The September Issue: B'day Edition

This episode drops on Beyonce's 37th birthday so it's only appropriate we discuss her Vogue September 2018 cover article and what a great example she's setting. We're also discussing that viral Brooklyn nail salon video - yes, THAT ONE - and what it made me think about supporting black-owned beauty businesses. But first I'm catching you up on my summer, including my quick thoughts on why you need to see the birthday girl on her On the Run II tour and my recap of TWO independent beauty expos. ***Please excuse the sound issues.
