News Roundup: Is the "Clean Girl" Trend Over? Embarrassing Boyfriend and New Brands Nov 24, 2025

Show notes

In this week’s GlowJob news roundup, Julia & Sasa break down the beauty, business, and culture stories dominating your feeds. They kick things off with Black Friday fatigue and ask whether the clean girl aesthetic is officially dead — a debate reignited by Mikayla Nogueira and her comments in a recent Business of Fashion article.

They move into founder comebacks, analyzing Carisa Janes’ new line Outside In and Annie Kreighbaum’s Kraum, unpacking the strategy, aesthetic shifts, and what these launches reveal about the state of prestige beauty today.

Then they zoom out to global moves from the major conglomerates — including Estée Lauder’s investment in Mexican fragrance brand Xinú and L’Oréal’s expanding portfolio of Chinese beauty brands — and what it signals for the next wave of C-Beauty, Latin American innovation, and growth beyond the oversaturated U.S. market.

To close, they dig into the viral British Vogue piece “Is Having a Boyfriend Embarrassing?” and The Economist’s deep dive into the relationship recession. Equal parts beauty intel and cultural anthropology, this episode gives listeners a smarter, sharper take you won’t get anywhere else.

Lynn also shares her journey from P&G and Silicon Valley to launching SkinSpirit, and how aesthetics completely transformed her confidence after divorce.

News Roundup: Shay Mitchell’s Rini, Dua Lipa x Bader, $1 Trillion Elon Pay Nov 17, 2025

Show notes

This week’s GlowJob News Roundup is pure chaos in the best way — celebrity scandals, billion-dollar power moves, and beauty industry BS getting exposed left and right.

Sasa and Julia kick things off with Shay Mitchell’s Rini kids skincare fiasco — toddler sheet masks, K-Beauty name-dropping, chemical fear-mongering, and why parents are getting played. Next, they tear into Dua Lipa’s surprise skincare line powered by Augustinus Bader, breaking down the price-per-ounce math that completely blows up Bader’s luxury mystique.

Then it gets even bigger: Kimberly Clark’s $48.7B takeover of Kenview (Neutrogena, Tylenol, Aveeno). The duo explains how misinformation, lawsuits, and shifting consumer behavior triggered one of the biggest beauty-adjacent deals in history — and why it affects literally every household in America.

Also in the mix:
• Kim Kardashian not passing the California bar (and the internet meltdown that followed)
• The “so bad it’s good” disaster of All’s Fair
• Tesla shareholders approving a possible $1 trillion payday for Elon Musk
• Coty’s earnings: fragrance domination, Kylie Cosmetics stagnation, and the looming loss of the Gucci license

If you love beauty, business, and a strong BS radar, this episode is your perfect entry point. It’s fast, fun, and packed with the industry intel people pretend they already know.

The Skinny Revolution: Ozempic, Biohacking, and the Death of Body Positivity Nov 06, 2025

Show notes

Ozempic isn’t just a weight-loss drug — it’s reshaping beauty, culture, and the entire aesthetics industry. In this episode of GlowJob, Julia & Sasa break down how GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound went from diabetes treatments to Hollywood’s worst-kept secret. They dive into why “thin is back,” what Ozempic face actually is, how GLP-1s accelerate sagging & collagen loss, and why dermatologists and plastic surgeons are quietly celebrating. They also expose how telehealth brands (Hims & Hers and Ro) are handing out GLP-1 prescriptions like candy, why celebrities suddenly dropped 20 lbs overnight, and how the beauty industry is gearing up to profit — from fillers to facelifts to collagen stimulators. If you want to understand the future of body trends, biohacking culture, and why ‘sexy is back,’ this is your episode.
