What does Trixie Mattel think of the Sephora kids? How does she remove all that black and white eyeliner day in-and-out? And why does she consider her skin “traumatized?” The makeup mogul and drag extraordinaire joins us to chat about her skincare and makeup routine, what Rashida Jones told her that gave her a lightbulb moment, how she’s not like other brand founders, what she would NEVER do as a drag queen, what she learned by working at Sephora and Ulta, and why everyone is going to be obsessed with Hotline, her new black and white gel liner from Trixie Cosmetics! Shop Trixie’s episodeGlossAngelesPod.comhttps://glossangeles.komi.ioCALL US: 424-341-0426Shop products from our episodesJoin our FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/glossangelespodcastInstagram: @glossangelspod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

It's been a minute, but we have four great products we've been loving for WOYF! A lip treatment that will fix the driest of pouts, a matte lip plumper, a bar soap that will whisk you away to Montana, plus a hair styler that will give you roots that touch the sky, there's something for everyone. Then, in news: chemical sunscreen may have a big problem come February 15th, and will potentially need an over $200M bailout. Paging Lauren Sanchez!

Starting a beauty brand might seem glamorous — especially according to social media — but the hard reality is that being a founder and navigating the insanely crowded and complicated beauty space can be disheartening and even impossible. On today’s episode, we have beauty veteran Amy Zunzunegui, founder of recently-shuttered WLDKAT skincare, to give us the honest truth about what it’s like to start and shut down a beauty brand. Tune in to hear what Zunzunegui learned from her days at Urban Decay (developing iconic products like the NAKED Palette and Moondust eyeshadows), what the highs and lows of launching her own brand were, what she was up against when creating CBD beauty products, and what she wants up-and-coming founders to know when starting their own brands.

We’re discussing the “Sephora Kids” phenomenon — an offshoot of our “Tweenage Clean” episode from last year. Reports of children running rampant (and unattended) at the retailer are riling up the internet. Nasty behavior, destroying testers — these are a few things that have people upset. Knowing tweens and teens are eager to shop at beauty retailers, should places like Ulta and Sephora develop sections specifically made for them? Why or why not? Kirbie and Sara debate this topic on the show, but we want to hear from you. Plus, there’s another beauty acquisition to discuss, and we’ve got some interesting beauty tech to explore from trade show CES in Vegas.Shop this episodeGlossAngelesPod.comhttps://glossangeles.komi.ioCALL US: 424-341-0426Shop products from our episodesJoin our FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/glossangelespodcastInstagram: @glossangelspod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

And on the 12th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me A LOT of beauty drama! First up, we’re discussing the news that Smile Direct Club, the DTC teeth aligner company that took the dentist out of the braces equation, has filed for bankruptcy. Shocking? No. Surprising? 100%!

What happens when you've been in the beauty industry for almost 30 years? You have epic stories to share. Kelly Atterton joins us to share what it was like being a beauty editor in the early aughts of magazine publishing — in addition to working at Vanity Fair and Vogue, she served as Allure's Senior West Coast Editor for 17 years under the helm of Linda Wells. Kelly shares an epic WOYF detailing all of the best products she uses, shares about her come-up in an industry where she had no relationships outside of people she met working as a retail associate, and how insane of an experience it was working in publishing before the rise of social media. She also has an incredible story about how she played a part in getting Taylor Swift her first magazine cover.

We have several fascinating stories about the beauty industry to dive into today, so Kirbie invited Glossy's West Coast Correspondent Lexy Lebsack to the show to share her reporting on three key topics: MoCRA's impact on regulating the beauty industry and why we may see less eye products launch as a result, how Prop 65 turned to be a nail in the coffin for several beauty brands, and why owning your formulas is the latest crusade founders are focused on.

There’s a reason celebrities and New York’s “It” girls flock to Sofie Pavitt’s Chinatown studio for her famous facials. It isn’t because they’re looking forward to a luxurious, relaxing treatment. You won’t get that from Sofie. It’s because the South Wales-born esthetician is going to transform their skin. Sofie Pavitt’s before and afters have proven that a simple routine, consistency, and gentle, but efficacious ingredients can get you your dream skin, especially if you’re dealing with acne. She recently launched her own line of products including a Mandelic Acid serum that both Kirbie and Sara swear by. On the pod, Sofie shared why she made the pivot from fashion to facials (she worked at Abercrombie & Fitch during its heyday), the differences between British and American beauty ideals, and the most common culprits for pesky pimples, but more importantly, how to get rid of them. GlossAngelesPod.comhttps://glossangeles.komi.ioCALL OR TEXT US: 424-341-0426Shop products from our episodesJoin our FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/glossangelespodcastInstagram: @glossangelspod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and we are thrilled to have actress and advocate Elizabeth Hurley on the show to discuss the importance of being "breast aware." Elizabeth lost her grandmother to the cancer and was asked by Evelyn Lauder, daugther-in-law to the Estée Lauder herself, to participate as the Global Ambassador for The Estée Lauder Companies’ Breast Cancer Campaign, which she has served as for the last 28 years. She shares how this has become a diverse cancer and how some types of breast cancer affect certain demographics more than others (and why research is so important for this reason), how it's affecting women at a younger age more than ever before, and why early detection is crucial. She also shares some of her favorite beauty products and discusses whether or not she feels the tabloids were worse in the '90s or now.This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, help fund lifesaving breast cancer research by sharing a photo or video using the hashtag #TimeToEndBreastCancer. For every public, in-feed Instagram post featuring #TimetoEndBreastCancer, Estée Lauder Companies will donate $25 to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, up to $75,000, through October 31, 2023. GlossAngelesPod.comhttps://linktr.ee/glossangelespodCALL US: 424-341-0426Shop products from our episodesJoin our FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/glossangelespodcastInstagram: @glossangelspod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Then Sara shares her experience in Palm Springs with Hermès to learn more about their new beauty offerings, from gorgeous quad shadow palettes to beautiful brushes.

Today we have the most-followed dermatologist on social media as our guest, but don't let that title phase you — Dr. Muneeb Shah is a board-certified dermatologist that happens to have 21M+ followers on social media. Dr. Shah (@dermdoctor on TikTok or @doctorly on Instagram) rose to fame on social for democratizing skincare advice from a dermatologist for the masses.He completed his undergraduate studies at Hofstra University, medical school at Nova Southeastern University, and dermatology residency at Campbell University. He recently joined friend-of-the-pod Dr. Bhanhusali at Hudson Derm and Laser Surgery in New York City, where he's a partner. Today we discuss how he got to this point in his career, how he feels about dermatologists leaving the medical field to become full-time content creators, why he loves clinical dermatology and will always continue to see patients, and he answers some rather spooky skincare questions just in time for Friday the 13th, like filler migration, improper use of viral skincare product A313, and the very relevant topic of bed bugs.

