Buckle in, it's a long one. Sit down with Abi, Eden, and Meghna as they talk all things beauty. In this episode, they address East, South East, South, West, Central, AND North Asian beauty standards, particularly picking up on the distinct lack of attention towards these latter three regions of Asia.
