Breaking Beauty Podcast

Today’s episode is a masterclass in everything you’ve ever wanted to know about boob jobs with NYC-based, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Lara Devgan. Some of *the* most premium A-list celebrities trust Dr. Devgan for her artful and exacting eye, and we’re asking her all the questions we’d want answered if we were ever considering breast enhancement ourselves. Dr. Devgan walks us through the best way to get a natural result with augmentation, like gummy-bear implants vs saline, shape, size – and how to know when it’s time for a replacement set.    Plus, do your nipples and breasts feel the same when all is said and done? Inquiring minds wanna know! Then, we find out everything there is to know about the buzzy fat transfer augmentation procedure we’ve been hearing about, the latest in breast lifts (vampire breast lifts, vacuum breast lifts, Brazilian breast lifts) along with what to expect if you want to downsize. Why celebrities like Chrissy Teigen and Michelle Visage have chosen to remove their implants, breast implant illness and how to mentally prepare yourself for surgery – it’s all in today’s must-listen episode.   Love what Dr. Lara Devgan has to say? Check out episode 144 from our archives, where she schools us on all of the plastic surgery options for hooded eyelids, dark circles, under-eye bags and more.   Get social with us and let us know what you think of the episode!

Saie Beauty launched four months before the pandemic, but instead of closing up shop, it managed to slay anyway. Today, Saie founder Laney Crowell takes us back to her roots growing up in France, China and Los Angeles, before building her beauty start in the cut-throat world of fashion magazines. (She even interviewed to be Anna Wintour’s assistant – seven times!)     Listen in as Laney reveals why even in an increasingly crowded “Clean Beauty” market, Saie was needed anyway, developing climate-neutral certified, best-in-class formulas that have won awards, gone viral on TikTok and earned a celebrity following thanks to the brand’s signature, “Saie Glow.”    For the uninitiated, we find out why the Saie Slip Tint Dewy Tinted Moisturizer SPF 35 Sunscreen is so damn popular, along with scoop on the upcoming Saie Hydra Beam “concealer from the future,” that’s set to drop next. Plus, stay tuned until the end to find out why Saie’s vintage merch using upcycled clothing is hands down the coolest Earth Month initiative we’ve ever seen.   Get social with us and let us know what you think of the episode!

It’s a #DamnGood, spring skin care special! First, we break down Glow Recipe’s highly-anticipated, first ever sunscreen (and point out a striking similarity to a Rihanna fave.) Then, we unpack Curél’s affordable, ceramide-packed moisturizing spray that sold out within days of landing on Amazon in North America. And, are you here for the “beauty snacking” trend? (It’s not what you think!) Stay tuned to the end for our under $15 finds, including a pH-balancing drugstore cleanser and a serum-drenched sheet mask that soothed Jill’s SOS flare-up.   But first, we’ve got Earth Month news!

Clayton Hawkins is the wig-wearing, vintage hot tool-collecting hairstylist to Olivia Rodrigo, Dove Cameron and Emily in Paris’ Ashley Park. Today, we’re diving deep into his tickle trunk, as Clayton decodes the hottest hair trends of 2022, so far. The “shullett,” bottleneck bangs, Y2K baby braids – we’re covering it all, honey. We find out the exact products in the Hollywood hairstylist’s hair kit, from the essential brushes to the $6 dry shampoo and the hot tools – 70s, 90s and new – that he thinks are definitely worth the investment.    But first, we discuss the recent Olaplex headlines that prompted some TikTok users to start binning their hair holy grails. Do they really cause infertility? Jill’s not throwing away her bottle yet, guys! We reached out to the brand for their official statement. (To understand the science behind the study that led to banning of the ingredient in the EU and why testing on rats is different from testing on humans, we recommend watching Dr. Michelle Wong aka @labmuffinbeautyscience's breakdown of this topic.)   Get social with us and let us know what you think of the episode!

Between her unmistakable Massachusetts accent and her next-level looks, TikTok makeup artist Mikayla Nogueira has earned 10.4 million followers in just 2 years. In today’s episode, Mikayla reflects on her epic metamorphosis, from apprenticing as a special FX makeup artist at her father’s haunted house, to her very first viral TikTok video where, scarred from bullies, she hid her iconic accent before learning to embrace her true self.    And since Mikayla is the powerful makeup artist single-handedly making all of those beauty products go viral on TikTok, we find out which Holy Grail items she uses everyday, from her fave indie eyeshadows to her ride-or-die mascara and the front-running longwear foundation she’s testing for her upcoming wedding. Plus, we discover which #1 product turned around her cystic/hormonal acne forever, and we hear about the over-hyped complexion product that failed the Mikayla test.    BONUS: For the first time ever, we have exclusive content available only on TikTok!
