Gloss Angeles

We’re recapping our SEPHORiA weekend in LA—from a VIP dinner the night before with our favorite founders and Sephora execs to getting first access at the press preview before doors opened to the public. Of course, we have thoughts: from the (very good) VIP swag bags to the not-so-happy chatter around general admission sample-size gifting.We also break down exactly what we wore to the event, including Rare Beauty’s new True To Myself Natural Matte Longwear Foundation—a self-priming, self-setting formula we’ve been testing for months alongside the Glams through our partnership with Gloss Angeles Confidential. Plus, hear directly from Selena Gomez on why she wanted to create this formula (and why she even wore it to her wedding).Watch our episodes!Shop our episodesInstagram: @glossangelspod | TikTok: @glossangelespodEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Spencer Hedges, a self-taught Cuban-American makeup artist and global beauty creator known as Painted by Spencer, discusses his cinematic, high-production aesthetic and how his Cuban heritage shaped his maximalist beauty POV. He talks candidly about choosing a deep plane facelift, his experience with IVF and becoming a father, and how mental health informs his calm, intentional approach to content.

We’re recapping our very memorable night with L’Oréal Groupe at the Night Before the Oscars— where Kirbie met her future husband Jacob Elordi (it’s official), and Sara reunited with longtime boyfriend Michael B. Jordan and also met her new boo Hudson Williams. A big night for the group!!!Then, we get into the news: RetailBoss dropped the most-visited beauty sites (and somehow Scentbird made the list?!), Cardi B is entering the beauty space (as she should), and we’re unpacking the Gen Z pout — why everyone suddenly looks like they’re softly pouting at all times and how to achieve it if you dare.Watch our episodes!Shop our episodesInstagram: @glossangelspod | TikTok: @glossangelespodEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

This week, we’re joined by Emira D’Spain — model, influencer, television personality, and former beauty director at PAPER magazine — who has been breaking barriers across fashion, media, and entertainment. Emira made history as the first Black trans model to walk in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show and the first full-time trans cast member on Bravo, but before influencing, she was building a traditional editorial career after graduating magna cum laude from NYU. We talk about how she made the leap from beauty editor to full-time creator, how her editorial background shapes the way she approaches influencing, and what people don’t see behind the scenes of brand events and partnerships. Emira also spills a little influencer tea, shares the content that performs best for her today, and opens up about the biggest lessons she’s learned navigating social media, business, and beauty.Watch our episodes!Shop our episodesInstagram: @glossangelspod | TikTok: @glossangelespodEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

This week we’re joined by gastroenterologist and gut-brain researcher Dr. Trisha Pasricha, author of the upcoming book You’ve Been Pooping All Wrong. We talk about everything you’ve always wanted to know about your gut but were too embarrassed to ask: from fiber intake and her preferred supplements to “horrendous period poops,” GLP-1’s and your gut, and why stress can wreak havoc on digestion. Dr. Pasricha explains how the brain-gut connection shapes everything from bloating to anxiety and shares the daily habits that can help you reach what she calls “poophoria.” Plus, we answer listener questions about probiotics, digestive enzymes, gluten confusion, and the red flags women should never ignore when it comes to colorectal health.Watch our episodes!Shop our episodesInstagram: @glossangelspod | TikTok: @glossangelespodEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.
