When it comes to innovation in the beauty industry, few wield more power and influence than Guive Balooch, L'Oréal Group's longtime tech leader.  “In the last three or four years, [we've seen] this incredible shift in the speed of innovation,” Balooch told Glossy. “It feels great to work on things that are shaping the future of our industry.”  Since Balooch last joined the Glossy Beauty Podcast in 2021, his team has released a light-powered blowdryer called the AirLight Pro; an in-store skin diagnostic device called Cell BioPrint; Water Saver, an in-salon water reduction tool; a home hair-color application tool called Color Sonic; and many more innovations. He's also taken on an expanded role as global vp of tech and open innovation, where he now oversees the partnerships driving L'Oréal's future innovation. This includes investments in Swiss longevity biotech company Timeline and San Diego-based Debut Biotech. In today's episode, Balooch shares insights into the future of beauty innovation, which includes further exploration of the skin's microbiome, ingredient creation through biotechnology and beauty at the intersection of longevity. He also shares details on his team's use of AI, the latest shift in consumer desires, and the unexpected inspiration behind L'Oréal's new 3D printable eyebrow technology called 3D shu:brow.  But first, Lexy Lebsack is joined by senior reporter Emily Jensen to walk through the biggest beauty and wellness news of the week.

And they discuss Macy's Inc., which saw its best comparable sales growth in 12 quarters, thanks to boosts of 3.6% at Bloomingdale's and 1.2% at Bluemercury. Finally, everything you need to know about the influx of lawsuits in California courts challenging “made in America” marketing claims by top beauty brands including Unilever-owned Paula's Choice and It's a 10, which is privately held. 

In 2019, Charlie Bowes-Lyon co-founded Wild with childhood friend Freddy Ward, frustrated by the lack of sustainable options in personal care. Their first product — a refillable deodorant in compostable packaging — struck a chord with consumers looking to cut down on plastic. From a standing start, Wild became one of the UK's fastest-growing consumer brands, selling millions of units, building a loyal online following and moving rapidly into high-street stores. The company has already replaced hundreds of tonnes of single-use plastic. In 2025, Wild was acquired by Unilever in a deal worth hundreds of millions. Charlie speaks to Evan Davis about building a disruptive eco-brand, and what it takes to scale a start-up into a global business.Producer: Osman Iqbal Series Producer: Simon Tulett Editor: Matt Willis Sound: Gareth Jones Production co-ordinator: Katie Morrison and Rosie Strawbridge

Have you ever wondered why some companies thrive while others, with seemingly great products, collapse? The answer often lies in an unseen force: corporate governance.

This episode is a must-watch for any finance professional looking to understand the forces that truly drive a company's financial success.This episode covers:What is Corporate Governance? We demystify this critical framework, explaining its role as the "operating system" for a company's financial decision-making, from risk management to capital allocation.When Governance Fails: We analyze the devastating consequences of governance failures at Enron, Theranos, and WeWork, revealing how a lack of transparency, expertise, and oversight can destroy billions in value.When Governance Works: We look at inspiring examples of good governance in action, showing how companies like Unilever and Microsoft used a strong framework to foster resilience, innovation, and long-term value creation.Your Role in Governance: We provide five actionable best practices for finance professionals to become central players in strengthening their company's financial integrity and strategic clarity.This is a comprehensive guide to understanding the invisible hand that guides a company's financial future.