Maybe you had a solid three-step skincare regimen as a kid. If you were like us, you were also probably obsessed with beauty in general. But our teenage selves don't hold a candle to current tween regimens. In today's episode, we share a story from Look, Air Mail's beauty and wellness publication, that details the rather involved (and frankly insane) regimens of several 10 to 15-year-olds, which include everything from Drunk Elephant minis to MZ Skin's $145 eye cream and share our learnings from the tweens in our lives. Then we break down why people are so unhappy with Youthforia's latest launch, a made-to-sleep-in foundation that missed the mark on the shade range.

She chatted with us about growing up as a woman of color in the south, what being an influencer was like before influencers were a thing, the product she had to kill before it was ever seen by the public, finding validation for yourself versus spectators, and even teases a few new launches coming from the brand in the next year.

Glams, we'll be taking a much-needed fall break beginning this Friday, so you won't hear from us again until the end of the month when we have a special guest! Today we discuss what we'd do if we hosted our own event a la Beautycon, then dive into what worked (and what didn't) with the event's first production since 2019 under new management. Kirbie attended the show to see what made it different from years past. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What's the most expensive ingredient to formulate with at the moment? Are supply chain issues the reason why our favorite products are constantly sold out? How many units do brands actually order to fulfill retailer needs? These are a few questions Cocokind founder Priscilla Tsai dives into. A former Wall Street banker, Tsai shares how Cocokind has grown and evolved as a brand, including why they decided to stop referring to themselves as "clean" and sustainable.

Let's get down to the science of it all, shall we? We have Javon Ford as our guest today! The fan-favorite cosmetic chemist joins us to share his journey and longtime love of science while spilling about all his go-to products. Ford studied at Howard University and has spent his career formulating and creating skincare, makeup and more, and the last few years educating the masses on social media while dispelling misinformation. He shares the difference between a cosmetic formulator versus a cosmetic chemist, why he prefers expensive sunscreens, an ingredient he sees as an unsung hero, why hyaluronic acid is overrated, the "500-Dalton rule," and how confirmation bias plays into research papers... which is why he doesn't want people doing their own.

We’ve got two things on our minds lately, Glams: *NSYNC and concealers. They are unrelated, but we are passionate about both. On today’s ep, we talk about why we’re seeing a gazillion concealer launches — is it all a coincidence or the result of the same trend forecasting?

Does Kim Kare? That's the question we end this episode on. We discuss why Kim Kardashian is buying back Coty's 20% stake in SKKN. But first, in news that's not shocking to any Glamgeleno: biotin supplements are not all that, and in addition to possibly causing your breakouts, they could be heavily impacting your lab results. We dive into a recent research paper that was published on the supplement, which isn't exactly new information, but it does give us another reason to dislike biotin. Then: while the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strike, high-profile actors are getting their cosmetic surgeries done so they look rejuvenated once filming commences again.

Annie Lawless has created not one but two explosive brands in her career, including Lawless, a fan-favorite Sephora-exclusive cosmetics line. Annie's untraditional foray into the beauty industry perhaps gives her a leg-up on her competitors — she went from selling in prestige grocery stores to creating makeup. Annie details how her career was heavily influenced by the autoimmune diseases she was diagnosed with as a child, and how that lead her to create a brand that could compete with the high-end legacy brands that were free of traditional ingredients she was looking to avoid.

Erin Parsons has captivated TikTok, Youtube and Instagram with her incredible historically-accurate makeup tutorials and fascinating makeup recipe recreations. Prior to amassing nearly 3 million followers across those platforms, she was obsessed with classic movies and makeup, leading her to assist Dame Pat McGrath and eventually work with supermodels like Gigi Hadid and Gisele, all of the top fashion magazines, and become Maybelline's Global Makeup Artist. She joins Kirbie on the pod to discuss how people consumed makeup back in days of Marilyn Monroe and how stars really "sold the fantasy" before things like high definition cameras came into the picture, how researching and learning about makeup has helped her to procure some iconic cosmetic artifacts — like pieces from Monroe's actual makeup kit — what she hopes we bring back from the early aughts, and her favorite drugstore makeup recommendations.Shop Erin's picks hereSubscribe to Erin's Youtube channelGlossAngelesPod.comhttps://linktr.ee/glossangelespodCALL US: 424-341-0426Shop products from our episodesJoin our FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/glossangelespodcastInstagram: @glossangelspod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Another day, another over-the-top Tarte influencer trip that’s got everyone talking over on TikTok. On today’s episode, Kirbie and Sara are breaking down exactly why some people are upset with the beauty brand. We also discuss Beauty Independent’s article on how “reef-safe” sunscreen continues to mean nothing and rate ChatGPT’s beauty advice.

Nancy Twine is the Founder and CEO of Briogeo, likely one of your favorite haircare brands. Nancy launched Briogeo in Sephora 10 years ago as the youngest African-American woman to have her brand carried at the retailer. Today, she joins Kirbie to chat about what it was like launching the haircare line after leaving a stable job on Wall Street, how different the "green" category was a decade ago, the consumer perception of Black-owned brands, and why she feels it's her responsbility to invest in upcoming Black-owned brands.

Happy May! Before we get into today's episode, we'd like to share that we will be discussing Moms and specifically parental death as it pertains to memory. If this is not something you wish to hear, please pass on this episode! Margaux Anbouba, beauty editor at Elle, joins the pod as a guest co-host today to discuss her recent story in the magazine's latest issue. The Scent of My Mother shares what she learned in researching the story and how her late mother's fragrance specifically helps her to conjure up memories she may have lost since her passing. But before we dive into that, Margaux shares her WOYFs — which are excellent — and Met Gala opinions.

You know we love sunscreen 365 days of the year, but summer is upon us, which means it’s time to double down on our SPF. And we were curious — how much are you willing to spend on facial sunscreen? And which ones are you constantly reaching for? If one thing’s for sure, it’s that Glams are passionate about sun protection! On today’s episode, we’re discussing all the sunscreens you shared via comment, text, and hotline voicemail.

Dove's latest Self-Esteem Project Campaign will tug at your heartstrings, if not fully make you sob. Kirbie and Sara watch the spot together and share their thoughts on how social media — and beauty — is taking its toll on young people. The short film was created by Dove in hopes to advance the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) to help protect kids online. You can sign the petition and watch the powerful video here. But first, they discuss Coachella weekend one: what were the overall fashion and beauty trends? What brands won the weekend? Plus, a new report reveals your makeup brushes are disgustingly dirty, controversial influencer James Charles teases his new makeup brand, and a TikTok trend that claims to make you look better actually made Kirbie and Sara look worse.Shop this episodeGlossAngelesPod.comhttps://linktr.ee/glossangelespodCALL US: 424-341-0426Shop products from our episodesJoin our FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/glossangelespodcastInstagram: @glossangelspod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Mona Kattan has been in the beauty community before some influencers in the community could even apply makeup on their own. Kattan is the President and Co-Founder of Huda Beauty along with her sister, Huda Kattan and Alya Kattan.

