Ep. 507: Goop for the Masses, Priscilla & The Week’s Beauty News

October 25, 2023 Fat Mascara

Has beauty culture come to a stand still? A recent New York Times article lamenting the current lack of cultural innovation got us thinking. We’re also chatting about the Goop line for Target; why red is trending (and Poppy King’s new lipstick); the genius of the Tampon Tax Back Coalition; how excited we are for Sofia Coppola’s Priscilla (and the adjacent Half Magic makeup set); and the potential downside of (supposedly) libido-boosting products for women. Plus, bargains from listeners and a sunscreen with ceramides.

The Everything Guide to Lasers with Dr. Robert Anolik

October 20, 2023 Fat Mascara

What’s the difference between lasers and LED (light emitting diodes), IPL (intense pulsed light), RF (radiofrequency) and all the other professional therapies and devices out there? In this interview (originally aired in 2019), dermatologist Robert Anolik, MD, explains it all: Which lasers (Q-Switched, Vbeam, Excel V, Fraxel, Clear + Brilliant) help with which skin concerns? What’s the difference between a drive-by “laser facial” and the treatment you’ll get in a doctor’s office? What’s the best laser for your money? How do you find a laser expert you trust? And is there anything you can do to improve certain skin issues if you can’t afford a laser treatment?

The Glossy Book Club with Marisa Meltzer

October 6, 2023 Fat Mascara

Listen in to our live-recorded podcast with Marisa Meltzer, the author of Glossy: Ambition, Beauty, and the Inside Story of Emily Weiss's Glossier. We treated this interview as a book club of sorts, and asked Marisa all of your (and our!) pressing questions. She discusses her interviews with Emily Weiss, the rise (and plateau?) of Glossier, her reporting process for the book, why the #GirlBoss era feels so cringey now, and—most importantly—who should play Emily Weiss when Marisa’s book gets optioned (hopefully!) for a movie. We hope you enjoy this fun and freewheeling conversation, including a special appearance from Marisa’s bulldog, Joan.

October 5, 2023 Fat Mascara

Love is not blind, according to a contestant on the new season of Love is Blind who had an issue with his (now ex-) fiancée’s makeup. His comments got us thinking about research that shows how makeup affects a person’s trustworthiness. We also chat about Jess’s vegan keratin treatment, under-eye patches as accessories, a new fragrance atelier in Paris, and grooming standards in the military. Plus, we have a special segment*—a live podcast recorded at Givaudan’s What Is Love? immersive experience, in which Givaudan’s perfumer Christine Hassan and its Head of Global Marketing Insight and Image for Fine Fragrance, Arnaud Guggenbuhl, talk about what love means to Gen Z.

Ep. 503: Lip Gloss Applicators, '90s Fragrances & The Week’s Beauty News

September 27, 2023 Fat Mascara

Do you like a doe foot, paddle (beaver tail?), or slant-tip as your lip gloss applicator? Let’s discuss. But first: Hourglass Cosmetics’s work with the Nonhuman Rights Project; the booming resale market for ’90s perfume; Rhode’s Juicy Tube-like launch strategy; the H&M X Raoúl Alejandre makeup collaboration; a very surprising workout hack involving Hermès lipstick; a watermelon shower gel fit for “the little king”; and some 2010s-era nonsense like planking and icing (aka, the Smirnoff Ice drinking game that Jenn incorrectly remembers as a Zima or Four Loko game).
