You Beauty

This week on The Formula, Kelly McCarron is rummaging through the beauty bag of podcaster, author, model, and Australia’s very own Covergirl ambassador, Ellidy Pullin.
Ellidy is the definition of a joyful, no-fuss beachside gal, but her path to beauty minimalism wasn't always straightforward. She’s lifting the lid on her makeup and skincare journey and how motherhood completely stripped back her routine to a strict 4-minute limit.
Plus, Kelly gets to the bottom of Ellidy's highly unconventional past beauty hacks including parsley face masks and sleeping with onions inside her socks...

If your lips are feeling a little unloved as the cooler weather sets in, you're not alone. This week, Kelly is joined by Amy Clark (filling in for Leigh), and let’s just say they are both having a major lip product moment. They're breaking down the ultimate winter lip combo, including the $38 Mecca find that acts like the "Faber-Castell of lip stains" and the $15 nourishing balm that lets you choose between a "milkshake" or a "thick shake" finish.
Plus, Amy shares the $6 Kmart blush she immediately drove to buy after seeing it on Instagram, a pricey-but-worth-it at-home keratin treatment that claims to banish frizz for three months, and Kelly reveals the groundbreaking, contraband-photo-worthy $160 serum that literally had her flying all the way to Paris and London to investigate.

You may recognise him from Channel 9's The Block, but did you know, Mat Johnson is also an esteemed Hair Stylist and salon owner with over 24 years experience.
This week on The Formula, Kelly and Mat are breaking down the exact hair colours and styles dominating 2026, including why American blondes (think Margot Robbie) look so much brighter than Aussie blondes, and the absolute golden rules for achieving a salon-worthy blowout from home. (Hint: It all comes down to a dry shaft and letting those rollers cool completely). Plus, Mat reveals his number one holy grail product and expert advice for transitioning to grey hair.
