Introducing Folklore & Skincare: Where History Meets Beauty
Hey everyone! I'm thrilled to finally share something that Mindy & I have been working on for a while now: our brand new podcast, Folklore & Skincare! This project is a true passion project for us, combining our fascination with history and folklore with our love for all things skincare. I'm so excited to bring you along on this journey as we explore the captivating intersection of these two seemingly disparate worlds.
Have you ever stopped to think about the stories behind the ingredients in your favorite skincare products? Or the bizarre and sometimes dangerous beauty rituals of the past? Folklore & Skincare delves into these questions and more, uncovering the rich history and fascinating folklore surrounding beauty practices throughout the ages.
Each week, Mindy or I will share a new episode exploring a different theme – from the legends of powerful women and their beauty secrets, to the surprising origins of common skincare ingredients, and the sometimes shocking history of beauty trends. We'll be uncovering ancient myths, exploring historical texts, and even diving into the science behind some of these practices.
Think of it as a journey down the rabbit hole of beauty history. We'll be encountering lethal beauty routines, innovative (and often risky!) skincare innovations, and the rebellious women who dared to challenge the beauty standards of their time. It's a blend of history, folklore, and a dash of the mystical, all wrapped up in a fun and engaging format.
What you can expect from Folklore & Skincare
