0:28.5	Hello and welcome back to Breaking Beauty podcast. I'm Carleen Higgins and I'm here with my favorite co-host Jill Dunn. Hello, Jill.
0:38.4	Hey, Carlene. And of course, we just saw each other in New York last week. We were girls about town. And we had so many great conversations with people. I cannot wait for everyone to hear those episodes. And of course, our longtime listeners will know that we are two beauty editors
0:44.1	turned beauty podcasters here each and every Wednesday with the breakthrough people
