How many times a day should we wash and cleanse our faces? And is it a good idea to get injections the week before your wedding? (The answer to the latter is a resounding no.) To answer these questions, Chioma sat down with Jessica Diner this week, VogueGlobal Director of Beauty and Wellbeing and Hannah Coates, UK Director VogueDigital Beauty Editor of.
The trio immersed themselves in British culture VogueThe May issue of , which begins with an in-depth discussion of Lena Dunham’s article on nail trends, and the pros and cons of long nails (pro: you look put together; con: you can’t wear your contacts). They then tackle the tricky topic of “Perception drift”, or the constant state of dissatisfaction that can result from too many cosmetic procedures. It used to be taboo to talk about injections, but now that times have changed, Jessica encourages people considering these types of procedures to find a doctor they trust.
Later, wellness expert Hannah shared her latest findings on beans (yes, beans!) as a superfood, as well as the slightly confusing obsession with colostruma nutrient-rich milk used in Sofia Richie Grainge’s viral Erewhon smoothie. Then they all discussed the eternal question of how and when to wash and cleanse your face, as well as the fascination Teens and tweens seem to have problems with skin careAs with most things in life, there’s no one-size-fits-all approach, but Hannah and Jessica both like to gently wash their faces with a washcloth. (Americans mean washcloth.)
Also in this episode, Chloe and Chioma talk about the big week Brooklyn has had in fashion, since the Dior Pre-Fall Collection exhibited at the Brooklyn Museum at the WNBA Project at BAM. They marveled at looks from Angel Reese (who wore Bronx and Banco) and Caitlin Clark (Prada) before turning their attention to last weekend’s historic festivities at Coachella, when Doja Cat became the first female rapper to headline, and Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were among the festival-goers. Taylor seems to be letting loose and shaking it up before her album, The Department of Tortured Poetsis out tomorrow. Swifties, get ready!
