In episode thirty seven of the Glow Journal podcast, host Gemma Watts sits down with the founder of Bangn Body, Priscilla Hajiantoni.

Priscilla has one of those rare personality types that people are just drawn to. I first met Priscilla when I was hosting Meccaland last year and I was really instantly taken by her warmth, and I sincerely believe that, both content and product efficacy aside, Priscilla’s personality is largely to thank for her brand’s legion of followers. 

At the time of recording, Bangn Body is less than one year old but its results have gone, quite literally, viral. Priscilla originally launched the brand’s now-cult Yellow Tube of Goodness as a Firming Body Lotion, but curious consumers tried applying it to their face and, within a fortnight of launch, Priscilla had received hundreds of emails from customers who found that the lotion had cured their acne, rosacea, keratosis and dermatitis. Priscilla began sharing her customer’s un-retouched before and after photos via Bangn Body’s social media channels and, in May of last year, the then two month old brand was featured by The Daily Mail, most visited English-language news website in the world, which lead to Priscilla leading something of a makeshift production line in her living room. That momentum has not slowed, not even for a moment, with 2020 seeing Priscilla grow her team and move in to a brand new Bangn Body headquarters. 

In this episode, Priscilla shares her firm stance on airbrushing, how viral success does increase scepticism, and why a job that looks perfect on paper can never truly satisfy you unless you feel a little bit of magic.
