Confidence or Illusion? Examining the Future of Beauty Culture with Smart Mirrors

from She's in the Weeds - Pop Culture and The Female Experience · host Sam and Hollis - Millennial Women with a Passion for Pop Culture

Send us Fan MailWe're sharing our thoughts on the future of beauty culture with the newest innovation hitting the market. The smart mirror. We're wondering is this real confidence or is this marketing that preys on the insecurities of women? Is this individualized beauty tailored to your face or is AI generating the same face for all of us? Is this creating more joy and satisfaction for women or is it keeping us distracted and focused on one thing? We've got some thoughts and we're sure you do too! But first, we're yapping about hump day, shopping, trampolines, and Cinco de Mayo. Then we've got to discuss the latest summer house drama, the met gala, and Hollis's important message to the billionaires. Next, we're getting in the weeds over this new Swan Beauty Mirror. Quite frankly, we don't like it. Not one bit. However, there's a lot to unpack here and as always the nuances are nuancing and we'd love to hear what you think. Then we're circling back to the top of the episode to chat about Dark Side Danny (not too brag but we clocked this guy months ago) and Luke's recent comments that had our jaws on the floor. As always we wrap it up with gripes about trigger warnings and butter behavior and grapes to 90s nostalgia.