Our resident mother, Sara, is back! She'll be joining the pod for Tuesday episodes and will soon be back full-time. Upon her return, she shares what she's been up to, has a little cry, and then shares her take on the Barbie, er, Ken discourse. (If you're anti-Barbie and therefore anti-fun, skip to 14:30 to get into the beauty conversation.) Then we make an announcement about WOYF before diving into several new sunscreen launches. We want to know: given how much SPF you're supposed to apply on daily basis, how much are you willing to spend on a sunscreen? Call or text the hotline or send us an email to share your favorite sunscreens and what you spend on them. Then it's time for beauty news: both The Sims and Crayola employed beauty industry veterans to diversify their offerings, Amazon will begin to warn buyers of frequently returned items, and Aesop was bought for $2.5B, which begs the question: how familiar are you with the brand?Shop this episodeGlossAngelesPod.comhttps://linktr.ee/glossangelespodCALL or TEXT US: 424-341-0426Email: glossangelespodcast@gmail.comShop products from our episodesJoin our FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/glossangelespodcastInstagram: @glossangelspod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratan Hosted on Acast.

It may seem like common sense, but the pandemic had a massive impact on our skin. We dealt with mascne to hair loss (your scalp *is* skin!); makeup took a backseat, and with so much time on our hands, we were able to think more about the efficacy of our own regimens and how impactful the ingredients we used were — for better our worse. We spent time wanting to restore our skin barrier and see resilience with our skin. Our haircare regimens became just as involved as our facial routine. And by watching ourselves day in and out on Zoom, we started taking note of all the treatments and surgeries being reviewed on TikTok. Plus, after years of doom and gloom, we wanted to feel more positive and happy versus bland and militant when it came to our skincare routine. Today, Kirbie is covering this topic based on the feature she wrote for Cosmo: "How the Pandemic Came For Your Skin." Spate co-founder Yarden Horwitz and Sula Labs founder AJ Addae were featured sources in the story and join her to discuss just how radically our routines were changed by the pandemic as well as how brands are adapting to these new trends.

This episode is for all the new mamas, moms-to-be, or those who are curious about postpartum nutrition and the importance of the first forty days after birthing a baby.

She grew up next to Joni Mitchell, kicked off her styling career traveling the world with Sarah Michelle Gellar, and has styled the hair of now three Best Actress winners at the Oscars. (Including THE Michelle Yeoh.) Needless to say, Mara Roszak has had somewhat of a charmed existence and, at the same time, seems to be a good luck charm herself. The celebrity hairdesser started working with Emma Stone when she was 17 and is known for her effortless, Laurel Canyon-esque style. She's on the show today to pull back the curtain on how the day of the Oscars goes for a stylist of her calibur, working on several clients — including a Best Actress nominee (and eventual winner) — plus shares details on her new haircare brand Roz.

Today we have a jam-packed news episode. Writer Brennan Kilbane joins Kirbie to discuss his recent story for Air Mail Look, Linda Wells's new publication, about the Barbara Sturm and what makes her so mysterious (and fascinating). He also shares what happens behind-the-scenes as a writer who regulary does celebrity features. Then we're diving into why people can't stop talking about the "Bold Glamour" filter. Why does it look so real? And how is this being used in film and television? Lastly, we're getting into media literacy by explaining how and why certain celebrities are always being written about (and also what people on Tiktok in particular are getting very wrong about this), as well as why Lady Gaga's makeup remover story was the smartest story to come from Oscars coverage.

Chriselle Lim has been a force in the fashion world 15 years. It's not surprise that she took the beauty industry by storm with her brand Phlur, which launched the fan-favorite Missing Person in 2022. Missing Person was able to capture the attention of Tiktok, where people shared how the fragrance brought them nostalgic memories of loved ones. Fragrance is notoriously difficult to market as smelling it is a big part of securing a purchase, but solely through word of mouth on social media, you couldn't find Missing Person anywhere. Chriselle share's with us her entire makeup and treatment routine, why "skin musk" will be the top fragrance trend of 2023, how to find our signature fragrance, her thoughts on the current state of influencer culture, and a lot more.

Big news, Glams! Sara had her baby boy this week! Congratulations to Mom, Dad, Zoe and Ollie! That means Kirbie is solo for a news breakdown. First, she shares why she was on the beautiful island of Mauritius with Fresh Beauty and then dives into her WOYF for the week: an excellent sunscreen that she picked up from the Dubai airport and has both UVA and UVB protection. On the news front, we're curious to hear your thoughts about Glossier as the brand officially enters 600 Sephora stores in the US and Canada this week. Call the hotline and share your hot takes and passionate odes to the brand. And finally, we need to talk about ownership of trends. Sometimes it's warranted — like the dark lip liner trend, for instane. But many creators on TikTok like to take credit for decades-old beauty techniques that they did not create. This time it's draping, a blush application technique that essentially contours the face, sculpting the cheeks upwards and dousing the eyelid in the process. This look was created by makeup icon Way Bandy in the '70s... long before anyone started creating videos about it on social media. Enjoy a mini history lesson on the subject.

We encourage Glams to call the hotline to share their personal faves. In case you missed it, the Rihanna show featuring some football happened over the weekend.

Proclaimed as "the woman keeping the makeup artist industry afloat," Grishan Roof is single-handedly organizing the beauty business into submission. Her account @DepotChopra has fascinated the masses by showing off how she "operates" on makeup products to convert them into their most efficient form. From color-coding foundation to reducing clunky (and breakable) bottles and performing "makeup transplants" on some of the most popular beauty products, this former makeup artist has a lot to share in terms of the benefits of depotting, what she will never depot, and how to know when it's time to give certain products the boot.Shop this episodeGlossAngelesPod.comhttps://linktr.ee/glossangelespodCALL US: 424-341-0426Shop products from our episodesJoin our FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/glossangelespodcastInstagram: @glossangelspod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Chances are, you couldn't escape Tarte's insane influencer trip (even if you tried) last week. They swept away 50 content creators and their plus ones to experience a beauty trip like no other. But it had people questioning where they got all the funds to pull this off. And was Beyoncé involved?

