On this episode of the Friends in Beauty podcast I welcome the CEO of Glamazon Beauty, Kim Baker, to the Friends in Beauty guest chair! Kim Baker is a New York-based commercial makeup artist and former Wilhelmina Model who specializes in working with celebrities and models. Kim's unique background and approach to beauty is what sets her apart from her peers. For 20 years, Kim was in front of the camera, beginning as a size 4 model and then in the early 90s became what was considered one of the pioneers in the plus size industry. During that time, Kim was influenced by some of the best makeup artists in the industry - Fran Cooper, Reggie Wells, Quietfire, Kevyn Aucoin and Paul Star. Her very first makeup artist, at age 13, was the legend Way Bandy. In 2006, Kim received her big break - working for Hollywood A-Lister Tom Cruise and actor Ving Rahmes for the Mission Impossible movie press junket. And the rest is history ... working with everyone from NASCAR driver Danica Patrick, songstress Toni Braxton and singer John Legend to actress Dakota Fanning and radio personality Angela Yee, to name a few, as well as on the countless TV shows including America's Next Top Model. Today, Kim has turned her passion for beauty into working with everyday women and has created a cosmetics line, Glamazon Beauty, to enhance that "special something" she believes everyone has that makes them beautiful - her favorite feature, their personality. In this interview Kim shares: -A glimpse into her journey from model, makeup artist, and brand owner -An experience with discrimination as a model that made led to her to pursue makeup artistry -What it was like work with Bobbi Brown in the beginning -The start and evolution of Glamazon Beauty -The importance of advocating for yourself -Advice on starting and funding your beauty brand -How she has built and leveraged relationships in the industry over the years -What's next for the brand and so much more Enjoy this episode!

Stop idolizing skinny people on the internet. In this episode, Kim is joined by former Wilhelmina Model, Marta Montana, for a look inside the world of Body Dysmorphia. From counting calories to counting the hours between meals, Marta battled with a toxic fixation on her silhouette. When she started earning a living from the image in the mirror, her fixation took a dark turn. She was left alone and obsessed with a narcissistic view of "Self-Love," which she believed to be superficial and always out of touch. Women, by and large, have a complicated relationship with food and eating disorders. Marta unpacks how to get rid of the dangerous vision boarding, the Instagram point system, and superficial accolades. From being stuck in her reflection to starting a 501c3 to connect women struggling with body image, Marta wants girls to write down their pain points and work through them. Kim's biggest takeaway?

“I woke up in the hospital…my stomach was…bleeding. My heart had shut off. But a few days later I drank again.” —Charlotte on the tenacity of denial in addiction. On day one of her sobriety—originally a planned 90-day detox challenge—Charlotte had the foresight to document the clarity and anxiety of that momentous occasion. Now, just over 2 years later, she has a dedicated following of what have become infectiously exuberant recovery updates. Charlotte is a professional makeup artist and beauty writer in Derry, Ireland whose experience as a plus-size Wilhelmina Model in NYC led her to question, “What is beauty?” The self-acceptance and self-love that she’s found in the answer has inspired her to work to inspire other women to feel beautiful and confident as a whole person not only for what‘s on the outside.
