What Do Car Paint, Insulation and Your Highlighter Have in Common? With Beauty Reporter Lexy Lebsack
b'
What\'s considered scary in the world of beauty? Counterfeit makeup, how mica is sourced, and an unpredictable chemical that you won\'t find on an INCI list. Today\'s episode covers all these topics with guest Lexy Lebsack. Lexy is a correspondent, producer, writer, and editor. She reports on-camera across culture, business, travel, and beauty topics, but is best known for her Webby award-winning docuseries, SHADY, which examines the culture, commerce, and controversy behind the multibillion-dollar beauty and wellness industries and the people it impacts around the world. Her investigations on child labor tied to mica sourcing in rural India by American companies, the dangers of skin bleaching products made in Asia, and the millions of dollars of counterfeit makeup being sold in American cities has been extensively covered and syndicated.
We are thrilled to have her on the podcast today to discuss the SPOOKY side of beauty (in honor of it being October, obviously).
