- Meet the Founder Aiming to Get “Medical-Grade” Jewelry for Sensitive Skin into Sephora Aisles. Plus! No-Fail Outfit Formulas From the TikTok Expert
This week, we’re welcoming Jackie Burke, founder of safe-for-sensitive ears jewelry brand, Tini Lux. Jackie left a career in engineering to found Tini Lux after years of frustration with so-called “hypoallergenic” earrings that failed to live up to their promise. Now, the style-whiz entrepreneur is making the case for medical-grade titanium earrings to live alongside beauty products in the aisles of Sephora. This uninterrupted conversation is brought to you by TiniLux. You’ll discover: * The reason that Jackie is on a mission to get Tini Lux recognized as a skincare-adjacent brand, making her non-irritating earrings available where you buy your beauty staples * The “fine jewelry myth” – why 24-carat gold and sterling silver earrings aren’t the “gold standard” in skin-compatibility that you may think, according to the jewelry innovator * Why she believes that ‘hypoallergenic’ is an empty marketing buzzword in the jewelry industry * Hack alert! Should you apply petroleum jelly to your studs before putting on earrings? The pro weighs in * Plot twist – Why Jackie has gained a cult-like following on TikTok, where her Outfit Formula videos deconstruct the secret to perfect ‘fits using clever style math PROMO CODE: Visit www.tinilux.com and use code BEAUTY for 20% off your first purchase.

- “Ten Toes Down” and Self-Care as Resistance: Meet The Influencer Who Can Make – or Break – a Beauty Brand Right Now, Golloria George
Today we’re chatting with Texas-based, 23-year-old beauty creator Golloria George. Named People Magazine’s Beauty Creator of the Year and Forbes’ 30 under 30 last year, Golloria has amassed 3.2 million followers on TikTok, where she swatches the darkest shade of makeup on her South Sudanese complexion – revealing a lack of shade range in plain site in her viral videos that hold the industry accountable. (Most famously, Youthforia’s “‘tar in a bottle” blunder had retailers pulling the brand from store shelves). Tune in as Golloria gets candid about her upbringing before rising to beauty fame, sharing the insightful learnings she’s earned along the way to power-ranking status. You’ll discover: * The backstory behind the Youthforia debacle, including how the brand reacted behind the scenes, and the prelude that added fuel to the fire * What makes Golloria want to consult for a brand, and what has her turning some companies away * What led to Golloria’s social media hiatus, and how she came back with a whole new attitude * What the influencer community’s wage gap is really like * Everything she’s loving in her own beauty cabinet, from her ride or die foundation, bronzer, sunscreen, and the perfumes that get her the most compliments * The cosmetics brand that she feels still excludes people of colour, in spite of internet protests * The creators she co-signs, New York girlies included For any products or links mentioned in this episode, check out our website: https://breakingbeautypodcast.com/episode-recaps/ Related episodes like this: * Jackie Aina on Diversity in Beauty * Skincare Founder, Rhode Consultant and Cosmetic Chemist Ron Robinson * Meet the TikTok Famous Content Creator Who’s Single-Handedly Making Beauty Products Go Viral, Mikayla Nogueira PROMO CODES: When you support our sponsors, you support the creation of Breaking Beauty Podcast!