Drama is abundant this week, so we're skipping WOYF and diving right into it. Starting with special guest Jihan Forbes, the former editor and industry expert shares her take on the news that Procter & Gamble is entering a "partnership" with Mielle Organics. As you may recall from our previous news episode, there was a larger conversation at hand after influencer Alix Earle promoted the product on her TikTok. Jihan also discusses the launch of another celebrity beauty brand with us — this time it's John Legend with his new skincare brand, Loved01. Kirbie interviewed Legend ahead of the launch and discussed with both Sara and Jihan the premise of creating products for melanin-rich skin along the overall lack of studies and research on it. Many of you tagged, DMed or called the hotline to ask for our take on Gwen Stefani's comments in Allure, which we'll be covering at length.

So you're trying to get pregnant or you're currently in the midst of pregnancy. It can be confusing, scary and lonely — and that's not getting into the beauty conversation of it all. However, we are a beauty podcast and we often get questions about how to create your pregnancy skincare/makeup/haircare routine: what to avoid, what's "safe," what treatments and ingredients are okay to partake in (or not). We have both a board-certified dermatologist and OB/GYN on the podcast to share their thoughts. While we recommend consulting your personal doctor, we are thrilled that both experts — who we interviewed separately — are aligned when it comes to what's okay to use and what you should avoid during pregancy. Dr. Laura Scott is a board-certified dermatologist and has she served as the Associate Director, Skin of Color Division at University of Miami, Dermatology. Dr. Sara Twogood board-certified obstetrician-gynecologist who practices at Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles and is the co-founder of Female Health Education, a website providing comprehensive information and education about pregnancy and gynecology topics. You'll learn about what ingredients are great to use during pregnancy, what myths you've probably heard passed down from generation to generation that need to be debunked, what data is available for the safety of specific actives, and why we shouldn't blame our skincare routines or why we may not be able to conceive. Plus: can you use microcurrent when pregnant? Can you get rid of stretch marks at home? Why should you avoid hot baths or hot tubs? Will long-term birth control affect your ability to get pregnant? Is exercise a concern during pregnancy? Any many more of your questions, answered.

In what may be the most chaotic episode in our entire library, we kick off things with two addendums to discussions we had in past episodes. Then, Dr. Samolitis calls in to break down the difference between Botox, Dysport (which is currently in Kirbie's face) and Xeomin, which recently named Joe Jonas as the new face of the brand. We dive into why securing a man in the injectables space was a good move, plus all the info on Bath & Body Works' new loyalty program which has us both freaking out.

What teeth are responsible for creating the most havoc in your mouth (and you should make sure are taken care of)? Why should everyone invest in a custom bite guard? And why are veneers so damn expensive? Cosmetic dentist Dr. Michael Apa travels the world creating million-dollar (or at least $50,000) smiles for his patients. Today he's sharing with everyone what to expect with veneers — especially when it comes to maintenance, an added expense many people don't consider — and why the whittled down teeth trend you see on TikTok isn't the way to go. He also shares how the teeth age and his recommendations for maintaining your teeth so they stay as strong and healthy as possible.Shop this episodeGlossAngelesPod.comhttps://linktr.ee/glossangelespodCALL US: 424-341-0426Shop products from our episodesJoin our FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/glossangelespodcastInstagram: @glossangelspod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Turns out the forty-assance really is happening, which why we're seeing a resurgence in "anti-aging" products and brands made specifically for women 40+. Plus, Johnson & Johnson will go talc-free come 2023, which begs the question: should you throw out all your talc-based makeup? And, unfortunately, a trend that combines two of our least favorite things: tanning in the sun and open buttcheeks. We're serious.

Typically, when you finish a product, it's a good thing. As beauty editors, it's a little more complicated: testing is our job, and while we may use a product to the last drop, it doesn't necessarily mean we'd recommend it or buy it again. You can enjoy a product but that doesn't make it a holy grail, right? Today we're discussing 10 products we've made our way through, why they stayed in our rotation, and if we think they're worth the ultimate repurchase. Check out all 10 products here.

Facial aging: what happens when we get older? Dr. Amir Karam, the San Diego-based double board-certified plastic surgeon, promotes the fact that aging is inevitable, but also, taking care of your skin is a crucial part of prevention. In today's episode, he explains how skin changes contribute to facial aging just as much as volume loss and laxity, what types of skincare products are pertinent to keeping your skin looking pristine, how filler (when it goes overboard) can cause scar tissue and ultimately stay in the skin, the impetus for creating Vertical Restore (his incredible facelift technique), what treatments he'd personally avoid as a plastic surgeon, and the point of differentiation with his own skincare line, KaramMD.

Welcome to Beauty Court. Today, we're playing listener voicemails regarding a question we posed at the end of episode 248: do founder stories influence you to buy a product? Alternatively, if a founder's beliefs don't agree with yours, if the product is good — do you care? This week we also celebrate National Liptick Day and there's major sales going down at Ulta Beauty. Twitter has been abuzz with the reveal that the 10-step K-Beauty routine may not be a thing Koreans *actually* do. So how did this "trend" get blown out of proportion? And finally, there's another celebrity beauty scandal: did Treslucé Beauty copy their brand identity from Araceli Beauty?

Tiara Willis is a 20-year-old licensed esthetician whose influence began on Twitter as @MakeupForWOC. Now, she's leading the conversation on the platform about important skincare topics and sharing her favorite products (and the ones she's not a fan of) with her engaged community. Tiara amplified the "two finger rule" tip for sunscreen application, changing how people think about and wear SPF, and made CeraVe a must-have for beauty fanatics. She's on the show to talk about her experience with acne — which is what encouraged her to attend esthetics school and learn about the skin — and how she helps others on their skincare journey. She'll explain why mandelic acid is *the* ingredient you should be using if you're experiencing acne, the brands she feels are the most effective for clearing up the skin, why laser hair removal might be a good option for acne, and will walk us through how she would treat a client coming to her for help.Shop this videoGlossAngelesPod.comhttps://linktr.ee/glossangelespodCALL US: 424-341-0426Shop products from our episodesJoin our FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/glossangelespodcastInstagram: @glossangelspod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Glams, so much news to cover today. First and foremost, we get into the ins-and-outs of the most prolific TikTok account of our time: Penelope Disick's. She may be 9, but she's gunning for Steven Soderbergh's job. Next, Kirbie discusses the three products she's been using that has taken her skin from straight up decrepit to bouncy, firmer and moisturized within two days. Sara breaks down what it really means when a celeb signs on as a creative director, which deviates into a discussion of how celeb sign on as "co-founders" after a brand has already been established. And Kirbie recounts her three hours with Colson Baker, aka Machine Gun Kelly, for an Allure exclusive on his lacquer brand. Tune in to hear all of that PLUS MGK's FaceTime to Pete Davidson.

His product, Heraux Molecular Anti-Inflammaging Serum is one of our favorites on the pod, so we brought Ben on to discuss what causes the process, how Heraux works, advancements he's currently working on, and what outside factors contribute to inflammaging overall.

