This week’s GlowJob News Roundup covers the biggest shifts in the beauty industry — from collapsing legacy brands to luxury expansion and AI disrupting relationships.

Drunk Elephant is facing a 65% sales decline under Shiseido after the Sephora kids controversy damaged its brand perception. The once-viral skincare brand has wiped its Instagram and is attempting a reset — but can Drunk Elephant recover?

Glossier has laid off one-third of its workforce, raising serious questions about whether the DTC beauty model is over. Is Sephora now essential for survival?

We also break down:

  • Cardi B launching Grow Good Beauty and the surge of celebrity haircare brands
  • Hermès officially entering the luxury skincare market
  • Estee Lauder suing Walmart over counterfeit beauty products
  • Ron Lauder being named 900+ times in newly released Epstein files
  • Casey Wasserman stepping back amid Epstein-related fallout
  • The rise of AI dating cafés in New York City
  • OpenAI controversy over adding romantic AI companion features to ChatGPT
  • Sol de Janeiro’s Ulta-exclusive fragrance launch and Gen Z strategy
  • From celebrity beauty brands to luxury skincare expansion, from counterfeit marketplaces to AI girlfriend apps, this episode explores how beauty, business, and technology are colliding in 2026.

    Beauty is business. Business is power. And power always leaves a paper trail.
