Creating a Clean Beauty Brand With Ilia Founder Sasha Plavsic
Sasha Plavsic is the founder of ILIA Beauty, a prestige line of natural and organic beauty products that combine superior color performance and nourishing organics based in Laguna Beach. Before Sasha started the company, she had years of branding experience helping beauty and wellness companies, including Urban Decay and Saje Natural Wellness. So when she discovered that there wasn’t any existing clean beauty products that were not packaged in bamboo, she found herself with a goal in mind (and the experience to back it up): create a tinted lip balm that was luxurious and didn’t contain any nasty ingredients. Fast forward to today and ILIA is one of the leading clean color cosmetics brands out on the market. We’re talking to Sasha about starting her brand as well as Ilia’s latest launch: the Super Serum Skin Tint.--Follow us on Instagram: instagram.com/GlossAngelesPodShop all of our product lists: http://www.shopstyle.com/shop/GlossAngelesShop Kirbie’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/Kirbie-JohnsonShop Sara’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/saratanWatch our episodes!Shop our episodesInstagram: @glossangelspod | TikTok: @glossangelespodEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

How Tatcha's Vicky Tsai Healed Her Dermatitis With Japanese Skin Care
Vicky Tsai, founder and “Chief Treasure Hunter” of Tatcha, one of the most beloved skin care brands of the last decade and one of our favorites here at Gloss Angeles. After graduating from business school and working for large corporations, Vicky spent years traveling back and forth from the states to Asia. She developed acute dermatitis and tried everything to treat her skin. During her time in Japan, Vicky discovered the world of Japanese beauty, thanks to an encounter with a modern-day geisha. She loved how pure, simple, and effective the classical Japanese beauty philosophy was and decided she wanted to share the secrets and ingredients she learned about with the rest of the world. Today, Tatcha works with scientists in both Japan and the U.S. to create formulations from scratch that honor traditional Japanese beauty practices, but are made with advanced technology and innovation.Vicky also discusses Tatcha's new Serum Stick and what makes this new launch so special. ---Follow us on Instagram: instagram.com/Gloss_AngelesShop all of our product lists: http://www.shopstyle.com/shop/GlossAngelesShop Kirbie’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/Kirbie-JohnsonShop Sara’s stash: https://www.shopstyle.com/shop/saratanGloss Angeles is co-hosted by Kirbie Johnson and Sara Tan.
