Breaking Beauty Podcast

By popular demand, this week we’re sounding off on the beauty “innovations,” brands and over-hyped products that – in our humble opinions – just aren’t it. (Pssst!

In this episode, you’ll hear about: The celeb-fluencer brand we’re ditching from our topshelf this year Why you won’t catch us talking about MLM’s, ever The reason you might want to think twice about buying that viral, “do-gooder” mascara Why we’re not buying into grey hair miracle pills Skin tints: marketing or must-have? Is a glow-up in store for one of beauty’s most iconic brands?? For products we *do* recommend, check out our Haul of Fame and our Amazon Storefronts: USA storefront; Canada Storefront.

In 2020, Hyram Yarbro earned upwards of 6 million TikTok followers in just four months. His brutally honest brand reviews, skin transformation reaction videos and budget skincare recommendations earned him the title of “The Gen-Z Whisperer” by The New York Times. Two years later, and Skincare By Hyram is back to chat about the lessons he’s learned as he’s shifted from content creator to brand founder – and where the beauty influencer economy is going next. In today’s episode you’ll find out: How he reflects on those “brutally honest product reviews” now. What he’d do differently if he were to go back and recreate his skincare line today. Whether some viral TikTok product recommendations are legit – or paid for. His real thoughts on “jelly skin.” What is “vabbing”? The fragrance trend you’ll wish you never heard of. Which budget skincare brand he believes will pop off just in time for back-to-school (hint: we never heard of it.) The skincare serum that he and Hailey Bieber bonded over. The #1 practice he’s adopted to help survive burnout. Where the future of social media is going – beyond TikTok. Plus, tune into Hyram’s podcast Justaposition, *tomorrow*, where we’ll be the featured guests! We get candid about what it’s like to work on our own podcast versus our Devil Wears Prada days working at fashion magazines, how we deal with negative reviews along with our latest favorite beauty products that may or may not include a foot foam for unsightly heel cracks (did we mention we’re getting real real?!)

When was the first time you realized that you need to wear SPF not just during the summer, but every damn day of the year? For elementary school teacher Holly Thaggard, it was a lightbulb moment that occurred after a close friend was struck with skin cancer in 2005, and the start of an entrepreneurial career that would lead to her lifelong dedication to suncare advocacy in schools – and the birth of Supergoop!, now a staple in many a glowy girl’s skincare routine. In today’s episode, you’ll find out how the industry’s biggest sunscreen darling changed the game completely, introducing the idea of a “sunscreen wardrobe” that now offers over 40 different ways to apply every single day (PS - three units of Supergoop!’s iconic Unseen Sunscreen now sell every single minute). You’ll hear why turning down Sephora was the key to becoming one of their best-sellers. Plus, Holly gives us an easy-to-understand explainer on everything you want to know about sunscreen now, like: What’s behind the rise in combination sunscreens that combine both chemical and mineral filters What a PA+ rating means on a label and why it’s important Whether your car window is actually protecting you from UV rays The fastest-growing area of the body where doctors are spotting skin cancer amongst women today How to negotiate the vitamin D vs sunscreen debate in real life Why you still need to reapply sunscreen every 2 hours, no matter how high the SPF factor is Her personal SPF layering technique – including how to reapply over makeup throughout the day Get social with us and let us know what you think of the episode!

It’s a #DamnGood, spring skin care special! First, we break down Glow Recipe’s highly-anticipated, first ever sunscreen (and point out a striking similarity to a Rihanna fave.) Then, we unpack Curél’s affordable, ceramide-packed moisturizing spray that sold out within days of landing on Amazon in North America. And, are you here for the “beauty snacking” trend? (It’s not what you think!) Stay tuned to the end for our under $15 finds, including a pH-balancing drugstore cleanser and a serum-drenched sheet mask that soothed Jill’s SOS flare-up. But first, we’ve got Earth Month news! We’re talking about the MAJOR sustainability initiative that goes beyond lip service – a group effort by industry giants that’s aiming to universally ‘score’ a beauty product’s ecological footprint, set to launch by the end of this year. Our new, zero-waste shower staples, RIP Deciem’s cult-fave Chemistry Hand Cream – it’s all in today’s buffet episode of everything you need to know in beauty this month.

Clayton Hawkins is the wig-wearing, vintage hot tool-collecting hairstylist to Olivia Rodrigo, Dove Cameron and Emily in Paris’ Ashley Park. Today, we’re diving deep into his tickle trunk, as Clayton decodes the hottest hair trends of 2022, so far. The “shullett,” bottleneck bangs, Y2K baby braids – we’re covering it all, honey. We find out the exact products in the Hollywood hairstylist’s hair kit, from the essential brushes to the $6 dry shampoo and the hot tools – 70s, 90s and new – that he thinks are definitely worth the investment. But first, we discuss the recent Olaplex headlines that prompted some TikTok users to start binning their hair holy grails. Do they really cause infertility? Jill’s not throwing away her bottle yet, guys! We reached out to the brand for their official statement. (To understand the science behind the study that led to banning of the ingredient in the EU and why testing on rats is different from testing on humans, we recommend watching Dr. Michelle Wong aka @labmuffinbeautyscience's breakdown of this topic.)

Between her unmistakable Massachusetts accent and her next-level looks, TikTok makeup artist Mikayla Nogueira has earned 10.4 million followers in just 2 years. In today’s episode, Mikayla reflects on her epic metamorphosis, from apprenticing as a special FX makeup artist at her father’s haunted house, to her very first viral TikTok video where, scarred from bullies, she hid her iconic accent before learning to embrace her true self. And since Mikayla is the powerful makeup artist single-handedly making all of those beauty products go viral on TikTok, we find out which Holy Grail items she uses everyday, from her fave indie eyeshadows to her ride-or-die mascara and the front-running longwear foundation she’s testing for her upcoming wedding. Plus, we discover which #1 product turned around her cystic/hormonal acne forever, and we hear about the over-hyped complexion product that failed the Mikayla test. BONUS: For the first time ever, we have exclusive content available only on TikTok! Follow us on TikTok for a hilarious beauty vocabulary lesson with Mikayla!
