Welcome to the Lounge: Dr. Sheila Nazarian Star of Netflix Skin Decision

Step inside the world of Dr. Sheila Nazarian; Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, Emmy nominated host of Netflix's Skin Decision and "Small Breast Queen!"

Known for her artistry with the scalpel and giving patients the most natural results possible, we got to hear what it was like to jump into a male dominated world as a female plastic surgeon who had a lot to say and a unique way to say it.

From documenting surgeries and being among the first to post YouTube videos explaining things like the difference between a mini tummy tuck and a full tummy tuck, and being invited onto programs like E! News, The Real, The Doctors, Inside Edition and so many more, the journey to having her own show on Netflix was quite the adventure for Dr. Nazarian!

But she is so much more than a reality TV star. A skilled surgeon and brilliant business woman - over the course of her career transforming her patient's lives, she has discovered the power of funneling down to what matters most: surrounding herself with the people, patients, surgeries and experiences that fulfill and uplift her.

And we are not done seeing her on our screens yet! With new show ideas coming, we cannot wait to see what Dr. Sheila Nazarian comes out with to film next!

From Regenerative Medicine to Skincare Phenomenon: Hydrinity Is Taking The Beauty Industry By Storm!

In this episode of The Glow Up Lounge podcast, Briana Christine and Teresa Collins get into a deep dive conversation with Angel Porter, national sales director for the new kid in the beauty industry town: Hydrinity! Known for it's tagline: accelerated skin science, it takes that motto seriously! In a matter of 15 short months it has become the GO TO for healing hydration in the med spa world. Ask any skincare influencer or celebrity esthetician: Hydrinity is what you want in your treatment room.

And it's not just buzz wordery! Hydrinity backs up their talk with legit before and afters that show incredible results that real clients are achieving in a matter of days! Hydrinity itself has clinicals to back up it's claim that two products, two times a day, with two pumps for two weeks will dramatically improve your skin.

Now THAT is definitely something worth talking about!

They came in hot with a lineup of 5 finishing products:
• Renewing HA Serum with PPM6 Technology, Anti Aging Hydrator
• Restorative HA Serum with PPM6 Technology, Healing Hydrator
• Hyacyn Active Purifying Mist
• Eye Renew Complex Hydrating Eye Serum
• Vivid Brightening Serum

And this week they launched a sixth product that is already landing like a rocket and is flying off the shelves of Hydrinity's partners.
• Restorative HA+ Mask

A sheet mask with enough serum to complete a body treatment, should you wish! It's like an IV hydration treatment for your skin, and we get to learn all about it in this episode.

Not only that, but we get a little tease of what's to come for Hydrinity in 2024 - as well as a deep education of exactly what makes Hydrinity SO uniquely special and sought after. It's their patented technology and hyaluronic acids that truly make these products stand out in a way that no other medical grade skincare product has before - that will change your skin in two weeks and give you a smooth, rejuvenated glass skin GLOW.

Discover along with Briana Christine and Teresa Collins why Hydrinity is so special, and laugh along with them and Angel. It's truly a conversation that feels like you are in the room, having brunch with a group of girlfriends!

How To Build An Empire In The Beauty Industry with Irena Azaraev

We had the immense pleasure of bringing Irena Azaraev, co-founder of BYou Laser Clinics, into The Glow Up Lounge for a fantastic conversation about how she found a way to stand out in a saturated beauty industry.

She tells us her story of immigrating to the US with a plan and goal to create a business that empowers and builds confidence in others, and found her way to do so by starting BYou Laser Clinics in downtown Brooklyn - where she could invite people from all walks of life into her space and welcome them to her medical spa. She prides herself on being LGBTQIA+ affirming, and focuses on being inclusive and diverse by having the best FDA approved laser devices available that can treat skin of all colors.

With a motto like "Be you and OWN it" it's no wonder she has found a clientele that resonates so deeply with her message and her incredible team of medical aesthetics providers who care so deeply about living the motto, and providing a safe space to allow their clients to be themselves and find their confidence to own it.

Be sure to subscribe to the show and leave us a review! We'd love the feedback and to hear what you'd like to learn about next in the world of beauty and aesthetics!

Pretty Privilege: The Perks and The Perils

Have you ever stopped to question the power of pretty privilege? How it invisibly weaves itself through the tapestry of our daily interactions, creating advantages, discomfort, and everything in between? Sit down with us and our guest, Taylor Card, as we shine a light on this intangible phenomenon, reflecting on personal experiences of feeling 'unattractive' and the winding path towards self-confidence.

We share our thoughts on the societal pressures around beauty and aging, and underline the importance of self-love. As we challenge the narrative around aging, we invite you to join us in championing the power of investing in oneself and making mental health a priority.

In the final leg of our journey, we consider the generational consequences of privilege. We reflect on the societal shifts that have begun breaking harmful cycles, and take a look at the rise of different types of people in popular media. With the advent and ubiquity of social media, a platform has been created for stories to be shared, journeys to be told. Tune in, as together, we celebrate the power of self-love and making personal journeys a priority. This episode promises an intimate exploration of self-image, and a hearty conversation on the multifaceted concept of pretty privilege. It's a dialogue about us, about you, about the world we live in - a world that's changing every day. Join us in the conversation, won't you?
