Leslie Tessler is the founder of Hanni, a bodycare brand that specializes in innovative, easy-to-use, ultra-hydrating products. Her first job was in fashion at Ralph Lauren before she pivoted into beauty as a marketing manager for L'Oréal Paris. She went on to continue her work at the executive level in the space with Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare. But after 10 years of working in such demanding roles, Tessler felt burned out. She booked a trip to Argentina to get away from it all, thinking she'd go back home in a few months, but she ended up falling in love with the culture and staying for a decade, during which she dreamed up the now-famous Hanni Weighted Razor and Shave Pillow. Leslie returned to the U.S. to officially launch Hanni in 2021, and her brand went on to become the first razor company to ever partner with Sephora in 2022. Today, it continues to expand the definition of bodycare with hit products that elevate everyday rituals.

Meet your customer where they want to shop. On the latest episode of the Omnichannel Marketer, I had the pleasure of talking with Sarah McNamara, Executive Vice President & General Manager at Peter Thomas Roth Clinical Skin Care and Naturally Serious Skin.Sarah is a beauty industry veteran, having worked at Unilever, L'Oreal, and grew her own beauty brand, Miracle Skin Transformer to $35M in revenue before selling it.Now she oversees Peter Thomas Roth.Peter Thomas Roth started in a doctor's office, but is now a retail powerhouse. It was one of the first brands to launch with Sephora when it came to the US market, and also is present in Sephora locations around the world. Other key channels for Peter Thomas Roth are Ulta Beauty, Amazon, and QVC. Sarah's philosophy is that you need to be where the customer is. That is highly dependent on demographics. PTR is a legacy brand that historically skews to an older demographic.So retail and QVC are big channels for them. Each channel has a unique offering for the demographic that frequents it. And the spread in Ulta is very different from Sephora. She loves department stores herself, but sees it as a shrinking business. Beauty is constantly evolving and experiencing unprecedented digital change. As Sarah says, “You snooze, you lose.” To that end, PTR also has a DTC presence and is active on social media to cater to some Gen X, Z, and even Alpha customers. Her team is actively tinkering with Tiktok shops. She was also relatively early to Amazon, compared to Clinique, another legacy brand that only launched on Amazon a few weeks ago.Sarah views the DTC site as a window into the brand and is in midst of an exciting website revamp going live in August. The PTR website serves loyalists, but she also realizes that every channel has its loyalists. “Some people really just want to buy on Amazon. Others only at Sephora.”At the end of the day, Sarah shares that good marketing is about “understanding where your customers are and making it easy for them to buy in those channels.”Thanks Sarah for sharing your experience and insights.

My stomach in my throat, I was unable to get the words out (in spite of being in a senior leadership role). Then, I heard my boss shut down the meeting. My heart sank. I was mortified. She pulled me aside and said, "You didn't trust your gut. You could've tabled the meeting like I did."Why didn't that option occur to me in the moment? Why did I feel like I needed permission?That was the day I set out to change. I began a journey of personal growth to discover the root of the problem. Once I did, I wanted every woman to experience that same freedom.I'm now on a mission to eradicate self-doubt in 10 million women in 10 years by giving them simple strategies to speak up and ask for what they want in the boardroom and beyond, resulting in more clients, job promotions, and negotiation wins.Companies like NASA, Netflix, Google, and Sephora have been propelled toward more effective communication skills through my signature framework, The Confidence Cocktail™.This is your invitation to step into your most confident self so you can catapult your career!

