Breaking Beauty Podcast

Brrr… is it getting fresh in here? That’s not the cool fall air, it’s Charlotte Tilbury’s new “Cryo” face mask that you strap on straight-outta the freezer! In today’s episode, Carlene & Jill test the latest, buzziest fall beauty products, like Drunk Elephant’s overhauled Vitamin C-Firma Fresh Day Serum that you mix yourself for max potency. Jill dabbles in colour-correcting using Chanel’s fancy new Le Teint concealers. And is Selena Gomez’ highly anticipated first mascara (one entire year in the making) living up to her millions of fans’ expectations? Dr. Dennis Gross cracks the freshness code with swipe-on retinol pads that just may rival the OG Alpha Beta peel on Jill’s permanent top shelf. A Van Gogh-inspired fragrance that truly is a “work of art,” and more must-gets in today’s must-listen episode!

It’s the first day of fall, and a busy AF September. That’s okay because Instagram is on FIRE with beauty lewks that are inspiring us to break out of our bare faced slumps! First up, we recap our top #ICYMI moments from Spring 2022 Fashion Week so far –  including the runway show that inspired Carlene’s new favourite lippie look. Next, we dive into the beauty news of the moment, like what the heck is happening with Beautycon, celebrity plastic surgery doppelgangers and Kylie’s new-new baby-care line (yep!!). 

Finally, Carlene reveals her skincare routine fail that led to a fortnight of itching. Stay tuned as Dr. Laurel Geraghty helps solve our sensitive skin woes, in a phone-a-friend segment brought to you by Cetaphil. You’ll find out the difference between sensitive skin vs sensitized skin, the fastest way to fix a flare up, along with the simple routine (and ingredients!) you need to keep sensitive skin calm, cool and collected (like do you really need to avoid exfoliation?) Join us for a definitive round of True or False, sensitive skin edition.

Just in time for back-to-school SZN, we’re welcoming back LA-based celebrity facialist and skincare founder Shani Darden, whose clients include fellow mamas Jessica Alba, Shay Mitchell and Molly Sims. Some of you might remember Shani from episode 90 when she talked to us about the “Three Facial Treatments Guaranteed to Transform Your Skin.” Today, we’re chatting skincare commandments for the PG 13 human in your life, inspired by Shani’s Instagram series “Skincare Habits to Teach Your Kids,” where she features her own tween daughters, Lennon and Phoenix.  

You’ll find out how many steps works best for an effective AM and PM skincare routine - whether it’s all about healthy hygiene habits or minimizing blackheads and fine bumps in the T-zone. We find out which ingredients are safe for children's skin, as we discover the specific cleansers, moisturizers, sunscreens and masks that Shani personally has lining her daughters’ top shelves. Plus, how young is too young to dabble in professional facial treatments? When is it time to make a dermatologist appointment for your tween or teen? Skin School is officially in session!

Amy Liu is the founder of Tower 28 Beauty - named after the Tower 28 lifeguard tower at the crossroads of the Santa Monica pier and Venice Beach. Based on its rad aesthetic – sunset-esque cream blushes, bronzers and lip glosses tucked into clear acrylic packaging – you’d never guess that it’s the only make-up brand to follow the U.S National Eczema Association’s guidelines, which means their makeup contains zero potentially irritating ingredients for sensitive skin. What’s more, none of Tower 28’s vegan and cruelty-free products cost a penny over $28. 

Tune in to find out why Tower 28 has risen to mass fandom in just two years since its launch, earning celebrity fans like Olivia Munn, Mandy Moore and Kate Bosworth. Amy explains the magic behind the surprising #1 best-seller, the SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray, which people have been using to treat maskne, soothe skin post lasers – anywhere there’s fire. Plus, we chat with the Asian-American entrepreneur about how she’s turning the “California Girl” cliché on its head, and even more inspiring ways she’s mentoring the next gen of BIPOC founders. Then, listen to the end for major hints on what Tower 28 will be planning to drop next!

In today’s episode we are taking a minute to go behind some of the biggest summer beauty headlines - something we don’t often have the opportunity to do here on Breaking Beauty!  

Our guests today are Nick Axelrod-Welk and Annie Kreighbaum, the hosts of Eyewitness Beauty podcast - a weekly show where they talk about the biggest stories in the beauty biz each week, with a healthy dose of pop culture in the mix.

Aside from co-hosting their weekly show, Nick and Annie are also brand founders. Nick co-founded luxe body and personal care line Necessaire, after he worked as an editor at legacy media brands like WWD, ELLE before he co-founded Into The Gloss alongside Emily Weiss. 

And Annie is a newly-minted brand founder of her body care line called Soft Services - She’s also worked at Into the Gloss and Glossier - first as their Editorial Director and then she served as VP of product development.

Tune in as we chat about: Which celeb line is about to pop off? Will the skincare bubble burst? And what’s the next frontier in beauty marketing?

And stay tuned to the end for a round of rapid fire round where we get the deets on their best budget beauty SPF, which designer deodorant is actually worth the splurge, which brand is the cheugiest right now in their opinion -- plus the best tip they ever took away from all of the top shelves they profiled during their Into the Gloss days. 

And this is a podswap so be sure to catch us over on the Eyewitness Beauty feed this week where we discuss even more product news and play a game called “Paula’s Choice”! 

And #ICYMI - mic drop - we now have merch!! Check out our #damngood limited edition extremely soft scrunchies in the perfect cotton candy pink. They’re made from supremely soft sustainable bamboo terry, they never slip or pull hair, and they come in three sizes: Baby, Just Right and Jumbo (the size of a personal pizza!). Shop now in the Dear Media store.
