0:00.0	The following podcast is a Dear Media production.
0:08.2	Welcome to Breaking Beauty, the podcast, all about the breakthrough people, products, and moments in beauty.
0:14.1	We're your host, Jill Dunn and Carleen Higgins.
0:28.7	Welcome back to Breaking Beauty podcast, everyone. It's Wednesday. So it's Carleen and Jill here in your feeds. Once again, hello, Jill. Hey, Carlene. And longtime listeners know us as two magazine beauty editors turn to beauty podcasters who chat each and every week about the breakthrough
0:38.1	people, products, and moments in beauty.
0:41.2	Yes.
0:41.7	And some weeks we're reviewing products like the damn good drugstore episode we did at the
0:46.1	beginning of this month where we served up our picks that are all less than $30.
0:51.1	You can go back and check that out if you haven't already to interviewing the
0:55.5	top pros in skincare, hair care, and makeup artistry to get their very best tips for improving

1:29.7	Aaron Foster, the writer and producer from Nobody Wants This and Model Kwanah Chasing Horse,
1:35.3	the list goes on. Everyone she works with looks so gorgeous and effortlessly put together.
1:40.3	And that's the type of energy we want to tap into in today's episode. Now, I know what a lot of our listeners might be thinking because we never usually talk about quote unquote clean beauty. But that really is what Katie is about. She's really dedicated her career to test driving these products, kind of separating the grates from the gimmicks as we do here with
2:01.2	at Breaking Beauty, but strictly in the clean beauty zone. So what does that mean? It's an ever
2:07.6	evolving conversation. What do you think these days, Jill? I mean, I think that you and I haven't,
2:14.4	we've definitely evolved me. It's almost like table stakes at this point,