Welcome back to Bri Books, the podcast (and corner of the internet) where we educate, entertain, and feel our way through ideas both on and off the page. As we head toward the end of 2025 and look ahead to 2026, I'm sharing my best-of beauty and skincare favorites — the products I've loved all year and continue to reach for during the colder months. These are my true winter staples: products that prioritize hydration, warmth, glow, and comfort when the weather (and life) feels a little harsher. If you're new to the show, leave a review of Bri Books on Apple Podcasts, and listen to Bri Books on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.Please tell me where you're traveling to by using #bribooks on Instagram and subscribe to the Bri Books newsletter at bribookspod.com/newsletter. So cozy up with your tea, light a candle, swipe on your favorite lip gloss, and let's begin. Bri Books' Winter Beauty Philosophy I always think about winter beauty through memory. Last December, I was sipping hot cider by my Brooklyn window, watching snow fall, listening to my radiator hiss, and feeling my skin crack, peel, and protest. Late winter dryness hits me every year, so I've learned to curate intentionally. Here's how I nurture my skin and my beauty in the winter and beyond. 1. Dyson Corrale Flat Iron — $499–$539 I've used the Dyson Corrale for over five years, and it remains unmatched. Its flexing plates reduce heat damage and tugging, which is especially important when winter hair is already dry and fragile. Yes, it's an investment — but if you want salon-quality results at home, it's worth it. 2. Kérastase Nutritive Range — $40–$85 per product at Sephora For deep nourishment, the Kérastase Nutritive line is my winter hero. I use the shampoo weekly, followed by either the conditioner or the Riche mask. I always finish with the Nectar Thermique heat protectant and the split ends serum. When my scalp is dry, I add the hydrating scalp serum. If you're heat-styling more, always pair it with a mask. Winter hair loves moisture. 3. Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm — $42 at Sephora This cult favorite transforms from balm to oil to milk and melts away makeup and SPF without stripping the skin. It feels incredibly luxe — and in winter, hydration should feel indulgent. 4. Sephora Collection Overnight Hydrating Dose Mask — $10 each 2025 had me on more planes than ever — Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Shanghai, and Mexico. Sephora's sheet masks became my travel and weekend staples. They're affordable, effective, and easy to keep in rotation when your skin feels parched. 5. Elasten Liquid Collagen — $99 on Amazon This is my only true "health" pick of the year. Collagen production declines with age, and liquid collagen supplements can help support skin elasticity and hydration — especially when paired with vitamin C. I take mine in the morning with tea. It's a small ritual with a big payoff. 6. LUSH Bath Bombs & Epsom Salts — $6–$13 per bath bomb Long soaks are my ultimate self-care reset. I love LUSH bath bombs for the sensory experience, paired with classic Epsom salts for muscle relief. There's nothing like a hot bath before diving into life admin — or after a long day. 7. Mandelic Acid + Vitamin C — $20–$100 depending on brand After years of experimenting, I've stabilized my routine with professional guidance. Mandelic acid gently exfoliates while vitamin C protects against dullness and boosts brightness — a winter glow essential. 8. SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic — $185 Still my gold-standard antioxidant serum. It protects against oxidative stress from dry air and gives the skin a true glow shield. 9. Byredo "Mixed Emotions" Eau de Parfum — $235 Fragrance sets the mood for me year-round, and Byredo has completely captured my heart. Mixed Emotions is warm, woodsy, softly sweet, and deeply comforting — like a winter hug. 10. La Roche-Posay Anthelios SPF 50 — $49 SPF is non-negotiable, even in winter. This lightweight, broad-spectrum sunscreen works beautifully under makeup and doesn't irritate my eyes or sensitive skin. 11. OPI Infinite Shine Holiday 2025 — $7–$15 Winter nails take a beating with constant handwashing and gloves. OPI Infinite Shine delivers gel-like durability without the commitment. I love deep reds, classics, and neutral shades all season long. These are my winter beauty favorites — the products that carried me through 2025 and will absolutely stay with me into 2026.

