To kick off the episode, we share some recent conversations we’ve had with some amazing women. We appeared on Clean Beauty Insiders podcast, based in the UK where we chat about entrepreneurship and our favourite behind-the-scenes moments with founders. Plus, we got local love from fellow Torontonian podcaster Siffat Haider on the Dream Bigger Podcast - where we dish *tons* of product faves.
Speaking of shopping, Carlene couldn’t leave
Japan without a beauty haul so in today’s episode, we have your
ultimate guide to J-Beauty shopping, aka Japanese Beauty!! What is
J-Beauty, you ask? While K-Beauty trends may get all of the sexy
headlines, the truth is that beauty insiders have long known that
the most high-quality, smartly designed and effective products are
born and bred in Japan (think backstage at fashion week with
artists putting Shu Uemura lash curlers on the map). So what
really sets J-Beauty products apart? Carlene links up with her new
beauty pal and Tokyo native Shiho
Kobayashi to find out
just that, and Shiho takes her on a field trip to Don
Quijote where Carlene
fills her cart with weird and wonderful essentials.

of the episode to hear Jill and Carlene reviews - is it a J-Beauty
must or J-Beauty bust?
