Ep. 546: Bangs, Soft Baddies & The Week’s Beauty News04 Sep 202400:48:46

Let’s dig into some fall beauty trends, like bow nails, soft baddie and Igari makeup, “fox” hair color—and whether or not Jess should get bangs. Plus: lookism in the news, the couple who pioneered cosmetic Botox, bridal beauty, rediscovering Pillow Talk, and a lip gloss that tastes like Haribo peach gummies. And, in a special segment brought to you by Acast Creative and our sponsor Shiseido Ginza Tokyo, we talk about all the ways eyes change as you age (Jenn’s eyes are getting “cozier,” Jess says her under-eyes are more “chiseled”) and what you can do about it.

The Red Carpet Look with Makeup Artist Kate Lee15 Sep 202300:41:56

Celebrities should be grateful that makeup artist Kate Lee did not listen to the school counselor who told her to become an optician. Instead, she enrolled in aesthetician school, started doing editorial and backstage makeup, and then began working with Kate Winslet when the actress was just “a wee child.” Today, the CHANEL makeup artist works regularly with clients such as Keira Knightley, Charlize Theron, and Nicola Peltz Beckham. Listen in as she shares her story, her CHANEL must-haves, and the candle shops she’s obsessed with.

Back-to-School Beauty & Trend Forecasting with Gen Z Expert Casey Lewis 08 Sep 202300:52:18

Casey Lewis, author of After School, a Substack newsletter about youth culture and Gen Z trends, has made a career of talking to (and about) teens and young adults. She’s here to explain why those ridiculously named beauty trends (pumpkin-spice makeup anyone?) go viral and the larger cultural implications of micro-trends; which brands and products everyone wants this back-to-school season; the speed of today’s trend cycle; how teen media has evolved in the past 20 years; the draw of nostalgia—and the beauty products she’s personally obsessed with.

After that, it’s time to welcome a very special guest (hint: Buckle Up!) to celebrate our milestone episode. Plus, we’ll Raise A Wand and give you some important homework: Tell us about the perfumes you wear when you want to feel more attractive—to others, to yourself, to the universe…whatever that means to you!

Best of FM: Philosopher Heather Widdows01 Sep 202300:52:57

Lookism, or looks-based discrimination, doesn’t get society’s attention like sexism and racism, but philosopher Heather Widdows thinks it should. In one of our favorite interviews (originally aired in 2021, presented here with a new September 2023 intro), she explains the ethics of beauty and why beauty companies use moral language (“Be your best self!”) to sell products. This episode will make you rethink the way you talk about (and judge) other people's looks—and reconsider the way you respond when others comment on your appearance.

Legendary Hairstylist Garren Shares His Story30 Aug 202300:54:50
Hairstylist Garren transformed models into supermodels (Linda Evangelista, Karlie Kloss), helped celebrities like Victoria Beckham and Madonna create their looks, and co-founded the hair line R+Co during his long and legendary career. In this interview, he tells us everything: the guidance counselor who told him he wasn’t allowed to do hair; the photographers he collaborated with (Irving Penn! Richard Avedon!); and all the things he’s learned about people—and their hair—along the way. This interview originally aired in 2019, but we’re presenting it with a new intro.

The Wild World of Public Relations with Miss PR Piggy18 Aug 202300:38:39

Glamorous? Sometimes. Hilarious? Always. For the first time, Carrie Crecca Maitoza steps out from behind her buzzy meme account, @Miss_PR_Piggy, to talk about the PR world she satirizes. If you work in fashion or beauty (or want to know what goes on behind the scenes), this insider episode helps make sense of the notoriously hierarchical industry where every client wants a placement in the New York Times, every editor wants free clothes, and publicists hardly ever get credit for their efforts.

The Myth of Oxidizing Makeup with Chemist Balanda Atis16 Aug 202300:37:48

Jenn’s off to climb a mountain (she’ll explain in the intro), but we still have a great interview for you: Chemist Balanda Atis, whose pioneering research helped make foundation more inclusive for all skin tones. Balanda is currently the assistant vice president of scientific communications for L’Oréal Paris, and in this interview (originally aired in 2019) she shares industry secrets, like why chemists use blue pigment to expand foundation shade ranges, the story behind her patent for fiber mascara, and the reason makeup looks different in the package than it does on your face (it’s NOT oxidation!).

Best of FM: Miranda Kerr11 Aug 202300:42:29

We’ve got a new intro and some behind-the-scenes commentary for this classic interview with Miranda Kerr. The model, mom, and “magic girl” sits down to talk about self-love, smart business, and Kora Organics, the skincare line she founded in 2009—way before every other model and actress got into the beauty game. There will be crystals. There will be noni fruit. And we will be getting choked up as Miranda shares some wisdom on the grieving process that we needed to hear.

Best of FM: Emily Weiss of Glossier09 Aug 202300:38:20

Before she stepped down as CEO, before she was a mom, and before she led Glossier through three more rounds of funding and a $1.2 billion valuation, Emily Weiss came to the Fat Mascara studio to talk about a gray logo sweatshirt and her plans for world domination. In this refreshing interview (originally recorded in 2017), she opens up in a way we haven’t seen in a long time, talking about her favorite mascara (perhaps the one that inspired Glossier Lash Slick, which launched in 2018?); the Arm & Hammer deodorant she buys in bulk; and what it was like to turn a scrappy blog into a beauty behemoth. We’re publishing this now, as a “Best of FM” interview, so you can listen before our upcoming interview with Marisa Meltzer, author of the forthcoming Glossier exposé, Glossy: Ambition, Beauty, and the Inside Story of Emily Weiss's Glossier.

