  • The Truth About Peptides, Plastic Surgery & Skincare Hype with Allure's Linda Wells
    Mar 24 2026
    When Linda launched Allure in 1991, people said she'd never fill a magazine about beauty every month. She proved them wrong for 25 years — giving readers the information they actually needed, without the judgment. Molly and Emese sit down with Linda Wells, the legendary founder of Allure Magazine, for a sharp, no-nonsense conversation about what's actually worth your time and money in 2026. Linda gets real about the plastic surgery obsession sweeping Hollywood and why you should never walk into a doctor's office telling them what procedure you want. She breaks down the skincare ingredients she's excited about, calls out the treatments that are just expensive pampering, and shares the one beauty rule she thinks needs to disappear for good. From GLP-1s and injectable peptides to the deep-plane facelift debate, Linda cuts through the noise the way she always has. Honest, sharp, and a little bit ruthless about the stuff that doesn't work.

  • Belle Burden on Bad Prenups, Betrayal & Finding Yourself on the Other Side
    Mar 17 2026
    Molly and Emese sit down with Belle Burden, author of Strangers: A Memoir of a Marriage, whose story—a sudden betrayal, COVID lockdown, and a marriage that ended overnight — became one of the most talked-about pieces in The New York Times Modern Love column. Belle gets candid about the prenup clause that came back to haunt her, why so many women unknowingly hand over their financial power in a marriage, and why she refused to pretend any of it was "amicable." And she shares the slow, unglamorous process of coming back to herself—and what she'd tell every woman to do differently. This isn't a bitter divorce story. It's a story about self-trust, financial awareness, and the surprising gifts that can emerge from a life coming undone. Strangers: A Memoir of a Marriage is out now. A Sony Music Entertainment production.

  • Stay Snatched: The Toolkit That Actually Works
    Mar 10 2026
    We’re always trying something — new supplements, beauty hacks, sleep routines, shapewear — but today we’re going deeper. Because getting “snatched” isn’t just about how you look. It’s about feeling strong, energized, confident, and comfortable in your own skin in whatever season you’re in. The truth is, what worked in your 20s doesn’t always work now. Hormones shift. Skin changes. Sleep changes. Muscle changes. Confidence evolves. So instead of fighting it, we’ve built a toolkit that evolves with us. In this episode, we’re sharing what’s actually stuck — from creatine, magnesium, colostrum, and GLP-1 transparency to bone broth, muscle-building, sleep fixes, and collagen support. We get into red carpet prep, undergarments that truly smooth and support, eye-brightening tricks, red light therapy, and the beauty tools that are actually worth it. Including one of our current favorites: ThirdLove. Known for their personalized fit (including half cup sizes from AA–H) and seriously comfortable designs, ThirdLove pieces are the kind of basics that quietly make your day better - no adjusting straps, no digging bands, just great fit and quality that actually delivers. If you want to try them for yourself, head to thirdlove.com and use code LIPSTICK15 for $15 off your first purchase. This isn’t about extremes or 14-step routines. It’s smarter, not harder. Consistency over trends. Longevity over quick fixes. Build your toolkit. Stay strong. Stay glowing. Stay snatched — inside and out. A Sony Music Entertainment production.
