Michelle Wong - LabMuffin Beauty Science, Beauty Blogger and Scientist

from Beauty Island · host Brittany Stewart

A foundation actually saved Michelle's life once. No, that's not an exaggeration. The beauty blogger, better known as LabMuffin Beauty Science has a PhD in chemistry, which she uses to give a unique, entertaining and informative reviews and articles on your favourite beauty products. With over 60,000 followers on Instagram alone (and a blog, series of e-books and a YouTube channel to boot) she's the one you go-to for scientific-based evidence and explanations of bold beauty claims, myths and confusing and complex ingredients. We talked about the beauty myth that is absolute BS, the claim brands make that makes her blood boil, how a MAC foundation literally saved her life (it's a brilliant story!), diversity in the beauty industry (or lack thereof), her struggles to achieve unicorn pastel hair until the invention of olaplaex, the most exciting innovations we're seeing in the beauty space, the difference between chemical and physical sunscreens, whether natural products are actually better for you, how Donald Trump is boosting the self-care skincare industry (yes, really!) and how pole classes have helped her love her body. You'll definitely learn something new from this episode - I know I did!