In this episode of the Web3 Marketing Association Podcast, hosts Suresh Balaji and Dave Wallace are joined by Diego Borgo, brand consultant, advisor, NFT collector, and educator, to explore what it takes for brands to enter the metaverse responsibly and meaningfully.Diego shares his journey from 18 years in digital marketing to advising Fortune 500 companies like Adidas, Unilever, Volkswagen, and Salesforce on Web3 strategy. His work spans three pillars: consulting global brands on how to engage with Web3, advising NFT-native projects at the cutting edge of innovation, and educating through panels, keynotes, and his new Nas Academy Masterclass on how brands should enter the metaverse.The conversation highlights a critical mentality shift—from consumers to co-creators, from one-way communication to community collaboration. Diego explains how leading brands are already thinking in terms of perpetual royalties for artists, shared ownership models, and “win–win–win” outcomes where brands, creators, and communities all benefit.They also discuss the challenges of user experience, onboarding, and community engagement. Discord, while central today, is seen as a “necessary evil,” with better solutions on the horizon. Diego emphasises the importance of frictionless entry points—like fiat payments and digital collectibles—to bring mainstream audiences into Web3 without overwhelming them with technical barriers.For marketers, this episode underscores the opportunity—and responsibility—of embracing Web3 as more than a technology trend. It is a cultural shift towards decentralisation, collaboration, and community-powered brand building. Diego argues that the brands willing to adapt will not only survive this transition but may redefine what brand power means in the digital age.

Het gaat nu wel heel snel. De vorige verkoopronde is nog maar nauwelijks afgerond, en het is alweer tijd om het belang verder af te bouwen. De Nederlandse staat heeft nu nog 30,5 procent van de aandelen ABN Amro in handen, maar wil dat de komende dagen gaan verlagen naar 20 procent. De overheid maakt daarmee wel gebruik van de stevig opgelopen beurskoers van de bank. Maar ondertussen zitten er nog altijd Europese banken om zich heen te kijken voor mogelijke overnamekandidaten. Valt ABN dan straks toch ten prooi aan een concurrent? Dat vertellen we je deze aflevering. Dan hebben we ook nog even de zomer in de bol. In Londen werd namelijk de eigen verwachting gepresenteerd van mogelijk de grootste beursgang op het Damrak dit jaar. Via de afsplitsing van de ijsjestak van Unilever verwelkomen we half november de Magnum Ice Cream Company. En beleggers worden alvast warm gemaakt met de belofte van dividend. Smelten ze daarbij weg van vreugde? Of wordt die beursgang een ijskoude douche voor Unilever? In Amerika is er trouwens een Nederlands bedrijf dat de show steelt. Dat krijgt de onvoorwaardelijke liefde van beleggers na een miljardendeal. En midden in de aflevering krijgen we te horen wie de gelukkigen zijn. Vijf bedrijven uit de Midkap krijgen een promotie naar de AEX met de uitbreiding daarvan. Dus we nemen alvast heel kort door wie van de vijf de beste toevoeging is.

De Nederlandse staat heeft nu nog 30,5 procent van de aandelen ABN Amro in handen, maar wil dat de komende dagen gaan verlagen naar 20 procent.

‘Hi, sorry to bother you! I’m Mila from Randstad. We would like to offer you a remote part time job.’ Deze vorm van oplichting is bezig aan opmars. In sms'jes, belletjes en appjes doen oplichters zich voor als recruiters van de hr-afdeling van bijvoorbeeld Randstad of Indeed. Bij de Fraudehelpdesk is dit jaar tot nu toe meer dan €1,8 mln aan schade gemeld, een bedrag dat nu al hoger ligt dan het totaal van vorig jaar (€1,67 mln). FD-redacteur Jildou Beiboer vertelt hoe de fraudeurs te werk gaan. Lees: Schade door vacaturefraude neemt hard toe Bijna 290.000 huizen moeten er vóór 2030 verrijzen in zeventien grootschalige woningbouwgebieden. Daarmee zijn deze Novex-locaties een belangrijke pijler onder de politieke belofte om jaarlijks 100.000 woningen te bouwen. Maar het project verloopt moeizaam, blijkt uit cijfers die het FD opvroeg bij gemeenten. Woningmarktredacteur Erik van Rein vertelt wat er misgaat en of het doel nog te behalen is. Lees: Woningbouwdoelen op grote locaties raken uit zicht De ijstak van Unilever gaat half november afsplitsen en gaat dan zelfstandig verder onder de naam Magnum. Dan gaat het bedrijf ook naar de beurs, en dat wordt de grootste beursgang in Nederland in het komende halfjaar. De meningen van analisten hierover zijn verdeeld. Redacteur detailhandel Orla McDonald legt uit hoe de afsplitsing en beursgang eruit gaan zien.

