Gloss Angeles

This week, we’re joined by Spencer Hedges — aka Painted by Spencer — the self-taught Cuban-American makeup artist turned global beauty creator known for his incredible before-and-afters and beautiful, cinematic content. Spencer shares how he went from moving to LA at 16 to building a multi-platform empire. We talk about high-production content in a lo-fi era, the influence of his Cuban heritage, and what he’s learned from teaching masterclasses around the world. Spencer also opens up about becoming a father through IVF, getting candid about his mental health, and yes… a recent “refresh.” Plus, we end with rapid-fire takes on makeup musts and misses.

We’re recapping our very memorable night with L’Oréal Groupe at the Night Before the Oscars— where Kirbie met her future husband Jacob Elordi (it’s official), and Sara reunited with longtime boyfriend Michael B. Jordan and also met her new boo Hudson Williams. A big night for the group!!!

Then, we get into the news: RetailBoss dropped the most-visited beauty sites (and somehow Scentbird made the list?!), Cardi B is entering the beauty space (as she should), and we’re unpacking the Gen Z pout — why everyone suddenly looks like they’re softly pouting at all times and how to achieve it if you dare.

Kirbie shares the beauty tool she’s excited to try, then Sara breaks down Wirecutter’s investigation into fake beauty products — including how easy it is to buy counterfeit makeup and skincare, how to spot dupes vs. fakes, and the potential safety risks for consumers.
Plus, we dive into the growing trend of beauty-themed kids’ parties and bat mitzvahs, from Rhode-inspired events to LoveShackFancy aesthetics — and why classic themes like Paris and Hollywood are being replaced.

This week, we’re joined by Emira D’Spain — model, influencer, television personality, and former beauty director at PAPER magazine — who has been breaking barriers across fashion, media, and entertainment. Emira made history as the first Black trans model to walk in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show and the first full-time trans cast member on Bravo, but before influencing, she was building a traditional editorial career after graduating magna cum laude from NYU. We talk about how she made the leap from beauty editor to full-time creator, how her editorial background shapes the way she approaches influencing, and what people don’t see behind the scenes of brand events and partnerships. Emira also spills a little influencer tea, shares the content that performs best for her today, and opens up about the biggest lessons she’s learned navigating social media, business, and beauty.

This week we’re joined by gastroenterologist and gut-brain researcher Dr. Trisha Pasricha, author of the upcoming book You’ve Been Pooping All Wrong. We talk about everything you’ve always wanted to know about your gut but were too embarrassed to ask: from fiber intake and her preferred supplements to “horrendous period poops,” GLP-1’s and your gut, and why stress can wreak havoc on digestion. Dr. Pasricha explains how the brain-gut connection shapes everything from bloating to anxiety and shares the daily habits that can help you reach what she calls “poophoria.” Plus, we answer listener questions about probiotics, digestive enzymes, gluten confusion, and the red flags women should never ignore when it comes to colorectal health.
