Kim van Haaster quite literally met a man in Ibiza and fell in love. Their happy ending resulted in Kim getting access to a bounty of family-owned tulip fields, which are the key ingredient in her skincare brand Bloomeffects. We join Kim at the incredible fields in Amsterdam for this week’s episode to explain why the tulip is so special, how the brand upcycles the flower for their products, the ingredients within them that helped calm her eczema (and get her off steroids), her family lineage in the beauty industry, and the short window she has to bring select editors and influencers — including us! — to The Netherlands each year. Plus, she shares details on the Black Tulip Regenerative Brightening Serum that 250 of our listeners tested for four weeks ahead of its launch last month and reveals two additional products you can expect from the brand in June.

Today we have a diva among us: Quinnifer Aniston joins her mom at work! We detail our experience with another diva, Ms. Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, then share a product 150 of our listeners have been testing through Gloss Angeles Confidential: SickScience’s jawline defining serum. We were skeptical, but the before and afters at the four week mark are incredible. There’s more tariff news, including a retailer who has stopped shipping to the US for the time being. Then we share why we think the outrage over the Boy Smells rebrand is counterproductive when the ethos of the brand truly hasn’t changed. Shop this episode Watch our episodes!CALL or TEXT US: 424-341-0426Instagram: @glossangelspod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.
