Iconic Makeup Artist Max Factor - Part 1

The girls are back and this time with a two-parter! Kelly and Red discuss their relationship to makeup while Red gives a little insight into how school is going. With that in mind, she leads the way in discussing the surprising origins to one of the first makeup artists to the stars, vintage stylist and "father of modern makeup" Max Factor! And with a makeup themed "Do We Love This or That?" and some cliffhangers for next week, you'll want to hear it all before part 2 makes its Hollywood debut!