Glams, huge news. First off, Kirbie and Sara are losing it over the thought of Selena Gomez and Chris Evans dating. What would their celebrity couple name be? Sara then shares her experience getting PRP injected into her face with Dr. Jason Diamond, one of LA's top plastic surgeons. In not-so-shocking news, Sara recommends yet another body product.

Who reigns supreme in the land of beauty? When it comes to celebrities, these top 10 (er, top 9 if we’re being honest) are at the top of their game. Sara quizzes Kirbie in this week’s rendition of Data Girl on those power rankings. Kirbie shares her recent story for Allure about biotin — how it’s probably not growing your hair out, it could be affecting your bloodwork, and might even be contributing to your breakouts.

We have gushed about NuFACE many times on the pod, so it's shocking it took us *this* long to get woman behind the first-ever at-home microcurrent device on the show! Tera Peterson co-founded NuFACE in 2005 with her mother, a fellow aesthetican and decades-long user of professional microcurrent treatments at the spa. We're often asked about how to incorporate microcurrent into your routine, how it actually works, who it's best for, and if you *really* need to invest in those NuFACE activators, so is Tera dishing all of the details for us. Plus, she's introducing two new products to the NuFACE lineup: new activators that double as skincare.

There's been so much news (and drama!) within the sunscreen industry that we thought a primer on the history of SPF was due for The Glossary. We talk about sunscreen nonstop on the pod, but how does it actually work? What's the best way to reapply over makeup? How is it regulated? Is SPF 50 really better than SPF 30?

Hyram Yarbro was born and raised on a cattle ranch in Arizona to a Mormon Family, not paying much attention to skincare. After moving to Hawaii, getting a sunburn (how times have changed!) and needing a product to help conceal the redness, he ventured into a Sephora and learned quickly the power of cosmetics. Fast forward to 2017, Hyram launched his Youtube channel, advocating for his audience to learn more about the ingredients in their skincare. In 2020, Hyram was the #1 skinfluencer on Youtube and TikTok, filming 5-6 videos a week along with creating content for TikTok and Instagram. After reviewing a variety of brands, he was determined to create his own. He was about to order all the components to create his own products when he took a meeting with Mark and Colette of The Inkey List. It was then that Selfless by Hyram was born.We spoke with Hyram about a variety of things, from how his religion growing up impacted his work ethic, his mental health as a content creator, how many brands reach out to him (per week!) to work with him, the causes his brand directly gives back to, and of course had to ask him about his ingredient preferences. Selfless by Hyram is available at Sephora now!

And we wrap things up with some industry news: Beirsdorf is refuting claims that artificial blue light affects the skin, while Jessica Alba is getting that money, Honey, as Honest Company goes public.

On this episode, David talks about his mission to redefine beauty and masculinity, how he deals with imposter syndrome, and what makes his skincare products different and better than what’s currently out there. He’s also generously offering Glamgelenos a very good discount on the products, so be sure to listen to the entire episode to see what it is and use our code!

If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to create a beauty product from scratch, consider today’s episode your first lesson. Our guest knows A LOT about making makeup and skincare products from ideation to launch, thanks to his decade-long career working in the industry. Daniel Kiyoi became the Creative Director of Tarte at just 26 years old and is responsible for helping create and design some of the brand’s most popular products. Now, he’s creating beauty brands under his own incubator agency called Magic Dusk. (That Luminizer Kirbie was raving about a few episodes ago? That’s Daniel’s co-creation.) Daniel chats with us about how he landed in the industry, how his mom’s career at Mary Kay influenced his passion for beauty, and what entrepreneurs should know about starting their own line.Glossangelespod.comFacebook: Gloss Angeles (Join our group: Gloss Angeles Glamgelenos)Instagram: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

The business of beauty is a big one, but when it comes down to it, there are eight mega companies that have a hold on the cosmetic market and own a huge number of our favorite makeup, hair, and skincare brands. On today’s episode, we break down which brands are sisters and what parent conglomerates own them, from L’Oreal to LVMH. You might be surprised to learn that your favorite drugstore lipstick is made by the same company that formulates your go-to luxury moisturizer. That said, just because a company owns different brands doesn't mean they swap trade secrets, or even that their formulas change. Learn about what companies own what brands, which incubators are on the rise, and get your top acquisition questions answered.Glossangelespod.comFacebook: Gloss Angeles (Join our group: Gloss Angeles Glamgelenos)Instagram: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

You don’t need to be a fan of the show ‘Euphoria’ to understand the impact Donni Davy’s makeup artistry has had on the industry, let alone pop culture. Those rhinestone-studded cat eyes or glitter tears that’s been crowding your IG feed? It’s all thanks to Donni’s influence. And while we’re obsessed with the bold and unapologetic makeup movement she helped start, there is so much more to Donni’s work than meets the eye (no pun intended). On today’s episode, we sit down (virtually, of course) with the Emmy award-winning makeup artist to hear how she got her start on Craigslist, what it’s like to be a makeup department head, and how she develops the looks for her characters, both for TV and film. She also shares the one product that is always in her kit (surprise, it’s affordable!) and discusses her new face decal collaboration with Face Lace. Makeup lovers, aspiring MUAs, and ‘Euphoria’ fans do not want to miss this episode!*Warning: mention of sexual assault from 44:36-45:37*Glossangelespod.comFacebook: Gloss Angeles (Join our group: Gloss Angeles Glamgelenos)Instagram: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

A few weeks back, we raved about the one and only Droplette: a misting device that uses technology to deliver ingredients not on top of the skin, but into the skin. Looking for a solution for a medical disorder, founders Madhavi Gavini and Rathi Srinivas saw the value Droplette offered the skincare industry, and thus a device was born. We had so many questions about the product itself after featuring it on What's on Your Face that we figured the best people to answer your questions would be the founders themselves! If you're considering getting a Droplette, listen to this ep first to learn the science behind it, how it works, the proper way to use it, and what ingredients they have to offer.

