Happy October team! This week Ames is FINALLY screaming from the roof tops about her fave Aldi skincare dupes and Charlie is providing her pre-date skincare prep.
Send us a lil DM to say hi @birthday.skin and leave a review if you enjoyed the ep. -
It's the time of year that we all in the advent calendar danger-zone (ESPECIALLY AMY WALL) so this week we take a look at some of the high-end boxes and debate whether they're worth the £7k loan you need for them.
And if you're fighting off some gargantuan spots - take a listen to this episode to get our verdict on spot patches and whether they work....
Oh, and yes, Ames' boyfriend is a boxer now apparently, so watch out.

Don't worry gang, we're here to warn you about the villains of skincare that walk amongst us...
We're talking about the ingredients to avoid, what makes them so nasty and how to make sure you're only buying the nice, friendly ingredients that would never stand you up or talk about you behind your back.
If you want to skip to the skincare chat go to 13:30, or don't and enjoy riveting chat about meal deals and @stratfordgerald – cheers

CBD, it's literally everywhere and seems to of been around for a lifetime, but in the skincare world, what actually is it? how does it work? are cbd and hemp the same thing? so many bloody questions that Charles and Ames look into in this ep.
Also, let's talk about celeb beauty/skincare brands, with the market being so saturated is there really room for more and are they worth buying into?

In the words of Ronald Weasley - EAT SLUGS! (Or snails if you're rummaging through Ames' skincare).
Well slugging seems to have stuck around for a while and all the questions ran through our minds.....What is it? Why would you slug? Is it good for your skin? What are the problems? Is it just an annoying Tiktok trend?
The answers? They all lie in this ep so join Charles and Ames in delving into the world of slugging...