The L.A. Face with Plastic Surgeon Dr. Jason Diamond04 Aug 202300:56:36
When did plastic surgery get so trendy? Dr. Jason Diamond, who has been practicing in Beverly Hills for years, is here to discuss it all: the rise of the ethnically ambiguous face; doctors live-streaming their surgeries; the code names he gives his VIP patients; the procedures he won’t perform (hint: thread lifts); and why he’s a fan of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. Plus, we try to get him to spill how he developed a serum with bio-identical growth factors that mimics the effects of his famous Diamond InstaFacial and the work he does for celebrity patients like Chrissy Teigen, Kim and Kourtney Kardashian, Lala Kent, and Kate Upton.

Ep. 499: Lip Lifts, Real Housewives, Ageism & The Week’s Beauty News02 Aug 202300:35:42

We get emotional at the end of the episode, thinking about how much our listeners mean to us! But first, how do we balance the contrasting pull of wanting to look youthful while fighting ageism? That theme kept coming up as we discussed RHONY; Dr. Jenn injecting filler; the Barbie scene with the elderly woman; Manchester United’s partnership with Estée Lauder; the TikTok aging filter; Prada hiring an e-makeup artist (@ines.alpha) for its new beauty line; the bullhorn lip lift; a new growth factor serum; and a magical nail polish brand that helps at-risk cats find new homes.

Youthful Skin *Without* Injections with Aesthetician Joanna Czech28 Jul 202300:46:49

The original celebrity aesthetician has a prescription for better skin that doesn’t require Botox, filler, or lasers: Balance your pH; lean into muscle-stimulating and collagen-boosting therapies (microcurrent, LED); hydrate; and treat your hyperpigmentation. She explains how to do it—and which products to use—in this interview. Plus, she tells us why she helped create Kim Kardashian’s skincare line; shares the backstory of her own line, Joanna Czech Skincare; teaches us to apply products as if our skin were a sponge (“press and release!”); and explains how she went from aspiring doctor in Poland to one of New York City’s premier aestheticians.

We tried a perfume that evokes a horseback ride through the fields and another that smells like the spice-laden cargo hold of a 17th-century galleon. Perfume storytelling has gotten so extra—and we are here for it! After that: Are water filters and other “passive skincare” devices worth the money? Plus, tanning beds make a comeback (!?); the secret ingredient in Beyoncé’s new perfume; a questionable makeup filter for Microsoft Teams; and our final roundup of the best self-tanners.

Best of FM: Cindy Crawford24 Jul 202300:47:30

Before we ever interviewed Cindy Crawford, we talked about her on the pod. A lot. You’ve heard us go on about her Meaningful Beauty infomercials and how she made us believe a French melon patch was the secret to he beauty. Well, now she’s in the FM studio to tell us the truth about the melons, and more: how aging has made her a more self-conscious model; how she’s dealt with thinning hair; what it’s like to watch her daughter, Kaia Gerber, on the runways; and some of her favorite products.

After some deep thoughts on the art-versus-commerce of interviewing celebrities who have skincare lines, we get into the good stuff: a lipstick with a compostable tube that turns into dirt and @wheelchairbarbie’s makeup collaboration. And also the scary stuff: Afghan beauty salons are closing; a plastic surgeon lost her license after live-streaming surgeries; Elon Musk’s “burnt hair” perfume is here. And, finally, the glowy stuff: how to self-tan your face without washing off the color; a radiant SPF 30 skin tint; and the secret to the sexy skin in Troye Sivan’s “Rush” music video.

The Return of Poppy King, Entrepreneur and “Lipstick Queen”14 Jul 202300:45:49
Poppy King has nothing left to prove. She has created two successful beauty lines, ridden the corporate wave, and done it all with her integrity intact. She's one of the few beauty entrepreneurs with the courage to sit out trends that don't feel right (like founder-as-social-media-star) and speak up on industry issues that feel misguided (the endless obsession with growth at all costs). In this interview, she and Jess talk values-driven success; “humble” brands she loves; why she stepped away from her line, Lipstick Queen; and what she’s doing next.

Let’s work through our feelings together:) Plus, Jess has a new game for Jenn that involves vintage shopping online. Canada bans testing cosmetics on animals and we explain where (and why) animal testing is still allowed. And we discuss the Glossier sorta-tell-all book, Alexander McQueen candles, Kering’s acquisition of the perfume label Creed, and a skin-tightening, snatch-inducing serum that’s “like a bra for your face” (but chicer).

Why do some actors look out of place in period films and TV series? Dazed Beauty writer Kleigh Balugo calls it “smartphone face”—that thing where people look too modern to have lived before the 21st century.

Let’s discuss! Then, we’re talking about how weight-loss drugs affect your hair; Oprah’s skincare investment; beauty tourism in Turkey (Türkiye); and health concerns related to hair relaxers. Plus, another body scrub that’s a bargain (aka, a “tight price point”), a multitasking tinted pencil for ages 19 to 99, and a makeup bag that doesn’t get gross.
