Glams, this week we're thrilled to share an episode from IMO’s limited series The Look. In the series, Michelle Obama opens up for the first time about her journey as a defining force in style—both within and beyond the White House. Through candid, intimate conversations with the creative minds behind her hair, makeup, and wardrobe, she reveals how she and her team transformed the scrutiny of her public image into a celebration of self-expression, inclusion, and impact. For many Black women, caring about their hair isn’t a choice – it’s a cultural inheritance, a political statement and a lifelong journey. In this episode, our friend and Beauty Editor-at-Large of Cosmopolitan, Julee Wilson, leads a candid discussion between Michelle, her hairstylist Yene Damtew and Blackish actress Marsai Martin about their personal hair journeys, and and how Michelle’s hair evolution both mirrored and, for some, even inspired their own.

We've got a lot of news, Glams. We're starting with the announcement that Diarrha N’Diaye-Mbaye, the founder of Ami Colé, is stepping in as EVP of Beauty & Fragrance at Skims and discussing what that signals for Kim K’s brand (actual shade work + real-skin finishes) and why the internet’s convo about Black women building the culture still matters here. We also break down Dua Lipa x Augustinus Bader’s DUA launch — does this make sense or are you all as confused as we are? — and wrap with perhaps the most controversial launch of Q4 so far: Rini, Shay Mitchell’s K-beauty–inspired line for kids that is promoting "everyday" sheet masks for toddlers. Yikes.

DermTok’s busiest man is back! This week we’re catching up with Dr. Shah on what life actually looks like as one of the most in-demand dermatologists on social, while still seeing patients in clinic and taking care of a new baby at home. He breaks down what people get wrong about derms who create content and how launching his own line, Remedy, shifted the way he thinks about formulas, trends, and what actually deserves the hype. We’re also talking about what dermatologists are really discussing behind the scenes, including the current state of sunscreen.

We’re starting this episode with a quick check-in for our California listeners about Prop 50 and a look at how the government shutdown is impacting SNAP recipients — plus real, actionable ways to help. Then we dive into a packed news rundown: Ulta’s invite-only marketplace and why more K-beauty is popping up, reports that LVMH may sell its stake in Fenty Beauty (and what that could mean for Kendo), MAC heading into select Sephora locations, the “clean”/Conscious Beauty lawsuit aimed at Ulta, and the FDA’s new communication on RF microneedling and why provider experience really matters. And before we get to all the beauty… can we talk about the wild amount of product placement in this season of Nobody Wants This?!

Your other favorite dynamic duo (Kirbie and Sara) are celebrating the best way they know how this year: by holding space for their alter egos Glinda and Elphaba. They kick off the episode discussing their thoughts on attending Wicked: One Wonderful Night and share anticipation for Wicked: For Good. Then, Kirbie quickly shares an update on Kirboween, her annual Halloween party which took place this weekend. Sara shares a scary video of a robot in full glam working at a hospital, and Kirbie shares her thoughts on the terrifying RSVP culture we’re living through.

For the main event, the girls recall which brands were laid to rest this year, which ones are seemingly ghosting us, and which brand was brought back from the afterlife.

Fragrance fans, this one’s for you. We’re sitting down with Lore founder and former Rhode CEO Melanie Bender to talk about building a world, not just a brand — and why scent was the next frontier.

Plus, we get into the industry rules she’s most excited to break, her current scent obsessions, and the first perfume she fell in love with.
