In this solo “No One Asked But…” episode, Nicole Johnson is spilling the tea on all things beauty, aging, and fall fashion frustration—with a healthy dose of humor and real talk. From her recent attempt at celebrity makeup artist Mary Phillips’ viral underpainting contour kit (spoiler: the brush is amazing, but is she blending it into oblivion?) to the eternal struggle of finding jeans that actually fit a 5’1” frame, Nicole gets candid about navigating trends as a grown woman who still wants to feel stylish, without losing her damn mind.
She chats about:
Creamy makeup that actually works on 40-something skin
Why good brushes are worth the splurge
Her favorite skincare staples for sensitive skin
The existential crisis of fashion trends that weren’t made for short girls
The return of the skinny jean (maybe?), but also, who cares?
Fall fashion obsessions: cropped trench coats, oversized denim, chocolate brown everything
And the 90s throwback she’s loving on her nails (hello, Chanel Vamp vibes)
This is the girl-chat episode you didn’t know you needed—whether you’re navigating beauty influencers, Sephora overload, or just trying to survive fall wardrobe updates without throwing out your back (or your favorite old boots).
