How Much Are You Willing to Spend on Sunscreen?

Our resident mother, Sara, is back! She'll be joining the pod for Tuesday episodes and will soon be back full-time. Upon her return, she shares what she's been up to, has a little cry, and then shares her take on the Barbie, er, Ken discourse. (If you're anti-Barbie and therefore anti-fun, skip to 14:30 to get into the beauty conversation.) Then we make an announcement about WOYF before diving into several new sunscreen launches. We want to know: given how much SPF you're supposed to apply on daily basis, how much are you willing to spend on a sunscreen? Call or text the hotline or send us an email to share your favorite sunscreens and what you spend on them. Then it's time for beauty news: both The Sims and Crayola employed beauty industry veterans to diversify their offerings, Amazon will begin to warn buyers of frequently returned items, and Aesop was bought for $2.5B, which begs the question: how familiar are you with the brand?Shop this episodeGlossAngelesPod.comhttps://linktr.ee/glossangelespodCALL or TEXT US: 424-341-0426Email: glossangelespodcast@gmail.comShop products from our episodesJoin our FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/glossangelespodcastInstagram: @glossangelspod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanWatch our episodes!Shop our episodesInstagram: @glossangelspod | TikTok: @glossangelespodEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.
