That Beauty Podcast

Rhode has landed in Australia — but is Hailey Bieber’s skincare brand actually worth the major hype?
In this week’s ep, we kick off the new season by putting Rhode under the microscope. We unpack how the brand blew up, why the internet is obsessed, and which products have gone viral for all the right or wrong reasons. From the hero formulas to the finishes everyone’s chasing, we share our honest opinions, what experts think of it, personal trial experiences and whether any of it truly earns a spot in your routine.
Also in this ep – the beauty news making waves right now plus our Most Valuable Products of the Week.

Holiday party season is here! Which means sparkles, bold colour, extra effort eyes and glowy skin… and, if you live in Australia, makeup that’s fighting for its life. Between the heat, the humidity, the sweat, the dancing and the running around from one event to the next, keeping your makeup in place can feel… basically impossible.
So today we’re getting into all things holiday season glam with makeup artist Mia Hawkswell - from how to create a party look that actually feels fun and wearable no matter if you want to go lowkey or all out, and how to make sure it lasts the distance — even in 35-degree heat.
Also in this ep, we put our faces on the line to test Go-To’s blushes, and an easy hack for figuring out your blush placement, and of course, our MVPs for the week (and last ones for the year)

Skincare routines can feel like a lot — whether you’re someone who loves a 10-step lineup or you’re more of a cleanse-and-go minimalist. But how do you know which approach your skin actually needs? And is there really such a thing as doing too much… or too little?
In this week’s ep, we’re joined by formulator and skincare founder Leighton Smith to help us unpack the rise of skin minimalism vs. maximalism, the ingredients every routine should include (no matter your camp), and how to build a skincare ritual that supports your skin.
Also in this ep, Carli shares the highlights from Priceline’s Beauty Prescription Live, and of course, our Most Valuable Products of the Week.

So often the colours we choose for our makeup — and even our hair — are dictated by trends or just personal preference. But how do we actually know if those shades suit us? And how transformational could it be to choose colours that genuinely work with our natural colouring?
In this week’s ep, we’re joined by colour analyst Rachel Bilu, founder of Colour Lab Stylist, to help us figure out how our season might be the reason why our makeup isn’t working and how to pick the most flatter shades.
Also in this ep - Carli’s first BIAB experience, Bettina’s fight to get her hands on Taylor Swift’s sold-out hair routine and our Most Valuable Products of the Week.
