Gloss Angeles

Legendary makeup artist and Westman Atelier founder Gucci Westman joins us to discuss the art of making someone look like the best version of themselves—and her ability to completely transform a face. Gucci shares stories from working with Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Aniston, Cameron Diaz and Julianne Moore; reveals the makeup mistake she frequently sees women make as they get older; and explains how our routines should evolve as our faces change. She also takes us inside the making of Westman Atelier, including the licensing deal she walked away from, the foundation launch she canceled at the last minute and the thousands of formula iterations that followed. Plus, Gucci confirms whether she was the impossibly glamorous makeup-artist neighbor at the center of that viral essay.

Thousands of products enter Allure’s Best of Beauty Awards. So how does the team decide which ones deserve that little red seal? For the awards’ 30th anniversary, we’re joined by Allure editor-in-chief Jessica Cruel to go inside the testing and deliberations, find out how new launches compete with longtime favorites, and clear up whether a brand can pay to win. We also look at how the awards have evolved over three decades—and what this year’s winners reveal about beauty now. And you can attend to see some of those products in action at Best of Beauty Live in October—more details here.

After 26 seasons on Dancing with the Stars, Cheryl Burke is figuring out what beauty means when spray tans, stage makeup and television lighting no longer dictate the look. The two-time Mirrorball champion joins us to discuss her extensive DWTS beauty routine, reconnecting with her natural skin tone and Filipino identity, and the scrutiny women face when their appearance changes after fame. We also get into her life on the Sephora Squad and the DWTS questions we’ve always wanted to ask: who controls the costumes, how partners are paired, and how injured everyone is by the finale.

Tabitha Brown has built an empire by being unapologetically herself, from her career as an Emmy-winning host and author to becoming the founder of two beauty brands. She joins us for a candid conversation about what happened to Black-owned brands after Target rolled back its DEI initiatives—and why she ultimately chose not to renew her contract with the retailer. We also get into the story behind Donna’s Recipe, her natural hair journey, the inspiration behind her Tab & Chance fragrances, and the very personal reason supporting ALS research remains so important to her.
