Our Interview With Selena Gomez: How the...

KIRBIE JOHNSON AND SARA TAN
About this episode

Major pod moment: Selena Gomez is on the podcast! Should we leave it at that? The artist, producer and brand founder chats with us about what she wanted Rare Beauty to embody, her nerves about launching the brand, how working in entertainment affected her self-esteem, why she cut social media from her life, and of course her favorite product. Plus, she shares her favorite skincare must-have (it's Gloss Angeles-approved, we love to see it), her thoughts on astrology, and the two women she looks to as beauty icons.


Before the interview, we chat about the brand and our thoughts from an editor perspective and of course what to pick up from the line. You can get the entire Rare Beauty product breakdown on our website, including who we think each sku is good for. glossangelespod.com


Rare Beauty launches exclusively at Sephora and RareBeauty.com on September 3rd.
