Episode Details

When you’re a beauty editor, your skin is your business. But what happens when you’re "in the trenches" with a newborn and scraping the bottom of your skincare stash?

On today’s episode of The Formula, Kelly is joined by the "naughty sister" herself, Mamamia’s OG Lifestyle and Beauty Editor, Erin Docherty. After a year on maternity leave, Erin is back in the hot seat to deep dive into the reality of pregnancy and postpartum skin, the products that actually worked during the newborn haze and how she juggles a 5-minute makeup routine with a one-year-old.

From the $150 serum she actually spent her own money on, to the French pharmacy retinol she’s counting down the days to try, Erin reveals how her "skincare maximalist" ways have been humbled by motherhood.
