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%! In other controversial news, we’re chatting about Megan Decker’s story covering the rise and fall of Ephemeral tattoo, the made-to-fade tattoo ink that many are claiming isn’t fading as promised. Yikes! Kirbie and Sara are also sharing a mini gift guide with six products they think will make for memorable presents, from a chic emergency preparedness kit to a screenplay celebrating the movie of the summer.

With all this focus on mini products, we knew a cosmetic packaging expert's opinion was important to share. Allison Kent-Gunn (who goes by @AllisonTurquoise on social) joins us to share her thoughts on the best and worst of beauty product packaging, who is doing it right, and why recycling and refills may not always be the most sustainable option.

It’s Hollywood’s biggest night — the 3rd annual Gloss Angeles Awards are upon us! We’re sharing the nominees, so tune in to hear what brands, people, and products you voted were your favorites for 2023! And of course, do not forget to vote! On today’s episode, we’re talking about Sephora’s recent post featuring sexual wellness products from a brand called Smilemakers. Was the “Firefighter” vibrator a little too much? Some Sephora customers think so. Should they have gone a more subtle route due to the children? Kirbie and Sara share their thoughts. Plus, Bobbi Brown’s Jones Road made over $25M dollars off one set during Black Friday without a single discount. How did she do it? We break down the story from Glossy. And were you a fan of Ban de Soleil’s Orange Gelee? It was discontinued in 2019, but our favorite sunscreen brand Vacation is looking to revive it with your help.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.

We’ve been talking about the chokehold Drunk Elephant has had on the youths for some time now, but is it the brand’s intention to attract a younger customer base? Today, we’re asking the founder herself. Tiffany Masterson joins us to share her thoughts on the brand’s resurgence — thanks to influencers like Alix Earle, Katie Fang and even the Kardashian Kids — and why she thinks Gen Z and Gen Alpha are so obsessed with the brand, how much they’ve actually affected sales, and if a sister brand for teenage skin could be in the works. Tiffany also shares her holiday gift recommendations for those beauty-loving tweens and teens in your life. We’ve also got a fun giveaway, so make sure to follow up on Instagram to learn what's up for grabs and how to win.

If you’re debating whether to ask for a Dyson Airwrap or a Shark Flexstyle this holiday season, you’re going to want to listen to this episode. We talk about the differences between the two, plus Kirbie’s personal reviews of each. We’re also diving into some interesting beauty news: First up, are veneers the new boobs? The Cut pondered this recently after being distracted by big, beautiful grins on The Golden Bachelor. We go into the “tooth” of it all. Next: Should men’s skincare be its own category? This question comes after the news that male-focused brand Disco announced it was filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy after raising $8 million in funding.

Happy almost Thanksgiving, Glams! We are so thankful for each and every single one of you for tuning in week after week and indulging us as we wax poetic about our favorite beauty products and discuss insane news like what US Representative George Santos could’ve bought at Sephora using campaign funds. That’s on today’s episode agenda, in addition to an analysis of Beauty of Fashion correspondent Liz Flora’s latest story on why beauty minis are everywhere right now. Kirbie shares her experience attending beauty’s most inspiring night: the L’Oreal Paris Women of Worth Dinner, where 10 women were honored with $25,000 grants to help support their nonprofits; Sara shares why Chanel’s new serum is nearly $1000 and recounts her time in Paris with the brand perusing the Chanel archives. We are not sharing a Black Friday/Cyber Monday doc as we have in the past, but check out some of our favorite roundups for recommendations on what to shop.

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. Kelly just launched Rile, a skin + body brand for young teens, that we think even the Glams will be excited about.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.