Hoy hablamos de una ruptura empresarial importante: tras una década de colaboración, Kraft Heinz ha decidido poner fin a su asociación. Ambas compañías se unieron en 2015 con la intención de combinar sus fortalezas y crear una potencia global en el sector alimentario. Sin embargo, esta alianza terminará oficialmente en la segunda mitad de 2026. Tras el anuncio, las acciones de la empresa sufrieron una caída de más del 7%. A partir del próximo año, cada compañía operará y cotizará por separado. Para Carlos Abrams-Rivera, actual CEO, esta separación permitirá "liberar el verdadero potencial de nuestras marcas y negocio", aunque lo cierto es que se pone punto final a una historia de expectativas no cumplidas. En sus inicios, el proyecto fue impulsado por figuras como Warren Buffett y el fondo de inversión brasileño 3G Capital. La estrategia buscaba que Kraft se beneficiara del alcance internacional de Heinz, mientras que esta última aprovecharía la presencia de Kraft en el mercado estadounidense. No obstante, solo nueve años después, el propio Buffett admitió el fracaso de la operación en una entrevista con CNBC, lamentando que las negociaciones con grandes cadenas minoristas siempre son complejas. Basta con observar los resultados financieros: en 2016, las ventas netas fueron de 26.000 millones de dólares, mientras que en 2024 apenas alcanzaron los 25.000 millones. En cuanto a beneficios, la compañía también ha retrocedido. En 2016, sus ingresos netos fueron de 3.400 millones de dólares, cifra que descendió a 2.700 millones en 2024. A nivel bursátil, la situación tampoco ha sido favorable. El valor de sus acciones pasó de 62,15 dólares en 2016 a 27 dólares en la actualidad, y su valoración total ha disminuido de 45.000 a 32.000 millones de dólares. Este descenso se ha visto acentuado por una caída en el consumo de productos no esenciales en EE. UU., impulsada por la inflación. Los analistas coinciden en que uno de los grandes errores fue no aprovechar completamente la red global de Heinz. Incluso en 2017 intentaron comprar Unilever, sin éxito, lo que también afectó negativamente a su cotización. Ahora, Kraft Heinz opta por simplificar su estructura y retomar el uso independiente de ambas marcas, una tendencia creciente en el sector. Ejemplos recientes incluyen la escisión de Kellogg en 2023 —dividiendo su negocio en Kellanova y WK Kellogg—, Dr Pepper separando sus líneas de café y bebidas frías, y Unilever planeando que su división de helados, liderada por Magnum, cotice por separado.

In this episode, I break down the genius behind Ben & Jerry's brand strategy, and guess what? It's not just about ice cream. From a little scoop shop in Vermont to an $8 billion Unilever buyout, they've stayed loud, proud, and unapologetically activist.We're talking about what happens when purpose isn't just slapped on a values page, but baked into the DNA of the business. The risks, the rewards, the occasional controversy – and why their ability to stand for something bigger than dessert is exactly what built their cult-level loyalty.Listen to this if you want to see how aligning values with strategy is more than just good ethics... it's good business. Ben & Jerry's is proof that when you do it right, you don't just sell products, you build trust that lasts.The Brand Gap Finder Download:https://youroneandonly.kit.com/17de8fad49Send us a textVisit https://youroneandonly.com.au/ Follow YO&O on IG https://www.instagram.com/youroneandonly_au/Follow Tara on IG https://www.instagram.com/iamtaraladd/Connect with Tara on https://www.linkedin.com/in/tarajoyladd/Sign up for the Design Mind Theory Email – See how other Brands use psychology to nail their strategies.

