Gloss Angeles

You've heard us discuss neuromodulators on the podcast before, but they aren't one-size-fits-all. Vanessa Lee, RN (and founder of The Things We Do) is back to break down what sets Jeuveau® apart, who it suits, and how it stacks up in recent head-to-head data. (Plus, Sara shares her experience with it so far!) Then, we tackle your Slack Qs: subtle celeb-style tweaks on a budget, microneedling timelines for acne scarring, sun-spot solutions, rosacea care at home, and where high-frequency wands actually fit into your routine.

Vanessa Lee was compensated by Evolus to appear in the first segment of this podcast.

This episode is full of counterfeit products and dupe talk, Glams! First, we make our plea for Miss Piggy to join us on the pod. We made our Wicked dreams come true, now we just need Miss “Moi” herself to join us. Then, we’ve partnered with the Personal Care Product Council to help keep you from buying fraudulent and potentially dangerous products this holiday season. We know it’s easy to want a good deal, but there are some real red flags to look out for. 

For the headlines portion of the show, we discuss a new Bloomberg article about MCO Beauty, the Australian beauty brand that’s made a name for itself by copying some of your favorite brands, from packaging design to inspired formulas. Kirbie changed her tune (kind of) after reading the story. And will we be getting better sunscreens in the U.S.? Possibly. We break down the FDA’s update to sunscreen requirements.

Today is a treat because we have founder and product developer Sarah Creal as our guest! You’ve heard us wax poetic about Sarah’s namesake brand, but in this episode you’ll get to learn how influential she truly is in the industry and how the products we use today are largely inspired by her creations. She explains the hardships that come with creating a brand focused on women 40+ and why she felt it was important to launch anyway, the five products she developed that are her holy grails (from Prescriptives to Tom Ford), how she got into the beauty industry with no experience, working with Victoria Beckham, “aging gracefully”, and what luxury means now in beauty.

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.

Today we’re joined by Dr. Ashley Brissette, MD, MSc, FRCSC—award-winning NYC ophthalmologist, cataract and refractive surgeon, dry-eye specialist, and team ophthalmologist for the New York Rangers—for a no-nonsense guide to modern eye health and your beauty routine.
