Summary
Today we have Elle.com's Beauty Director Chloe Hall as our special guest host! Chloe joins Kirbie to discuss what it was like working with Tracee Ellis Ross on Elle's State of Black Beauty package, interviewing Cardi B., and writing her most recent story about Jessica Florence — a woman who had stage 3 breast cancer but experienced medical racism. We also discuss big news coming out of California: the "Toxic-Free Cosmetics Act" was passed. What does it mean, exactly? And could CheckCosmetics.net be the key to purchasing products from third party retailers like TJ Maxx, Ross and Nordstrom Rack? Plus, Chloe is currently obsessing over a new brand's scalp spray and Kirbie has a rec for a must-have $14 moisturizer for maskne.
