Is RuPaul’s Drag Race the Opiate of the Masses?

Hey dolls! Happy Thursday! We are back as usual with more juicy Dollhouse pieces for your perusal – plus an exciting event for ten lucky Dollhouse members.

From a breakdown of Drag Race overload, to an exploration of whether the popularisation of “unaesthetic, unsexy” beauty products is just another way of getting us to buy stuff (via an amazing NYC-based photoshoot), there’s lots to love this week, so let’s get into it…
