Gloss Angeles

Is full glam making a comeback, or do we just want a really dramatic lash? We dig into Pinterest’s beauty report, from frosted makeup and grunge eyeliner to increasingly specific manicures—and why everything sounds like something we’d order for dessert. Then, we discuss attendee complaints about Create & Cultivate and Beautycon: What should your ticket actually get you, and are conferences still worth the money? Plus, Sara makes her case for Kirbie to watch Felicity, the college drama that deserves a spot in your fall viewing lineup. Glamgelenos, who’s joining us for a rewatch—or watching for the first time?

Feel like your hair hits a certain length and just… quits? Board-certified dermatologist and Nutrafol Chief Medical Advisor Dr. Heather Woolery-Lloyd joins us to explain the difference between thinning, shedding, and breakage—and why identifying what’s happening matters. We discuss how stress, hormones, perimenopause, menopause, and GLP-1 medications can factor into hair changes, plus how heat styling, color, and hair porosity affect length retention. We also explore Nutrafol’s Strand Serum, how caring for your strands differs from supporting growth, and the habits worth reconsidering for healthier-looking hair. This episode is sponsored by Nutrafol.

*Strand Serum is a clinically tested, physician-formulated serum designed to deliver:
• 83 percent reduction in breakage after 5 uses on damp and dry hair vs. non-conditioning shampoo
• 85 percent reduction in frizz after using on damp hair vs. maximum frizz
• 6x stronger hair when using Nutrafol SH/CD/Strand Serum on damp hair vs. non-conditioning shampoo

What does it take to make a celebrity beauty brand work—and what happens when its founder wants to stay out of the content world? With Scarlett Johansson’s skincare brand The Outset winding down, we discuss the warning signs, the limits of star power, and why launching a brand and building one are two very different jobs. We’re also sharing our current obsessions, from a $25 cushion foundation to a $45 curling iron.

Your face has a skincare routine, but your neck is crying for help! This week, we’re joined by Murad esthetician and global educator Katy Bacon to talk about the skin we tend to forget: our necks, chests, and hands. We ask why these areas can start to look different, how hormonal changes and sun exposure factor into the conversation, and whether a dedicated neck serum deserves a spot in your routine. We also get into silicone patches, peptides, supplement claims, and what topical skincare can realistically improve. Plus, Kirbie brings her ongoing battle with the “retinol uglies” to Katy, who explains why a higher percentage doesn’t tell you everything about a formula.
Murad partnered with our program, Gloss Angeles Confidential, to give 300 listeners ages 35+ the opportunity to test its Retinol ReSculpt Neck & Décolleté Lifting Serum. Hear about our experience and check out listener reviews on Murad’s website.

Skincare expert and Skin Rocks founder Caroline Hirons joins us to cut through the industry’s biggest claims, buzziest ingredients, and what to expect in her upcoming book. She ranks PDRN, exosomes, collagen, and peptides by how convincing the evidence actually is, explains where to spend your skincare budget—whether you have $100 or $500—and reveals the pricey product category she’d never pay for. Plus, Caroline weighs in on eye creams, using acids with retinoids on mature skin, the YISE/Jones Road name drama, and why seemingly every beauty brand launched the same eye patches at once. Plus, she shares more about her upcoming book, Skin Rules.
