This podcast discusses the historical relevance of some of our most coveted beauty secrets and rituals today - how ancient are the ingredients used in beauty routines from around the world and why do we still use them today? What did our great grandmothers see when they looked in the mirror and what were they thinking as they applied their lipstick and their various beauty powders? We will also explore the metaphysical side of beauty and how the mundane beauty rituals we do today actually connect us to all of our ancestors before us. We will do some readings, tell ghost stories, and get weird. This is NOT your average beauty podcast.
