Bella Hadid made major headlines at Cannes by debuting a hair transformation: the famous brunette had what her colorist Jacob Schwartz coined “Supermodel Blonde,” a warm, soft, multi-dimensional shade. Jacob, who is Schwarzkopf Professional’s U.S. Hair Color Trend Ambassador, was actually supposed to film the pod with us a few weeks ago before he got the call, and now that he’s back, he’s sharing Bella inspiration for the look, why we’re seeing warmer tones come back, how he gave Margot Robbie her Barbie press tour color, and his biggest pet peeves as a colorist. Plus, what your colorist should know before taking you to Bella’s supermodel shade.

In this episode, we break down three major celebrity beauty launches: Shakira’s new haircare brand, Jasmine Tookes’ body care line, and Savannah James’ foray into skincare. Are these drops worth the hype or are we hitting peak celeb beauty fatigue? Then, we dissect the recent Business of Fashion piece on Drunk Elephant’s recent decline. Is Gen Z really to blame for the brand’s fall from grace, or is the truth more complicated?

Kim van Haaster quite literally met a man in Ibiza and fell in love. Their happy ending resulted in Kim getting access to a bounty of family-owned tulip fields, which are the key ingredient in her skincare brand Bloomeffects. We join Kim at the incredible fields in Amsterdam for this week’s episode to explain why the tulip is so special, how the brand upcycles the flower for their products, the ingredients within them that helped calm her eczema (and get her off steroids), her family lineage in the beauty industry, and the short window she has to bring select editors and influencers — including us! — to The Netherlands each year. Plus, she shares details on the Black Tulip Regenerative Brightening Serum that 250 of our listeners tested for four weeks ahead of its launch last month and reveals two additional products you can expect from the brand in June.

Second, we filmed this before there were images found of Tia Zakher with her skin condition before her TikTok fame, disproving the clay mask theory. We decided to air the convo anyway, acknowledging the discussion has been disproved.

Today we have a diva among us: Quinnifer Aniston joins her mom at work! We detail our experience with another diva, Ms. Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, then share a product 150 of our listeners have been testing through Gloss Angeles Confidential: SickScience’s jawline defining serum. We were skeptical, but the before and afters at the four week mark are incredible. 

There’s more tariff news, including a retailer who has stopped shipping to the US for the time being. Then we share why we think the outrage over the Boy Smells rebrand is counterproductive when the ethos of the brand truly hasn’t changed.

What does your face say about you, and how can beauty treatments honor that instead of erase it? This week, we’re joined by Vanessa Lee: celebrity injector, founder of The Things We Do, and certified Eastern face reader who’s known for her thoughtful, natural approach to aesthetics.

Vanessa walks us through her signature Facial Balancing technique, how she blends Eastern and Western beauty philosophies, and why face reading plays such a powerful role in her practice. We also chat about her journey from nurse injector to multi-hyphenate founder and content creator, her own personal journey with different treatments, her recent trip to Korea, and the aesthetic trends she’s most excited about.

We’ve got a short news episode today but we cover a lot of ground! Sara shares a story from The Cut about whether or not fragrance should be allowed when you’re getting on a flight. Then, tariffs are taking their toll yet again — this time, it’s coming for the aesthetics industry. Could it be time to kick your Botox appointments? Finally, a recent study showed how women and men differ when it comes to what they find attractive in terms of lips, and the findings are a great conversation starter. 

We have one episode this and next week, then back to our normal schedule in May!

Kirbie’s hosting solo today with the co-founders of Australian suncare brand Ultra Violette! Beauts Ava Matthews and Bec Jefferd stopped by the studio before heading back to Oz to talk about the brand’s expansion into the US and launch in Sephora. The ladies explain why they formulate for every country, what they think about sunscreen boosters in US formulations, misinformation about sunscreen as a whole, what they pay for their employees to get done, and what “gives them the shits” about how sunscreen is marketed.
