POPULARITY
For MCoBeauty CMO Meridith Rojas, the ability to democratize the beauty industry lies in the power of dupes. “We're in this moment, in this cultural zeitgeist, where people don't want to have to spend $1,000 on a face of beauty and don't want to be left out of the trends,” said Rojas. “We really want to create luxury for everyone. And of course, we have amazing dupes, but we also have some homegrown innovation. The combination has been really magnetic, and our community is growing in the U.S. so fast. We have a very exciting year ahead of us.” Dupes, the colloquial term for a lower-priced product inspired by a luxury category leader, makes up about half of MCo's offering. Unlike counterfeits or copies, which are often associated with unsafe formulas and flagrant IP violations, dupes are in their own category and are incredibly popular globally. MCoBeauty sells recognizable dupes for popular products from brands like Charlotte Tilbury, Drunk Elephant, Sol de Janeiro and Laneige for around a third of the price. For example, MCo Beauty's best-selling Flawless Glow Foundation retails for $14.99, and its Miracle Flawless Pressed Powder goes for $9.99. Similar products from Charlotte Tilbury retail for $49 and $28, respectively. It also offers non-dupes, like its best-selling XtendLash tubing mascara, which sells for $13.99. MCoBeauty was launched in Australia in 2016 by founder Shelley Sullivan, a former modeling agency owner. It is currently the top-selling color cosmetics brand in Australia and New Zealand, according to Greg Barker, MCoBeauty's evp of North America. As previously reported by Glossy in December, MCoBeauty launched its U.S. expansion at the end of 2024 with entry into 1,700 Kroger stores, which include regional grocery stores like Smiths, Fred Meyer, King Soopers, Frys, Ralphs and more. The expansion also includes DTC sales via MCoBeauty's site and Amazon. This week, MCo Beauty also launched into 1,300 Target doors and on Target.com. Rojas joined The Glossy Beauty Podcast to discuss MCoBeauty's U.S. expansion and the marketing strategy supporting it. She shared anecdotes about the company's OOH and digital marketing successes, including advice on building a digital community, connecting with influencers early in their careers, getting the best community UGC and hiring digitally-minded celebrities to lead social-first campaigns.
On this Thursday bonus episode we are going to play the interview from episode 263 from May 2020 with Greg Barker about moving from career in documentaries to making his first narrative feature for Netflix. I thought this was a good pairing for Stefon because both their first narrative features were produced by Netflix, under very different circumstances and in different points in their careers.

Note: Clips of 'Ghosts of Beirut' are courtesy Showtime. Audio of Lebanon at war is from the Associated Press archive. As Lebanon sank into the abyss in the 1980s, few people noticed a teenager who had worked as a bodyguard for Yasser Arafat's PLO. But his deeds would soon start making international headlines. Long before Osama bin Laden became a household name, this unknown young man began a decades-long crusade of bombings, kidnappings, and assassinations that would leave hundreds of people dead in dozens of attacks across the globe. Few knew what he looked like or his actual name. Known as "the ghost," Imad Mughniyeh was a founding member of Hezbollah in Lebanon. Mughniyeh remains a mysterious figure, but he made an enduring impact on history. His rise and fall are the focus of the new Showtime dramatic series “Ghosts of Beirut.” In this episode, director Greg Barker discusses why he made a film about the terrorist whose mark on global events far surpassed his notoriety, a shadowy figure whom the CIA and Mossad hunted for a quarter-century.
Washington Post intelligence and national security reporter Shane Harris speaks with “Ghosts of Beirut” actress Dina Shihabi and co-creators Greg Barker and Avi Issacharoff to offer an inside look at their new spy drama about one of the world's most elusive terrorists, Imad Mughniyeh.

Director Greg Barker new documentary film, WHITE COAT REBELS, is an urgent wake-up call into the corrupting influence of Big Pharma on the medical profession and the courageous young doctors and students fighting back to improve inequities in healthcare. The film revolves around the direct actions of health professionals seeking to reform a broken health care system. Many of the film participants, including UCLA medical student Neda Ashtari, belong to Universities Allied for Essential Medicine (UAEM). UAEM is a student-driven organization working to improve access to and affordability of life-saving medicines, especially those researched and developed at universities with public funding. Other health professionals featured include: Dr. Michael Fine, Rhode Island's former Health Director, who organizes healthcare on behalf of marginalized communities; and Dr. Danielle Ofri of New York's Bellevue Hospital. Director Greg Barker (The Final Year, The Longest War, Sergio), and Producer Harriet Fraser stop by to talk about the critically important issues surrounding the industry's profit over people ethos and the daunting challenge millions of Americans face trying to gain access to effective, affordable health care.