We are still in shock from the news that after 20 years, Becca Cosmetics will cease operations in September. We have our thoughts on what could have ultimately lead to the downfall of the cosmetics brand. In our new (and certainly recurring) segment Celebrity Skin, we have a slew of celebrity launches to discuss. (Yes, more!) We dive into one of the incubators behind many celebrity-lead brands to give intel on what we may see more of in the future. Plus, there's a ton of new product launches you'll want to be on the lookout for, from a new setting powder from a Sara-beloved brand to body makeup from Robyn "Rihanna" Fenty herself. This week Kirbie caps off the show with a luminizer you'll be gunning to get your hands on.Glossangelespod.comFacebook: Gloss Angeles (Join our group: Gloss Angeles Glamgelenos)Instagram: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

In 2015, Melissa Butler pitched her brilliant business on ‘Shark Tank’ — a bold, colorful, and inclusive beauty line that she believed would disrupt the market. She was rejected and criticized, but that didn’t stop her. Years later, The Lip Bar would become one of Target’s best-selling makeup brands, garnering a huge fan base which included the likes of Michelle Obama (more on that in the episode!). Now, Melissa is partnering with Walmart to make her incredible beauty products even more accessible to everyone. In our interview, Melissa shares how she got into Target (it involves a blind email), the sacrifices she had to make to grow the brand, and why she’s so excited about working with a corporate retail giant, despite its bad rep. Plus, Melissa shares a Gloss Angeles exclusive having to do with her organization The BLK PACT — you don’t want to miss it.Follow The Lip BarGlossangelespod.comFacebook: Gloss Angeles (Join our group: Gloss Angeles Glamgelenos)Instagram: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

When it comes to celebrity estheticians in Hollywood, Kate Somerville is the OG. Kirbie and Sara have been longtime fans of Kate and her products, as well as her famous clinic on Melrose Place. But there’s a lot more to know about Kate than the famous faces she’s worked on or the skincare she’s made. In our interview with the legend herself, Kate shares stories about growing up in a barn, her battle with eczema, and how she transformed Janet Gaynor's (the first woman to win an Academy Award) old home into a beauty institution. We also picked her brain about the future of aesthetics, why peptides are so necessary, and the latest addition to her skincare range, KateCeuticals.Follow Kate Somerville on InstagramPurchase KateceuticalsGlossangelespod.comFacebook: Gloss Angeles (Join our group: Gloss Angeles Glamgelenos)Instagram: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

In honor of Valentine's Day — or Galentine's Day as we like to call it over here at Gloss Angeles — we have Matthew Herman, co-founder of Boy Smells, on the pod to discuss all things candles, fragrance, and emotions (specifically the ones that certain scents can evoke). Matthew and his partner David Kien founded the brand in their LA kitchen as an experiment back in 2016 and now, Boy Smells is one of the most popular candle brands on the market. They even have a collab with the one and only Kacey Musgraves (you've heard Kirbie talk about their "Slow Burn" candle on the pod, no doubt).

Don't be offended — we've been in your exact position. That's why we're sharing our tips on how to avoid these three extremely common mistakes you're making when it comes to your skincare routine. They may sound like common sense, or they may surprise you — it's hard to know since skincare is so personal.

TikTok is the reason many of us have kept our sanity this year due to its thriving algorithm and insanely watchable videos. There's tons of beauty gems to be found but also quite a few ideas we wouldn't recommend partaking in.

Before you overhaul your haircare, listen to today's ep to get a handle on what's really happening.We also discuss two products we are super impressed by this week: drops that instantly dry your nail polish and a new beauty brand that doesn't compromise on performance while also making products that are truly Earth-friendly.

We're singing the praises of 6 brands, including skincare, makeup and haircare saviors.

Olamide Olowe and Claudia Teng are not your typical beauty brand founders. They’re young (Gen Z, represent), they’re women of color, and they are encouraging their customers to embrace their chronic skin conditions. While Topicals’ products are made with scientifically-proven ingredients aimed to help issues like eczema, rosacea, and acne, they aren’t meant to “fix” your skin. Olamide and Claudia want their fans to know that flare-ups can be fun or at the very least, not the end of the world. That said, their hero products — Faded, a brightening gel and Like Butter, a hydrating mask — are amazing. We are both huge fans and we are not alone — the brand launched in August and has already amassed a large, loyal following. During our conversation, Olamide and Claudia share how they came to launch Topicals, what they think the beauty industry gets wrong about chronic skin conditions, and why mental health is such an important part of their brand.

If you’re a beauty lover (which you obviously are since you listen to this podcast) then you’re likely an avid reader of Allure, too, like us. That’s why this episode is extra special — we’ve got Allure’s editor in chief, Michelle Lee, and Allure’s executive beauty director, Jenny Bailly BOTH on the podcast!

Michelle and Jenny also talk to us about Allure: The Science of Beauty, a podcast they recently launched that explores the link between science and beauty. In each episode, they do a deep dive with an expert into a specific beauty topic, demystifying questions you’ve always wondered like what a wrinkle actually is and whether or not pores can open and close. If you like our episodes where we dissect a specific ingredient or topic, then you’ll love The Science of Beauty. Be sure to give it a listen!  Hosted on Acast.

Big news today: SARA'S BACK! Our resident Hot Mom is making her grand return to Gloss Angeles and we have a ton of a ground to cover. First of all, we've all been thirsty for newscasters. Does anyone have Chris Cuomo's information? (We kid... kind of.) Kirbie bought some goodies at the Sephora sale including a fragrance everyone needs to get this winter because it's like capturing the scent of a burning match... but in a good way. It was hard to see past all the Election coverage, but one New York Times article managed to cause a huge fuss: Is This the End of the Manicure? pissed off a bunch of people and Kirbie has some thoughts. Then we talk about a ton products we're loving right now, like a tinted moisturizer that's got everyone raving, a hyperpigmentation gel that smells odd but works like a charm, a tattoo artist's venture into the beauty realm, a baby lotion that Sara's been using on herself, and an app that's helped take down Kirbie's stress levels.

Today is our Halloween episode! Halloween and Hocus Pocus are synonymous with each other, and if you grew up watching the 1993 classic, chances are it has a special place in your heart. Hocus Pocus is one of Kirbie's top 5 favorite films, and today's guest is the creator of Billy Butcherson's incredible special effects makeup and the animatronic puppet, Binx the cat.Special effects makeup artist and puppeteer Tony Gardner's story is truly what movies are made of. He’s known for his SFX makeup work in film, tv and music videos, including Zombieland, Bad Grandpa, 127 Hours, Hairspray and Sasha Baron Cohen’s ‘Who is America.’ He’s transformed stars like John Travolta, Gwyneth Paltrow and Katy Perry and is the man responsible for Daft Punk’s incredible helmets. Today he joins us because of his work on some fabulous Halloween films, from The Addams Family to The Blob, The Craft to the Chucky series, and of course, Hocus Pocus. Today he shares his first experience on set (which is nothing short of iconic), talks about getting a job offer from legendary SFX makeup artist Rick Baker, dropping out of school to follow his dreams, debunking some myths about the movie, the makeup and filming process for Binx and Billy, and even offers a preview of what we can expect from Hulaween, the mini Hocus Pocus reunion Bette Midler is putting on tonight for the New York Restoration Project. All details on Tony, his company Alterian and Hulaween will be available on our website for you to check out, and be sure to head to our Instagram to see some behind the scenes pics too!

BeautyStat is a fan favorite here at Gloss Angeles. It's one of those products we trust because it works.

