I always look forward to new episodes of Fat Mascara! I’ve been listening for several years now and I think Kirbie and Sara are super knowledgeable and always find ways of keeping the show fresh and entertaining. My only tweak - it would be great if there was intro/outro music between the show and commercials. Sometimes I’ll be listening to the show and suddenly they’re reading an ad, but there was no music to transition out of the show, so it’s a little confusing. Otherwise, I love the show!

I’m white , I’m not an influencer , I’m a fitness instructor , I was turned on to the YSL liquid blush by my African American colleague , and I was shocked to hear this podcast . The product is excellent and feels healthy on skin. We love it . I believe this “racist” trend is a financed group and it contrasts with the reality on the ground . This is a deliberate attempt to distract the American people from much deeper systemic problems in this country, in the typical very well oiled machine of divide and conquer. I wish your podcast kept the focus. Try the product and give your own review without feeding on the mediocrity of America is racist and everything is racist. I like the show otherwise but this is recurring and it’s annoying .

I love how they keep it light but still give real information about health, beauty, and issues that matter to women. THANK YOU KIRBY AND SARA!!!

Listening Feels like I’m just having a chat with my really smart girlfriends lol. They are so relatable and I love how they fill us in on current events with the full backstory. I am 43 and don’t feel so out of the loop thanks to them 💜💜💜

Discovered Gloss Angeles a few years ago, I have learned so much about skincare, makeup, and new products that have become favorites. Hosts Kirbie and Sara are so much fun to listen too, love their honesty and curiosity. And I love a good WOYF, IYKYK. SPF 50 forever!

I need this podcast to escape. I think we're all overloaded with information coming at us from all angles and it can be overwhelming. This podcast is informative but fun and lighthearted. Such a nice change from all of the fear mongering podcasts out there. I just love it.

Kirbie and Sara take the time to research and talk about the things that matter to us most. A lot of other beauty podcasts can get into the weeds, but they keep it fresh and always talk about current things happening and best of all- all the new products that hit the market!

One of my favorite podcasts. I love the range of topics and that they go beyond just product reviews. I want to hear about news in the industry, trends, interviews with experts, more niche topics like eye care, and everything else they discuss! And to address some of the negative reviews I skimmed by, whether you like it or not lasers and injectables and more invasive procedures are pushing their way into the “beauty and skincare” space so I want to hear them mentioned! Let’s please not pretend that people get these amazing looks through eye creams and serums alone. And personally I find Kirbie funny and think the two personalities play off each other so well. So Kirbie and Sara please keep putting out episodes, don’t change, AND keep evolving the podcast as the beauty industry evolves! (Btw, I would love to hear a crossover episode with Eyewitness Beauty!)

Love this podcast so much! I’m very into all things beauty and this podcast is my fav. Love Kirbie and Sara!

Literally the only podcast I listen to and my go-to media to download before a long flight. Takes my mind away from the stressors of life and allows me to focus on beauty, aka my favorite topic. Sara and Kirbie offer great insights and their connections within the industry are apparent. Appreciate how open minded and enthusiastic these two are about revealing the truth behind new trends and building a community of like-minded beauty lovers. I genuinely might purchase their merch because I’m obsessed ✨

Kirbie and Sara's expertise shines through on Gloss Angeles. I love how they consistently deliver the latest beauty stories, often ahead of other sources. The Hollywood/LA perspective adds a unique touch that sets it apart from other beauty podcasts. Excited to hear from the guests they'll bring on this year. Who could be more Hollywood than Charlotte Tilbury?! 😍😍😍🙏🏼 Thanks for the consistently high-quality content!

Gloss Angeles is one of my favorite podcasts. Sara and Kirbie are excellent journalists. I have learned so much about beauty and the business of beauty.

I cannot understate how great this podcast is! I’ve learned a lot about both beauty—why it works, how to use it, what order, etc—but also the industry and other industries that intersect with it. It’s easy to listen to, and I also come away learning stuff that I carry over into irl conversations with people. The fact the two hosts are not only pleasant and fun to listen to, but have such great journalistic backgrounds really sets this podcast apart. I also have come across many products that I love from this podcast (and saved myself $$ from ones I likely wouldn’t have), due to being able to trust their reviews and opinions. One of the only places where I feel like I am not hearing paid content in the beauty industry, and I’m so appreciative. 5 stars, give it a listen, hope it runs forever!!

My favorite podcast!

I TREASURE this show. Well researched journalism, amazing guests, and the most incredible hosts. I LOVE GLOSS ANGELES!

I like your show.I was concerned that making light of George Santos without context is dangerous to an uninformed audience .