Nima Jalali built SALT & STONE out of his apartment into a $100M+ brand, without ever pitching a single retailer. After an ACL injury redirected his path, he created something he desperately wanted but didn't exist, a high quality, clean deodorant, that actually performs. SALT & STONE has now become one of the fastest growing brands in the space to-date by doing things differently. Even right now, every 60 seconds a SALT & STONE deodorant is bought. In this candid conversation Nima opens up about transitioning from a pro surfboarder into the Founder role, what it takes to build a killer team, and what keeps him going. He reveals the counter-intuitive strategy that got Sephora to come to him, and how he iterated his deodorant formula through 5 generations before calling it perfect. You'll Learn: Why going through 5+ product iterations beats launching "good enough"The digital excellence strategy that makes retailers chase you (not the other way around)How to build legacy brand positioning even as a one-person startupWhy getting a "no" from retailers too early can kill your momentumThe mindset shift from solo athlete to team builderThe key to building a digital identity that inspires & attracts customersCHAPTERS: 00:00 Introducing Nima Jalali, Founder & CEO of SALT & STONE3:00 Transitioning from Pro Snowboarder to Business Owner 4:55 The 5 Generations of Product Perfection6:45 How to Think Like Nike When You're a One-Man Show8:13 What Nima Did to Build a Brand Sephora NEEDS to Have10:09 Steps to Achieve Digital Excellence 12:39 SALT & STONE'S Philosophy on: Ingredient Sourcing, Product Development & Testing 19:06 How to Set Your Business Up to Grow Into a Legacy Brand From Day 1 22:07 The Retail Strategy That Never Fails 28:35 Tackling Global Expansion & Managing Expectations as a Founder 29:55 Single Most Impactful Thing NIma Did in The First 6 Months That Made SALT & STONE Successful Subscribe and watch Shopify Masters on YouTube!Sign up for your FREE Shopify Trial here.
#181: Sam Burke, founder of Hale, joins Pat to break down how he and his team are building "the Sephora for men." Sam shares his path from engineering and brain-aging research to startups, including becoming chief of staff to Bonobos founder Andy Dunn after a scrappy growth challenge. Great story. They dig into the core problem Hale solves: men are spending more on personal care, but buying is still a high-trust decision in a low-trust environment. Sam walks through early validation (survey + MVP conversion), his recruiting approach (advisor tryouts before hiring), fundraising tactics (friends and family plus cold outreach), and how TikTok "day in the life" content builds trust, brand, and demand. So good!

This episode is a gift to your face! It's the grand finale, the last Q&A of the year is officially HERE! We're unleashing the essential, non-negotiable party hacks you need to conquer the holidays including a detailed eyelash curler masterclass where Leigh passionately defends the tool (even admitting she'd take it to Survivor!), and reveals her three-step technique for a perfect, breakage-free curl and naming the heroes worth your cash. Plus, we're settling a major beauty debate: Do those added skincare ingredients in primers (yes, looking at you, Go-To and e.l.f.) actually do anything when they're layered over your full routine? They can't hurt, but can they help? And finally, Kelly & Leigh drop some top-tier festive tips, including how to use boob tape for that perfect lift in any plunge dress and a genius hack using eyeshadow primer to stop face sweat—because we schvitz! In the Beauty Edit, Cass and Taylah unpack the seriously polarising choice of Cloud Dancer as the Pantone Colour of the Year 2026, and break down the blockbuster lawsuit where Sol de Janeiro is suing e.l.f.

