In this episode, we are excited to have the hosts of the Long Story Short Podcast, Skye & Amanda chat join us to discuss their personal journeys with beauty. On the Long Story Short Podcast, Skye & Amanda discuss the books they read and how they apply the lessons to their lives. In this episode, they touch on various factors that shaped their idea of beauty such as their cultural identities as Black and Afro-Latina women, growing up in New York and how they see beauty depicted in novels and the parallels that exist to real life. We also discuss the audacity men have in expressing their "preferences", current wellness practices and skin routines.