I used to listen to Sara and Kirbie religiously and appreciated their insights. Lately, Kirbie’s comments and antics have begun to feel off-putting. Her accents are horrible and quite honestly insulting to the people she’s trying to mimic. It’s almost a little racist - more importantly, it shows her ignorance on world culture. I had to turn off the most recent episode where Kirbie is talking about her first time in London and sharing all her newfound knowledge. Refusing to ride the subway in NYC? C’mon! If you want to have the respect of your listeners and peers and appear to be all-knowing then maybe have more life experiences?

I first started following Gloss Angeles during the pandemic for beauty and skincare recommendations. Maybe there’s a runway of how many episodes you can make dedicated to those topics. In recent episodes, Sarah and Kirbie (particularly Kirbie) have become more and more focused expensive and extreme measures to combat aging. Kirbie and Sarah have given me a lot of great tips over the years. I used to find them much more conscientious and aware of the harm of talking and promoting plastic surgery. I hope they regain some of that consciousness.

People seek beauty to find confidence. Gloss Angeles somehow glosses over any sort of heartfelt approach to beauty by gushing about the free products they get. I’d respect this show more if they were less sales-y and more editorially inclined. And what’s with the plastic surgery discussions? That just seems counter to all the hyping of products because you wouldn’t need them if you go under the knife.

I am so happy I found your Podcast. I am listening from the beginning. Kirbie your laugh brightens my day. Tell me why Marc Jacob’s Velvet Noir no longer exists. Please keep doing what you are doing!!!!

This is literally my favorite podcast and absolutely the best podcast in beauty. Feels like listening to your beauty insider besties. I was a newbie to the beauty industry and started subscribing to every beauty podcast and publication to soak up all the info I could. Over a year later Gloss Angles is the one I most look forward to. The guests are top notch but I also just love hearing Sara an Kirbie go back and forth. Keep up the good work can’t wait for everything to come!

I love all things beauty, but between kirbies know it all attitude and Sara just riding her coat tails, this show is a last resort to listen to if I have exhausted all other options.

They are so knowledgeable and fun about all things beauty. It’s difficult to find beauty related content that is science based and not full of grifty, woo-woo false claims, but gloss Angeles is a great podcast to hear about products and beauty trends for what they are. Love you!

It’s the best of the pack! Love the tone, humor and levity but also facts and info. So good.

Love Kirbie & Sarah.. great guests and topics.

Love these ladies always so fun and informative.

Had to stop listening after only a few episodes. First, for the same reason I stopped listening to morbid. PLEASE stop saying literally every other word. No, it’s not literally like at the speed of light or whatever. Not only are using the word incorrectly, but so repetitively. Get a thesaurus & learn some new words & sound more informed. Also, the name dropping & the insistence on cosmetic procedures, as if everyone can afford those is so tone deaf considering the state of the average consumer right now.

I have been listening to this podcast for a while now and I have always found it so insightful and fun. I’ve learned so much about skincare! I got excited about the episode about products to use and not use during pregnancy UNTIL Kirby gave an intro and said that “not just women can give birth, and there are birthing people” what?!? I feel this was completely ignorant, incorrect and misleading. Aside from how people feel about their gender identity etc. biology has shown that ONLY WOMEN CAN GIVE BIRTH. A women’s body was designed for it. Men’s anatomy was never designed to produce, carry and birth a fetus/baby regardless of them feeling and identifying as a woman. This trend of being woke and being an ally and simply accepting and agreeing with false information is not something I can respect. There wasn’t a need for this comment in the intro at all. They could have just introduced the Derm and Gyn and started the episode. So annoyed that the episode started like that. Ugh

I LOVE this podcast - the hosts are super entertaining and knowledgeable. The only issue I have is that neither one of them uses the word ‘an’ before a word that starts with a vowel. It should be ‘an’ esthetician, ‘an’ eyebrow pencil, ‘an’ eyeshadow palette. Such a small issue and yet it never fails to drive me nuts . Otherwise, I think this podcast is great and such an awesome resource for beauty lovers like myself!

I’ve enjoyed this podcast in that I’ve learned about the beauty marketplace and new launches, but I probably only finish maybe 30% of the episodes due to some cringe factor (weirdly, there are several). Listeners beware, there is a lot of privilege dropped in a self-unaware way. They love their luxury products that they don’t pay for, and Kirbie is an open advocate for plastic surgery and expensive treatments, which I’ve overall found a little triggering. I sometimes take breaks from listening when I find myself homing in on something I don’t like about my skin, lips, etc. This podcast skews my perspective (in a bad way) when I listen too consistently.