In January, Kecia Steelman became one of the most powerful executives in beauty. After more than a decade at Ulta Beauty in positions like COO and head of international, she stepped into the president and CEO role with an uphill battle ahead of her. That's because sales at Ulta tumbled during the 2020 pandemic, and despite an uptick in 2021, year-over-year sales had been steadily falling for nearly three years. She took over as CEO in January, and by March, she unveiled her Ulta Beauty Unleashed comeback plan — and in just 11 months, her strategy has paid off. As part of her vision, Steelman expanded Ulta's e-commerce and product assortment with a new online marketplace, led the acquisition of U.K. specialty beauty retailer SpaceNK, expanded internationally into Mexico and the Middle East, and shepherded a shop-in-shop breakup with Target, all while dramatically improving revenue. Sales at Ulta Beauty have been on a continuous upward swing since Steelman took over as CEO in January. In May, the retailer reported 4.5% net sales growth. This doubled to a 9.3% net sales spike, reported in August, and the company nearly tripled that growth in last month's earnings report. Host Lexy Lebsack sat down with Steelman to unpack her first year in charge and look ahead to 2026 (16:50). But today's episode also celebrates Glossy 50, our annual award list honoring business leaders, changemakers and insiders behind the beauty, wellness and fashion industries. Steelman's interview is a special Glossy50 preview with the full list publishing next week. But first, Lebsack is joined by co-host Emily Jensen to break down the news of the week. This includes the novel launch of a new "bedtime fragrance" from the U.K. sleep-solution company This Works. The brand is known for its pillow spray and body oil, which include ingredients such as lavender and magnesium, but this week it expanded into fine fragrance designed to be applied before bed to improve sleep. Lebsack and Jensen also discuss the newest spokesperson for Estée Lauder-owned M.A.C. Cosmetics, pop star Chappell Roan, and the mixed response from her fans online. In addition, they analyze an unexpected collaboration between The Gap and beauty brand Summer Fridays, which includes clothing but not beauty. And finally, the duo discusses the latest moves in the supplement space, including Sephora's rollback of the category from its selection, and a buzzy new launch from the co-founder and former CEO of Allbirds.
Join Dr. Borger and special guest, dermatologist Dr Jeffy, as they dive into the rise of the “Sephora Kids” phenomenon — the cultural moment where tweens and teens are filling their carts with high-end skincare designed for adults. Drs Jeffy and Borger explore how social media, marketing, and self-image are shaping the next generation's relationship with beauty and wellness. Together, they unpack what young skin really needs — and what it doesn't. Dr. Jeffy also shares the inspiration behind her brand BTWN, created to provide safe, effective skincare for teens and tweens navigating this confusing beauty landscape. Tune in for a grounded, dermatologist-approved conversation on how to help the next generation build confidence, not just routines — and why healthy skin habits start with education, not expensive serums. Dr. Brooke Jeffy is a board-certified dermatologist and the founder of youth skincare brand, BTWN. Dr. Jeffy takes a holistic approach to skin health and is particularly passionate about helping adolescents create skin care habits for a lifetime of healthy skin. See her in her direct pay/concierge practice in North Scottsdale where she practices general dermatology and aesthetics.

Shani Darden just might be your favorite celebrity's esthetician. From her Beverly Hills Studio, she cares for a roster of A-List celebrities and creates products for many more through Sephora. Before she began working with stars like Jessica Alba and Kelly Rowland, Shani was a mixed-race teenager in upstate New York who didn't fit neatly into any community. Her family ensured that she had connections to Black hairstylists and introduced her to Mary Kay Beauty and DIY face masks. So, while she grew up feeling beautiful, she didn't always fit in. During our chat, she explained that she always had plans to move to a big city and build her dream life, even when she didn't know exactly what her path would be.Shani's life is a testament to taking opportunities to move and grow, especially when you feel uncomfortable. When a modeling opportunity in LA arose, she jumped at the chance and moved across the country. When she became disillusioned with the industry, she pivoted and sought out a new dream. Upon discovering esthetician school, Shani's childhood interest in beauty and her professional experience in spas aligned. With Jessica Alba's encouragement, she leapt into her own home-based studio and welcomed in a swell of new clients. Shani gives us an insider's look at her skincare philosophy and what she recommends for any beauty enthusiast over 25. She also gets real about the limits of skincare and non-surgical treatment, offering us refreshingly realistic expectations for our beauty treatments.

Snail mucin, "glass" or "mochi" skin, BB creams, face masks galore... if you are even remotely interested in makeup and skincare, you've probably noticed the rising influence (bordering on takeover) of Korean beauty in America. Emphasizing skin care and a more "demure" look, Korean beauty products have gone mainstream in the US and are everywhere now from Sephora to Walmart. What's behind the rise of K-beauty products in the US? Do these products even work? What are the beauty standards that underpin them? What about the more invasive beauty procedures (like plastic surgery) that Korea has also become known for? As Asian-Americans (including one resident Korean-American, one makeup and skincare connoisseur, and one professed "cavewoman" skincare adherent :) we've got the exclusive cross-cultural breakdown for you in this fun and honest look at the K-beauty phenomenon in America.
Join us and the Founding Fathers as we deep dive this week's episode of RHOSLC. Whitney blames Justin for the downfall of Wild Rose: it was headed towards Sephora before he got involved! We think Muzzy deserves a second chance from the Bravo community. Bad Weather don't like that Britani and Meredith made up, so they change the narrative at Spill the Tea Party. Lisa tells us she owns a horse with one on the way, Meredith gives everyone drug tests and caviar and Whitney accuses her of having a substance abuse problem. We also need to move away from this plane storyline.

