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.
