How Dianna Cohen Built Crown Affair Into a Sephora Haircare Favorite With a Dry Shampoo

This week, we’re joined by beauty industry disruptor and Trinny London founder Trinny Woodall. After two decades on television, Trinny launched her namesake beauty brand at 53 with a mission to help women—especially those 40+—feel confident, radiant, and seen. We talk about why she believes “anti-aging” is the wrong conversation entirely, how beauty needs evolve as we age, and what inspired her to create a brand specifically designed for women who have long felt overlooked by the industry. Trinny also opens up about tweakment transparency, the data-driven technology behind Match2Me, and why she believes confidence, energy, and joy are the real secrets to looking good at any age.Watch our episodes!Shop our episodesInstagram: @glossangelspod | TikTok: @glossangelespodEmail: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

This week, Sara surprises Kirbie with the ultimate LA luxury: a VIP valet parking card for Westfield Century City — because nothing says we’ve made it like avoiding the Century City parking structure. Then, we dive into the rise of “zombie filler,” aka injectable volume treatments made from donated cadaver fat, and unpack why clinics are suddenly obsessed with it, who’s getting it (from faces to BBLs), and the ethical and medical concerns experts are already raising. Could this be the future of aesthetics or is the beauty industry moving wayyyy too fast? Plus, we discuss Olivia Jade’s new beauty brand O.Piccola, why a single bronzer-highlight stick might actually make sense for her brand, and whether consumers are ready to separate the founder from the scandal that made her famous.Watch our episodes!Shop our episodesInstagram: @glossangelspod | TikTok: @glossangelespodEmail: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

Today we’re joined by celebrity makeup artist Jenna Nicole, known for creating her signature soft glam on clients like Selena Gomez and Brenda Song.

We also talk about what defines the new generation of celebrity makeup artists, the products she always keeps in her kit, and how she creates perfected, high-definition complexion that still looks modern and natural.

This week, we’re getting into everything we’ve been doing in the name of beauty—treatments, tweaks, and… stem cells?!Sara kicks things off with a full rundown of her recent visit to the new Things We Do location in West Hollywood, where she tried Sculptra, Skinvive, and PRFM (platelet-rich fibrin matrix). What is PRFM, how is it different from PRP, and why is everyone talking about it right now? Then, Kirbie shares her experience with a next-gen peel from Australian brand UltraCeuticals that she’s eager to see the results of.And finally: we both took things to the next level with Acorn Bio Labs at Facile—yes, we did stem cell retrieval. We’re breaking down what it is, why we did it, and what this could mean for the future of beauty (more to come here…).In news, we’re talking about Susan Yara’s new-ish brand launch: Playa.

We’re joined by Deepica Mutyala, the creator-turned-founder who built Live Tinted into one of the most culturally impactful brands at Ulta Beauty. We get into her founder routine, the early audience insights that gave her an edge before “creator-founder” was even a term, and why nailing the complexion category is so important to her. We also talk hero products (is it Huestick or Hueguard?), unexpected hits and misses, and what it really takes to stand out on shelves at Ulta. Plus, Deepica shares her honest take on whether beauty has actually become more inclusive or just better at marketing it—and how she keeps Live Tinted grounded in its mission as it scales.Watch our episodes!Shop our episodesInstagram: @glossangelspod | TikTok: @glossangelespodEmail: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

This week, we’re diving into the latest beauty news — starting with the growing epidemic of over-the-top brand mailers, from performers showing up at your door to giant, impossible-to-ignore deliveries (very The Devil Wears Prada). Then, it’s time for “Misscontinued,” where we mourn the products that still live rent-free in our heads — especially Marc Jacobs Beauty’s Velvet Noir mascara, Omega Bronze, and those iconic magnetic lipsticks — which leads us to a major update: Marc Jacobs Beauty is officially returning in June 2026!!! We also get into a quick update on Pat McGrath and what’s next for the legendary artist and her brand.Watch our episodes!Shop our episodesInstagram: @glossangelspod | TikTok: @glossangelespodEmail: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

This week, we’re joined by Nour Tayara, founder of AORA and a beauty industry veteran on a mission to make beauty plastic-free. After nearly two decades at L’Oréal, Nour pulls back the curtain on what he learned about waste, overconsumption, and the myths we’ve been sold about “luxury” packaging. We get into how AORA is rethinking sustainability from the ground up, why Mexico is central to the brand’s story (and how to do that respectfully), plus the real data behind building a purpose-driven beauty brand. Watch our episodes!Shop our episodesInstagram: @glossangelspod | TikTok: @glossangelespodEmail: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.