In this episode, Gordon is joined by Frida  Elisson to talk about her journey across sectors and continents—from Lidl to Unilever, Google to eBay, and now as CMO of Kleinanzeigen. From the ballet studio to the boardroom, Frida's career is anything but linear—and all the more inspiring because of it.They explore what it means to shape iconic brands through times of transformation, the power of curiosity and adaptability and why making big leaps can be the key to staying excited about your career.The conversation explores what it really meant to bring classical brand thinking into Google Germany, steering Kleinanzeigen's shift from “second-hand” to “sustainable” and why impact, not just output, defines great marketing.Tune in  to get inspired – whether you're in FMCG, tech or just trying to navigate your own next leap.

Gisteren waren Samsung en SK Hynix de pineut. Ze mochten geen nieuwe Amerikaanse chipmachines meer naar hun Chinese fabrieken brengen. Een maatregel die ASML, ASMI, Besi amper raakte. Maar vandaag staan die drie wel fors lager, nu president Donald Trump hetzelfde trucje uithaalt met TSMC. Na dit jaar is het klaar met nieuwe Amerikaanse machines daar. Waarom 'onze' chipbedrijven daar nu wel op reageren, bespreken we deze aflevering. We hebben het ook over dips. Het was het gedroomde huwelijk van wonderbelegger Warren Buffett: Kraft en Heinz samen. Maar de twee gaan na tien jaar weer uit elkaar. De fusie heeft de gezamenlijke beurskoers geen goed gedaan: hij zakte in tien jaar tijd met bijna 70 procent. Vandaag geven beleggers het aandeel nog een extra zetje omlaag. Dan vertellen we je ook nog over een níeuw chiphuwelijk: tussen ASML-topman Christophe Fouquet en Narendra Modi, de premier van India. Je hoort over Scott Bessent, de Amerikaanse minister van Financiën die steeds vaker tegen zijn president Trump ingaat. Al blijft 'ie 'm ook nog steeds verdedigen. En mocht je nog van plan zijn om je leidinggevende op date te vragen, dan leer je ook waarom dat geen goed idee is.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jaap Korteweg kan worden omschreven als ondernemer, maar ook als boer, pionier en idealist. Met de Vegetarische Slager werd hij bekend bij het grote publiek. Maar dat bedrijf in vleesvervangers verkocht hij aan Unilever. Nu wil hij met zijn nieuwe bedrijf Those Vegan Cowboys kaas maken die smaakt en smelt als gewone kaas, maar waar geen koe aan te pas komt.

In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I speak with Jane Ostler from Kantar, the world's leading marketing data and analytics company, whose clients include Google, Diageo, AB InBev, Unilever, and Kraft Heinz. Jane brings clarity to a debate often clouded by headlines, explaining why AI should be seen as a creative sparring partner, not a rival. She outlines how Kantar is helping brands balance efficiency with inspiration, and why the best marketing in the years ahead will come from humans and machines working together. We explore Kantar's research into how marketers really feel about AI adoption, uncovering why so many projects stall in pilot phase, and what steps can help teams move from experimentation to execution. Jane also discusses the importance of data quality as the foundation of effective AI, drawing comparisons to the early days of GDPR when oversight and governance first became front of mind. From Coca-Cola's AI-assisted Christmas ads to predictive analytics that help brands allocate budgets with greater confidence, Jane shares examples of where AI is already shaping marketing in ways that might surprise you. She also highlights the importance of cultural nuance in AI-driven campaigns across 90-plus markets, and why transparency, explainability, and human oversight are vital for earning consumer trust. Whether you're a CMO weighing AI strategy, a brand manager experimenting with new tools, or someone curious about how the biggest advertisers are reshaping their playbooks, this conversation with Jane Ostler offers both inspiration and practical guidance. It's about rethinking AI not as the end of creativity, but as the beginning of a new partnership between data, machines, and human imagination.

