Michael CeraVe, Brands at the Super Bowl, and Could Lauren Sanchez Save Chemical Sunscreen?

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! We tackle all the beauty brands headed to the Super Bowl this year, and of couse discuss what in the world is going on with Michael Cera and CeraVe. Lastly, we get into the self-tanning drama that took over TikTok this month.

From Developing the Naked Palette to Shutting Down a Brand: Highs and Lows from Developer and Founder Amy Zunzunegui

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.

Should Sephora and Ulta Be Catering to Gen Alpha?

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.comWatch our episodes!CALL or TEXT US: 424-341-0426Instagram: @glossangelspod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.