A young man from the San Francisco suburbs journeys to the Middle East and soon finds himself as the face of Islamist extremism in post-9/11 America. This is the story of John Walker Lindh, as explored in the recent Showtime hit documentary Detainee 001. Emmy-winning director Greg Barker joins us to discuss this unlikeliest of stories. The film shows how America grapples with justice in the fog of war, and how narratives were built and destroyed in the aftermath of 9/11. We discuss the misconceptions people have about John Walker Lindh, the life of freelance war journalists, and how Greg has managed to gain access to high-profile subjects over the years. “They all either got totally hooked on the adrenaline of war reporting, or they had a moment where they thought, I don't want to get killed.” - Greg Barker Time Stamps: 00:00 - The trailer for Detainee 001. 03:23 - What the film is about and how people responded to John Walker Lindh. 07:05 - The misconceptions that were pushed by the media about this man. 10:22 - The vilification of Muslims in America. 12:39 - How Greg accessed the footage for the film. 18:22 - The freelance journalists that risked their lives to document the Taliban. 22:04 - Why it was so difficult to get people to talk about the John Walker Lindh case. 25:27 - Why Lindh joined the Taliban and the links he has to Malcolm X. 27:21 - Where John Walker Lindh is and the difficulties Greg had in contacting him. 30:57 - Why Greg wanted to make this film. 32:06 - How he knew the Taliban would regain power in Afghanistan. 35:33 - How he gains access to such high-profile subjects. 42:36 - The next projects Greg is working on. 44:15 - The shift in the type of documentaries that are getting commissioned.

O mais novo filme da Netflix, o biográfico Sergio. Traz os últimos momentos de vida do diplomata brasileiro Sergio Vieira de Mello em suas missões diplomáticas em nome da ONU, tanto na independência do Timor-Leste quanto a fatídica missão no Iraque. Dirigido por Greg Barker e estrelado por Wagner Moura. Afim de comentar essa nova obra o Podcast dos Amigões convidou as amigonas Livia e Alexia. Contém Spoilers!!! #netflix #wagnermoura #biográfico
Wagner Moura discusses how his first career as a journalist informs his acting, what it was like to play ruthless drug lord Pablo Escobar on Netflix’s Narcos, and how he gained (and then lost) all of that weight for the role. He talks about his fascination with the late UN diplomat Sergio de Mello, playing him in the new film Sergio, and how Iraq might have turned out very differently if de Mello had lived to complete his mission there. He says working with war correspondent and documentary filmmaker Greg Barker added extra authenticity to Sergio, he reveals that they even used real-life refugees as extras on the film, and he suggests that the political leaders who are now dealing with the Coronavirus could learn from Sergio de Mello's example. See Wagner Moura in Sergio, no streaming on Netflix. Today's episode was sponsored by Demand Justice. Visit www.demandjustice.org/kick to learn more and support voting rights in 2020.
"Estoy firmemente convencido de que una estrategia para la seguridad puede y debe guiarse por la defensa del imperio de la ley y el respeto por los derechos humanos"- Sérgio Vieira de Mello Wagner Moura, actor brasileño quien nos trajo a la pantalla personajes emblemáticos como ‘Pablo Escobar’ en la serie Narcos (Netflix) y el ‘Capitán Nascimento’ en la película Tropa de Élite, se une a la cubana Ana de Armas ("Blade runner 2049", "Knives Out"). En colaboración con la pluma de Craig Borten (Dallas Buyers Club) y la dirección de Greg Barker le dan vida a los momentos políticos y amorosos más interesantes de "Sergio Vieira de Mello"; un funcionario Brasileño de la ONU quien cooperó en la solución de conflictos en países como Bangladesh, Yugoslavia, Camboya, Chipre, Líbano, entre otros. Sin embargo, fue su actuación entre 1999 y 2002 en Timor Oriental (debilitado tras 24 años de invasión indonesia) lo que le hizo ganar notoriedad global.

Dos títulos basados en vidas reales muy diferentes. El primero, Tiger King, es una serie documental que se ha vuelto todo un fenómeno por lo inverosímiles y estrambóticos personajes que retrata dentro del mundo estadounidense de los dueños de grandes felinos. Luis Pablo Beauregard, Mariana Linares Cruz y Trino Camacho platican sobre la locura que representa ese universo, y sus protagonistas como Joe Exotic y Carole Baskin, mientras que Ricardo López investiga cómo los directores, Rebecca Chaiklin y Eric Good acabaron ante una historia tan extraña.

Today I talk with filmmaker Greg Barker, who won an Emmy for his HBO documentary MANHUNT: THE UNTOLD STORY BEHIND THE HUNT FOR BIN LADEN, about his new film for HBO called HOMEGROWN: THE COUNTER-TERRORISM DILEMMA. In his latest project, he explores the threat of "self-radicalizing" terrorists right here in America through the eyes of the Deputy Directors of the National Counter Terrorism Center and the FBI's National Security Branch, as well as the family members of the Ft. Hood shooter and other U.S. citizens convicted of providing "material support to terrorism." We talk about the film and the many aspects of the issue of homegrown terrorism including domestic surveillance, 1st Amendment rights, the availability of jihadi propaganda online, and the need for U.S. Muslims to take a more proactive role in combating that propaganda and saving young Muslim-American men from the influence of groups like Al Qaeda and ISIS. Greg Barker's film HOMEGROWN: THE COUNTERTERRORISM DILEMMA premieres Monday, February 8 at 9PM EST on HBO. Please subscribe to KickAss Politics on iTunes and leave us a review.