The beauty industry had an eventful summer marked by changing retailer strategies, stark revenue tumbles and a flurry of pricey acquisitions.  In this special episode of The Glossy Beauty Podcast, reporters Lexy Lebsack, Emily Jensen and Sara Spruch-Feiner walk through the stories that defined the season.  This includes strategy shifts within retailers like Sephora, Ulta Beauty and Target, plus a look at disappointing revenue at conglomerates Shiseido and Estée Lauder Companies. The team also discusses the biggest acquisitions of the season — including Rhode, Dr. Squatch, Space NK and Touchland — and the tariff-related topics we're watching as fall approaches.  To start (0:53), Glossy's beauty team digs into the industry's biggest summer investments, led by E.l.f. Beauty's May purchase of Hailey Bieber's Rhode for $1 billion. The team also walks through CPG company Church & Dwight's $700 million purchase of trendy hand sanitizer brand Touchland in May and Unilever's June purchase of digitally-native men's care brand Dr. Squatch for $1.5 billion.   Beauty's top specialty retailers also had big summers. Sephora (8:37) is leaning deeper into a tried-and-true brand launch playbook: the celebrity artist. In the past few weeks, the retailer has rolled out new lines from celebrity makeup artists Hung Vanngo and Mary Phillips, plus hairstylist Chris McMillian.  Meanwhile, Ulta Beauty (18:17) had a whirlwind summer as new CEO Kecia Steelman executed her “Ulta Unleashed” comeback plan. Steelman, who was appointed CEO in January after more than a decade with the company, announced her plan in March as a response to the company's 1.9% year-over-year holiday sales tumble. Glossy's team unpacks all the changes, including the acquisition of U.K. retailer Space NK, international expansion into Mexico and the Middle East, and the end of Ulta's shop-in-shop with Target.  Finally (25:37), Glossy's team walks through can't-miss beauty conglomerate news: LVMH's splashy Louis Vuitton Beauté launch and Shiseido's sales tumble caused by Drunk Elephant's poor performance, plus turbulence at Waldencast and Estée Lauder Companies. Finally (36:27), team Glossy ends with a few autumn tariff predictions.

Geoff poses the bold question: what if (like going on a run or eating a healthy meal) work genuinely enhanced your life? Reflecting on the evolution of his thinking around workplace wellbeing, Geoff champions the idea that organisations must create cultures where people feel safe, energised, and able to thrive. He shares how the pandemic sparked wider recognition of HR's role in wellbeing and how energy - fuelled by health and purpose - should sit at the heart of business strategy. Geoff challenges the current approach to wellbeing, questioning the impact of surface-level initiatives without addressing deeper cultural and structural issues. He calls for a shift from doing wellbeing to employees, to embedding it in an organisation - in leadership, systems and everyday practices. He highlights how short-term business pressures, outdated success measures and fear in the C-suite all contribute to wellbeing being undervalued. As a practical step, Geoff suggests integrating wellbeing into development conversations - asking how people are doing physically, mentally and emotionally. He encourages HR leaders to think beyond wellbeing and to consider colleagues' energy - and to recognise that the energy of an organisation's people is its most valuable asset.

Episode 100: What started as a passion project has turned into a full career pivot!Four years ago, I hit record on the first episode of my podcast.I had no big plans. Just one question I couldn't stop thinking about:How do we live a good life?So I started How to Live.Shared what I'd learned.Stayed curious.Kept listening.Then something magical happened.I got a message from my old BCG boss, Dean Tong.We hadn't spoken in 15 years.He'd stumbled upon the podcast. We met.Talked about Stoicism, Buddhism, and Purpose.Then he invited me to speak at UOB Bank, where he was the Chief HR Officer.I was nervous. It was a corporate setting.I had a meditation exercise planned. Would it land?Dean said:“Don't worry. I'll take the risk. Just do your best.”That support changed everything.The talk worked.It led to more sessions. More companies.And one day I realised - this wasn't a side project anymore.It was a new path.Keynotes. Workshops. Leadership Programs.Helping leaders reconnect with purpose, reach their next peak, and navigate uncertainty with resilience.It felt meaningful.And it could pay the bills.So I took the leap.Sold my digital agency. Went all in.Today, I've led over 75 workshops across four continents with companies like Google, Unilever, HSBC, and Mastercard.And I've seen how powerful ancient wisdom can be in modern leadership.The podcast has grown beyond my wildest dreams too. Ranked in the top 3% globally and listened to in 150 countries.The lesson?When you do what you love with honesty and passion, it's infectious.People are watching. People are listening, even if they never like or comment.(Dean didn't either.)But sometimes, just one of them can change the trajectory of your entire life.