Sharon Chuter's story is incredible. We have her on the show because of the work she's doing with the Pull Up or Shut Up initiative — a movement she created — where brands are being asked to disclose not only how many black employees they have, but how many are in leadership positions.

She is the founder, CEO and creative director of UOMA Beauty, a brand a little over a year old that's all about breaking the status quo. Sharon explains why this movement is essential to progress, how it will benefit black lives (and livelihoods), reveals which popular black-owned brand is not actually blacked-owned, and shares her best piece of business advice.Follow SharonFollow UOMA BeautyFollow Pull Up or Shut Up Hosted on Acast.

We instantly thought of one of our favorite e-tailers, Dermstore, who has been a leader in the skincare space and online beauty shopping since it was created in 1999 by a dermatologist. 14 years later, they were acquired by Target and have quickly built a curated assortment of the finest brands in beauty. President Cyndi Isgrig joins us today to discuss what differentiates as brand you find at Dermstore vs. other retailers, how shopping for your favorite products will change over the next year and what product she thinks we'll see more of in 2020. Plus, a distasteful launch that's ruffled our feathers and a shoutout to a special listener!Follow Dermstore What's on Your FaceKirbie: Slurp Laboraties Hyaluid ($60) and Niacid ($41)Sara: Huda Beauty's Legit Lashes ($27, out May 20) Hosted on Acast.

Rosacea affects 415 million people worldwide.

CBD is easily one of the most pitched products in our inboxes. We sometimes feel so overwhelmed with CBD brands and products that it can be easy for us to want to move on to the next big trend. The fact is, however, that most people are just discovering this "gorgeous molecule" (as Casey Georgeson of Saint Jane puts it). We invited Meredith Schroeder, co-founder Fleur Marché — an e-comm site decidated to wellness-focused cannabis products and tauted as the "Sephora of CBD" — on the pod to break everything down: what are the real benefits of CBD, what claims can be made, how do you find the perfect CBD product, can it get you high, and what's next when it comes to CBD? This episode is brought to you by Cherie. New LaunchesSunday Riley Clean Rinse, $48Tarte Hydroconcealer, $24What's on Your Face?Kirbie: Monestary XX Rose Glycolic Gel, $74Sara: Dermalogica Invisible Physical Defense SPF 30, $54Products from this episode can be found here.

April 22nd is Earth Day! On today's episode, we're focusing on how to incorporate sustainable products into our routine, what to look for (because even we get confused) and brands that are walking the walk and talking the talk. Because the term "sustainable" can have a variety of meanings, we invited friend of the podcast and redeeming Aquaruian Jenny Ong on to discuss her journey to curating her own sustainable stash, what she looks for in a product before using or purchasing it and ways we can start becoming more mindful when it comes to our routines. This episode is brought to you by Cherie.

It’s no secret we love prestige brands, like a fancy serum or decadent créme, but we also believe good skin care doesn’t mean spending hundreds of dollars. Our personal philosophy is you should only buy what you need. If something is working for you, keep doing it! You don’t need every product you see posted about on instagram, websites, and yes, even Gloss Angeles. But if you are shopping to update your regimen, you don't need to dole out a ton of cash to get an efficacious product. We reached out to our friends at CVS about doing a drugstore-themed episode and they graciously gave us gift cards to curate our own skin care regimen at the store.

It's a beauty editor kiki! Zoë Foster Blake is one of Australia’s most celebrated beauty experts. But before she became a beauty brand founder, she was just like us — a beauty editor! Zoe was the beauty director of Cosmopolitan and Harper’s BAZAAR Australia. She then went on to write a few books, including Amazing Face, a best-selling beauty bible, and then decided to start her own beauty blog back in 2006. After years of reviewing and using every kind of skin care product on the face of the earth, Zoë decided to take a stab at creating her own. She wanted to make something that was simple, stress-free, and more about self-love than “fixing” stuff. Thus Go-To Skin Care was born. Go-To focus on clean formulas and has a cheeky brand voice. With the success of her brand, Zoë launched Gro-To Skin Care, a clean line for kids. It's super cute, trust us. Listen to learn how Zoë editorial expertise equipped her to become a standout brand founder.L'Oreal Paris Age Perfect LineCreamy Powder Foundation ($16)Lash Magnifying Mascara ($11)Radiant Serum Foundation ($12)Luminous Hydrating Lipstick ($9)What's on Your FaceMarc Jacobs Re(cover) Hydrating Coconut Lip Oil ($28)Saie Glowy Super Gel ($25)Go-To Skin Care Fancy Face Nourishing Oil Cleanser ($34) and IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Undereye ($27) Hosted on Acast.

Sasha Plavsic is the founder of ILIA Beauty, a prestige line of natural and organic beauty products that combine superior color performance and nourishing organics based in Laguna Beach. Before Sasha started the company, she had years of branding experience helping beauty and wellness companies, including Urban Decay and Saje Natural Wellness. So when she discovered that there wasn’t any existing clean beauty products that were not packaged in bamboo, she found herself with a goal in mind (and the experience to back it up): create a tinted lip balm that was luxurious and didn’t contain any nasty ingredients. Fast forward to today and ILIA is one of the leading clean color cosmetics brands out on the market. We’re talking to Sasha about starting her brand as well as Ilia’s latest launch: the Super Serum Skin Tint.--Follow us on Instagram: instagram.com/GlossAngelesPodShop all of our product lists: http://www.shopstyle.com/shop/GlossAngelesShop Kirbie’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/Kirbie-JohnsonShop Sara’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/saratan Hosted on Acast.

Vicky Tsai, founder and “Chief Treasure Hunter” of Tatcha, one of the most beloved skin care brands of the last decade and one of our favorites here at Gloss Angeles. After graduating from business school and working for large corporations, Vicky spent years traveling back and forth from the states to Asia. She developed acute dermatitis and tried everything to treat her skin. During her time in Japan, Vicky discovered the world of Japanese beauty, thanks to an encounter with a modern-day geisha. She loved how pure, simple, and effective the classical Japanese beauty philosophy was and decided she wanted to share the secrets and ingredients she learned about with the rest of the world. Today, Tatcha works with scientists in both Japan and the U.S. to create formulations from scratch that honor traditional Japanese beauty practices, but are made with advanced technology and innovation.Vicky also discusses Tatcha's new Serum Stick and what makes this new launch so special. ---Follow us on Instagram: instagram.com/Gloss_AngelesShop all of our product lists: http://www.shopstyle.com/shop/GlossAngelesShop Kirbie’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/Kirbie-JohnsonShop Sara’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/saratanGloss Angeles is co-hosted by Kirbie Johnson and Sara Tan.

