  • Is the TirTir Cushion Compact Worth It? Plus Other Viral Amazon Beauty Products
    Sep 20 2024

    It’s an Amazon surprise! We kick off the episode by reviewing some of the most viral Amazon beauty finds including the buzzy TirTir cushion foundation and a collagen sheet mask that’s supposed to transform your skin overnight. Sabrina Carpenter and her hair have officially been spoken for — we discuss the major haircare brand that’s secured the “Taste” singer as their ambassador. And lastly — why isn’t anyone talking about MAC? That’s the question Joolz Lebron is asking, but is she right? Kirbie and Sara share their thoughts on the legacy makeup brand and why they think people may not be talking about them as much as other brands.

  • How Caliray Keeps the Original "Essence" of Urban Decay Alive with Founder Wende Zomnir
    Sep 13 2024

    Wende Zomnir is someone we consider a beauty titan on Gloss Angeles: she co-founded the longstanding cosmetics brand Urban Decay in the '90s, and after selling to L'Oreal and leaving the brand herself, she launched another one: inspired by her passion for the beach, surfing and sustainability, Caliray was born,

    Wende has a wealth of knowledge about the industry, so we're thrilled to have her on the pod. She shares how Urban Decay was born at a time where brands weren't a dime a dozen, her thoughts on the Naked palette resurrection, what Urban was doing before any other makeup brand, and what she thinks matters most to consumers when it comes to products. Plus, how she keeps the "dirty minds" alive with Caliray and how her second brand differs from her first. She also reveals the product she'd like to see revived in our Misscontinued segment.

  • Why Did Givenchy Really Re-formulate Their Powder? Here’s What We Know
    Sep 5 2024

    Are you even a beauty brand in 2024 if you haven’t launched a powder? That’s how it seems lately when you walk into any Sephora or Ulta. However, this explosion of new powders may be the reason why one beloved product has suddenly changed its formula. The powder in question? Givenchy’s Prisme Libre. Kirbie and Sara test the OG version versus the new one to see how it’s changed. But fear not, they also tested two popular formulas that have old Prisme Libre fans breathing a sigh of relief. Speaking of Sephora, Kirbie treated Sara to a “Sephora Surprise” (new segment?!). It involves a lot of Prada à la our girl Sabrina Carpenter. #Taste. We're also sharing a newly launched hair rinse that has our strand shiny as hell. Tune in now!

    Thank you to Oribe for partnering with us on a segment in this episode.

  • What Actually Happens During a Turkish Hair Transplant
    Aug 16 2024

    If you've been on TikTok, you've likely seen many videos of people traveling from all over the world to Turkey to participate in their abundance of medical tourism. Kirbie and Sara recently discovered several people they knew — men, in particular — had traveled overseas to get a hair transplant, and they knew it had to be discussed on the pod. Joining as today's guest is Cuit Gonzalez, who traveled last December to Turkey to get his own. What did it cost? How did the screening process go? What does a hair transplant entail in 2024? Did it hurt? And what made him feel comfortable traveling abroad, alone, after only speaking with doctors online? Cuit goes into all the details in today's ep.