I learn so much and they are so entertaining. I love these girls. They have the best guests on too.

used to be a loyalist, but the riding for rhode beauty is going soooo hard. how good can it be? shes naturally pretty already…. if im getting money to a bieber i better be seeing justin in concert.

Love the pod and love LA! Sara and Kirbie are excellent hosts, they both offer such thoughtful insights and are great interviewers. 11/10!

I’m addicted

Have a question about anything beauty related? Kirbie and Sara have got you covered. 😎 Whether you’re well versed in the makeup / skincare world, or looking for the perfect way to dive into all things beauty, this is a must-listen podcast for you!Kirbie and Sara do an incredible job leading engaging conversations with industry leaders and influencers and every. single. episode. is jam-packed with helpful takeaways. Highly recommend listening and subscribing!

Please reconsider supporting and advertising a celebrity that doesn’t seem to learn from her constant appropriating cultures. Do some research…it’s sad and not okay.

Where do I even begin with Gloss Angeles? First of all, Kirbie and Sarah are like the super cool older sisters that you’d wanna be bffs with cause they’ll tell you all their beauty secrets and the insider tips. I love their voices and I love their friendship. Like let me tell you, Kirbie and Sarah are THE “it” girls. They get the most special guests and ask such thoughtful questions. Not only do they have great chemistry with each other, but also with the guests as well. I’d sell my kidney to be able to hang out w these gal pals for like a day. Give this podcast a listen and I promise you’ll never wanna stop!!!

I enjoy the topics and mostly enjoy listening, but if I hear one more “like literally” I’m gonna lose it. I’m a girl who lives in California and in my 20’s so if I get annoyed by how many “likes” are in a conversation it’s probably pretty bad.

Super-fascinating beauty podcast - thank you for these topics!

This podcast brings me so much value and joy. Sara and Kirbie keep things light, are knowledgeable, funny, and make me feel so warm and fuzzy as a listener! Always look forward to listening on my walks/ midday breaks. Love you guys!!

Love this podcast. I’ve been binging episodes and taking notes. I feel like these ladies really want to educate us and also keep us up on the latest and greatest! Their tips have completely changed my skincare. Thank you!

Appreciate budget friendly referrals and skincare for those in menopause if u could drill into that. Maybe touch on lash serums- good or bad for us?

Wonderful and informative beauty podcast. However, please consider talking more about drugstore/reasonably priced products! I absolutely love listening to you, and I love product reviews, but I can’t afford anything you talk about! I’m sure I’m not the only listener who feels this way. Come on ladies, I’m sure you have a wealth of knowledge about drugstore makeup and skincare. I still love this podcast!

My favorite podcast!!

Where have I been??!?! A podcast that spills all the “T”, gives all the reviews on current skincare, makeup, hair products and everything else I’m secretly addicted to??!?! I’m ALL in!!!

This episode was awful and hard to listen to. All Dr Zalka did was try to sell her products for 45 minutes. She didn’t offer any actual solutions that didn’t involve her products. Really disappointed.

I am three episodes in and... I am loving this podcast. These women are knowledgeable on skincare as well as the women they have chatted with! They also bring a side of humor that is enjoyable and is sure to make you giggle or put a smile on your face. I suggest all three episodes I’ve listened to; 1. ‘Microcurrent 101 With NuFACE’s Tera Peterson’ (Loved this one!!!), 2. ‘How to Properly Apply Your Skincare in Order’ (Everyone NEEDS TO KNOW!), 3. ‘How Do Your Favorite Beauty Brands and Influencers Rate on the Cultish Scale?’ (I found this one quite fascinating! If you like psychology you will definitely like this one!). Overall I give this Podcast 5/5 STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Kirby and Sara do an amazing job as hosts and interviewers. Their questions and topics are thoughtful and engaging, without overpowering or talking over their guests like other podcast hosts can often do. They are true experts and bring depth and legitimacy to the topic of beauty. My fav listen for entertainment and trend spotting!

I recently started listening to this podcast after I heard about it on Forever35 on a collab episode and I’m so glad I did! It is super informative and I love the interviews with beauty and skincare founders. I’ve learned a ton and tried some new products that I love!

I love the pod and when I listen, I feel like im sitting and chatting with my own friends! Great advice, great guests and love the education they’re providing us all. Only thing I’ll say that bothers me are the episode titles. I feel like they’re wayyyy too long and it turns me away from listening sometimes. It’s so overwhelming to read and decipher what the episode is actually going to be about. It’s very frustrating imho