De zin en onzin van sancties De Tweede Kamer kwam deze week terug van haar reces voor een debat over Gaza. Sancties op Europees niveau laten op zich wachten, maar wat kan het kabinet doen om Israël tot een andere koers te bewegen? Te gast bij dr Kelder en Co is mr. Heleen over de Linden, advocaat en sanctierechtexpert. Is Nederland juridisch gezien verplicht om in te grijpen? Ook maken we de vergelijking met Rusland, waar inmiddels het achttiende sanctiepakket van kracht is. Hoe effectief zijn deze gebleken? Unilever verkocht haar Russische tak voor de helft van de waarde, Heineken deed de zijne weg voor 1 euro - wie heeft daar nu eigenlijk baat bij? Hebben wij de Russen kunnen raken waar het pijn doet? U hoort het in Dr Kelder en Co. Vliegen: het nieuwe tabak? Terwijl de technische universiteiten druk bezig zijn met groene brandstof en elektrische motoren, blijft de uitstoot harder groeien dan innovatie kan bijbenen, aldus jonge dr. Yannick van den Berg. De rechtsgeleerde promoveerde recent aan de Universiteit van Amsterdam en onderzocht hoe Europese regels ons vlieggedrag zouden kunnen inperken. Meer dan de helft van alle luchtvaartuitstoot komt van slechts 6% van de lange intercontinentale vluchten. Tegelijkertijd vliegt de helft van alle Nederlanders niet, terwijl 13% drie keer per jaar of vaker het vliegtuig pakt. Van den Berg vindt daarom dat we vliegen moeten gaan behandelen als tabak: niet verbieden maar wel de norm veranderen. Geen reclames in bushokjes voor all-inclusives en wat vaker met de trein op vakantie. Geen leuke boodschap, maar iemand moet het doen, en dus vertelt van den Berg erover in de uitzending. 25 individuele muizenlevens Ze helpen medicijnen en kennis voor mensen ontwikkelen en krijgen daar pijn, verveling en een vroegtijdige dood voor terug. Dat is het leven van een labmuis. Filosoof dr. Eva Meijer gaf 25 van deze voormalig werknemertjes een pensioen bij haar in huis, en leerde ze steeds beter kennen. Zo zag ze dat muizen niet graag over elkaars staart heen lopen, die leggen ze met hun handen eerst opzij. Ze houden zich bezig met de inrichting van hun huis, sluiten vriendschappen en zorgen voor elkaar. De ene muis meer dan de ander, want ‘De Muis' bestaat niet. En ze zag: zo lang we met de bril van de mens naar dieren kijken, zullen mensen dieren nooit écht begrijpen. In dr Kelder en Co vertelt Meijer over de bevindingen van haar onderzoek. Plus een belletje met VOLT-lijsttrekker Laurens Dassen, die werkt aan een initiatiefwet die Israël een andere koers moeten doen varen.

After falling in love with the gelato shops of Buenos Aires, Josh Hochschuler came home to Dallas with a bold idea: bring authentic Argentine gelato to the U.S. He raised $600,000 from friends and family and opened a gelato shop called Talenti. The product was a hit - but the retail model wasn't. Faced with mounting losses, Josh shut down the store and moved into a warehouse to pivot to wholesale. With time, tenacity, and a now-iconic clear jar, Talenti became a national sensation, and in 2014, was acquired by Unilever. Today, it's the best-selling gelato brand in America.This episode was produced by Casey Herman and edited by Kevin Leahy, with research by Kerry Thompson and music by Ramtin Arablouei.