My stomach in my throat, I was unable to get the words out (in spite of being in a senior leadership role). Then, I heard my boss shut down the meeting. My heart sank. I was mortified.

Should tweens be doing full 10-step Korean skincare routines at age 11? Absolutely not. Yes, Penelope—I'm looking at you. (She's my 11-year-old niece, so this topic is personal.) The truth is: it's happening, and it's not slowing down. So as parents and caregivers, we get to choose: ➡️ Let TikTok and Sephora trends lead, or ➡️ Get ahead with real skin knowledge, healthy habits, and truly clean ingredients. Today's guest chose the second path—and built what she couldn't find. When her daughters started asking for skincare, she noticed a huge gap: plenty of "clean" labels, not many products actually designed for young, age-appropriate skin. So she created one. Dr. Angela Casey is a double board-certified dermatologist, skin-cancer surgeon, educator, and member of the Forbes Health Advisory Board.

One night, Jenn Harper had the most vivid dream of three smiling Indigenous girls covered in colourful lip glosses. That dream, along with her newfound sobriety, led her to launch the company Cheekbone Beauty, which aims to bring positive representation of Indigenous folks into the beauty space. Lauded as a trailblazer in both sustainability and diversity, Jenn is now one of the cosmetics industry's most influential Canadians, and her groundbreaking beauty brand is sold in Sephora locations across the country. Jenn sits down with Tom Power to talk about her long, hard road to success, why Indigenous joy is the cornerstone of her business, and why representation is at the forefront of everything she does.

This week, I sit down with my friend and spiritual guide Christine Thompson for an honest conversation around psilocybin, plant medicine, and surrender. We get into how to know when it is (and isn't) your season to explore plant medicine, why curiosity matters more than “fixing,” and the unexpected skillset you actually need before you ever take a journey.We talk trauma, intention, and why psilocybin isn't an “easy button.” Christine shares how she discovered the power of mushrooms, the life-changing moment on a Florida beach that cracked her open, and what she's learned after nearly a decade of guiding others through this inner work.A word from my sponsors:K18 - Shop K18 mask at Sephora or get 10% off your first purchase with code KRISTIN at K18hair.com.Skims - Shop my favorite pajamas at SKIMS.com And if you're looking for the perfect gifts for everyone on your list - the SKIMS Holiday Shop is now open at SKIMS.comForia - Get 20% off your first order by visiting foriawellness.com/HONEST OR use code HONEST at checkoutARMRA - Go to armra.com/HONEST or enter HONEST to get 30% off your first subscription order.Cymbiotika - Go to Cymbiotika.com/Honest for 20% off plus free shippingThe Real Real - Get $25 off your first purchase when you go to TheRealReal.com/honestFor more Let's Be Honest, follow along at:@kristincavallari on Instagram@kristincavallari and @dearmedia on TikTokLet's Be Honest with Kristin Cavallari on YouTubeProduced by Dear Media.This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

Melanie Bender is the founder and CEO of Lore, a new fragrance brand that creates entire worlds in every bottle. Before becoming a leader in the beauty industry, Bender initially thought she'd enter the world of STEM. In college, she studied aerospace engineering and environmental science before becoming an environmental planner in her home state of Hawai'i. But her love for fashion and beauty led her to New York. It was there that she started a career that would make her an expert in every part of the process of brand-building—from PR to product development to marketing. Her natural talent and reputation led her to help grow beauty brands Versed and Merit before she was tapped to serve as the CEO of Hailey Bieber's Rhode. But she never abandoned what she learned when she studied STEM. She often credits the scientific method as the formula to entrepreneurial success that's gotten her to where she is today. Now, after more than a decade of building businesses across the beauty industry and leading them to new heights, Melanie's launched her own with Lore—her fragrance line that debuted at Sephora this year.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