Is beauty sleep real? How long should you really be sleeping? Plus a warning about melatonin. We're answering all of your most-asked sleep questions today on the show with The Sleep Doctor himself. Dr. Michael Breus is a Clinical Psychologist, a Diplomate of the American Board of Sleep Medicine, and a Fellow of The American Academy of Sleep Medicine. He specializes in sleep disorders and is one of the only psychologists in the world with his credentials and distinction. Dr. Breus has authored a number of books, tours the world lecturing on sleep, has appeared on CNN, Oprah, and The View, and is also on the clinical advisory board of The Dr. Oz Show. Dr. Breus has a private practice in LA where he helps his clients figure out how to sleep better, which is his main mission in life. We met Dr. Breus at an event for the launch of Mighty Night, a new supplement from HUM Nutrition that encourages more restful sleep and promotes healthier-looking skin. The event was the most engaged we'd ever seen an audience; he had a line out the door after his presentation. Clearly, getting good sleep is something people desperately want to know more about. We wanted him on the show to bring this information to you. Learn more about your Sleep Chronotype at ChronoQuiz.com. (For the record, Kirbie is a bear 🐻and Sara is a dolphin 🐬. Go figure.)  Follow Dr. Breus: https://thesleepdoctor.com/ https://twitter.com/thesleepdoctor https://www.facebook.com/thesleepdoctor This episode is brought to you by HUM Nutrition.

April Gargiulo is the founder of Vintner’s Daughter, the cult-favorite brand beloved by skincare fanatics, from celebrities and beauty editors to clean beauty devotees and face oil enthusiasts. When April became pregnant with her first daughter, she tried to find a skincare product she could use that was free from chemicals and murky ingredients — she couldn’t find any. April had spent years working in her family’s wine business, learning the importance of quality formulation and ingredient sourcing, so using the same practices she learned on the vineyards, April decided to take a stab at creating her own beauty solution. The result? The Active Botanical serum, a holy grail skincare product made with whole botanicals and packed with nutrients that could replace your entire skincare routine while delivering dramatic results. Since then, she’s also created the Active Treatment Essence, which has also garnered a massive fanbase. Pick up Vintner's Daughter:Active Botanical SerumActive Treatment Essence----Thank you to our presenting sponsor, HUM Nutrition!Wing Man ($25)What's on Your Face?Kirbie: Alpha-H Liquid Gold ($60)Sara: Glossier Pro Tip Liquid Eyeliner ($16)---Be sure to subscribe and review us on Apple Podcasts: bit.ly/Gloss_AngelesListen to us on Stitcher and Spotify, too!Follow us on Instagram: instagram.com/Gloss_AngelesShop all of our product lists: http://www.shopstyle.com/shop/GlossAngelesShop Kirbie’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/Kirbie-JohnsonShop Sara’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/saratanGloss Angeles is co-hosted by Kirbie Johnson and Sara Tan.

Our job is to try everything at least once, but that doesn't mean we don't pump the breaks when it comes to certain ingredients. We've learned over time what our skin can withstand, and we notice patterns when it comes to how our skin reacts to specific ingredients. Is it the ingredient itself, or how it's formulated? Consider this episode your roadmap — by no means are we saying all products with these ingredients are bad, but if you find your skin is breaking out, overly sensitive or has developed an adverse reaction to a certain product, this can help you narrow down a possible culprit.---Thank you to our presenting sponsor, HUM Nutrition!Glow Sweet Glow ($25)What's on Your Face? Kirbie: In Common Beauty Hair System ($105)Sara: NÉCESSAIRE The Body Exfoliator ($30)NÉCESSAIRE The Sex Gel ($20)References:Effects of Biotin - Into the GlossAre Essential Oils Safe for the Skin? - Women's Health UKWhat Coconut Oil to Avoid if You Don't Want to Break Out - POPSUGAR---Be sure to subscribe and review us on Apple Podcasts: bit.ly/Gloss_AngelesListen to us on Stitcher and Spotify, too!Follow us on Instagram: instagram.com/Gloss_AngelesShop all of our product lists: http://www.shopstyle.com/shop/GlossAngelesShop Kirbie’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/Kirbie-JohnsonShop Sara’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/saratanGloss Angeles is co-hosted by Kirbie Johnson and Sara Tan.

One of the biggest parts of Kirbie and Sara’s jobs are testing new beauty products, so it only makes sense that they share their current favorites with Gloss Angeles listeners.

90% of aging comes from daily sun exposure — not major sunburns! Today we’re breaking down sun protection, the different types of rays that cause both burns and pre-mature aging and how much sunscreen is essential for optimal coverage. However, another important aspect of sun protection is what to do after you’ve been in the sun or gotten a burn, because chances are you'll have a burn in your lifetime. What ingredients should you avoid, how to keep your skin in good shape, plus how to treat it in the best way possible — all in today's episode.Rise of skin cancer in the Pacific Northwesthttps://www.kezi.com/content/news/Pacific-Northwest-has-some-of-the-highest-skin-cancer-rates-in-the-US-487544601.html90% of aging comes from daily sun exposurehttps://www.skincancer.org/blog/photoaging-what-you-need-to-know/CBD-infused after-sun care: Divioshttps://diviosnaturals.com/Be sure to subscribe and review us on Apple Podcasts: bit.ly/Gloss_AngelesListen to use on Stitcher and Spotify, too!Follow us on Instagram: instagram.com/Gloss_AngelesShop all of our product lists: http://www.shopstyle.com/shop/GlossAngelesShop Kirbie’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/Kirbie-JohnsonShop Sara’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/saratanGloss Angeles is co-hosted by Kirbie Johnson and Sara Tan.

You asked, we answered! A question we often get is “How do I read a product label?” We get it. Labels are very confusing. For instance, did you know hypoallergenic actually means nothing? Manufacturers can make these claims, however, the FDA does not have a formal process for determining what products are deemed “hypoallergenic." How bizarre.https://www.fda.gov/cosmetics/cosmetics-labeling-claims/hypoallergenic-cosmeticsToday, we’re explaining how to read an ingredients list, what certain logos mean (or don’t mean), plus what terms to be weary of — what’s marketing jargon and what’s the real deal. ---Apps to tell you what's in your beauty products:https://www.bustle.com/p/5-apps-that-tell-you-whats-in-beauty-products-because-knowledge-is-power-11997650Be sure to subscribe and review us on Apple Podcasts: bit.ly/Gloss_AngelesListen to use on Stitcher and Spotify, too!Follow us on Instagram: instagram.com/Gloss_AngelesShop all of our product lists: http://www.shopstyle.com/shop/GlossAngelesShop Kirbie’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/Kirbie-JohnsonShop Sara’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/saratanGloss Angeles is co-hosted by Kirbie Johnson and Sara Tan.

In today’s episode, we’ll break down the 8 steps (yes, 8!) while discussing a few controversial opinions about the order.
