Picture this. You’re on a date or sitting in a job interview. Four minutes in, you know — this isn’t it. Do you cut your losses and walk, or sit there smiling politely for the next painful hour? Same with a conversation that's making you quietly die inside or reading a book that came highly recommended —do you carry on or quit? That, in essence, is the Lemon Law — and today, we’re breaking it down. Also on the docket: tween beauty. Why are 12-year-olds taking over Sephora, and is their influence driving up prices across the industry? And if that is the case, could they please stop? Like, now? Amelia, Jessie, and Mia unpack the tween takeover and what it means for the future of our beauty treats. And finally, our weekly recommendations: a book Amelia didn’t Lemon Law, an unhinged sheep story (from Mia, naturally), and the documentary Jessie couldn't stop watching. Support independent women's media Recommendations Amelia recommends Atmosphere by Taylor Jenkins Reid. Jessie recommends aka Charlie Sheen on Netflix. Mia recommends Kevin the Sheep on Instagram AND these gold hoops from the chemist.
