49.8

because her recommendation is like, you need to like speak your truth. I know. You need to say

1:55.6

what you want. Like that's the only recommendation she gives me is like, you're holding back saying

1:59.3

what you want. And so she's, you know, and she says that too. Like with if you have, yeah, like if

2:06.6

you hold weight around your jaw or your face, so she's like, speak your truth, say what's on your

2:10.4

mind, everything will flow much better. But also, Gwasha is helpful. And then getting in having
