This is the Art Beauty podcast where weare always reaching for truth in beauty.
Remember, the people in the brandsare not paying to be here,
so we get to have those true conversationbecause you deserve to be informed
so you can make the best choicesfor yourself.
With that said, I'm Amber Milt and today
my fabulous co-host is Ryan Nickulas.
(00:22):
For those of you who have been heresince the beginning, you know that
he and I started this together and, today
there is a very special announcement
because this will be our final podcast.
So there is nobody else I couldwrap this up with but you, my love.
(00:44):
thank you for being here today.
just awesome to have you back.
Thank you for having me.
I absolutely when you
when you shot me the text, it was likeI teared up.
It was. Yeah.
It, it was it's been a journey.
And you've taken the batonand you've ran so far with this puppy.
Holy moly.
(01:05):
What is the total number of calls?
This is 283.
And here's some fun numbers.
over 140,000 episode listeners.
just on, just on like the audio side,
not including everything from YouTubeand all of those views.
(01:27):
but, I mean, it's it's such an honor.
And for everybodywho has been with us from the beginning
or maybe through midway,thank you for listening.
it was not an easy decision,but I am changing my job.
I'm going to be going full timein-house with Laura
(01:48):
Geller and her brand and just
wouldn'thave the time, unfortunately, to do this.
But that's what I like.
I want to say goodbyebecause you never know.
You never know. Oh, it could be.
See you soon.
It could be a. Recent. Person.It could be.
You know, I'm just so excited tofollow you on TikTok and all your socials
(02:09):
to see what's next for you, because, wow,the shift has already begun.
But yeah, but you know,this has been such a journey.
And, you know, it's funny,I was laughing to myself today.
I was like, well,maybe the idea of starting a podcast
that wasn't sponsored,that brings in no income, like,
might not have been the best businessdecision, however,
(02:31):
really, I feel like youand I started this out of passion, wanting
to bring information to people that wasn'tlike, hey, here's brands on here.
They're paying to tell youwhat they want to hear.
But it gave brands like a platformto actually talk about the products.
and we did really feature stuff we liked.
Right. So I felt like that was honest.
and then there's been some episodeswhere people have come on and been like,
(02:53):
you know, where I've said,
hey, you're a social mediasays that this product
doesn'twork, and brands really owned up to that.
I thought that was really special,but probably from the get
go of like doingthis is like an unsponsored, unpaid thing.
But you remember our first tagline.
Oh, the real truthabout the fake shit factory.
I mean, I thought we could talk aboutsome of the day, like some of our
(03:15):
our show has been so like it's gonethrough an evolution.
For sure.
Like I said, you really took the batonand you ran with this puppy, and,
you know, after Covid, after it,every all the dust had settled,
so to speak, and your career shiftedand you knew exactly what you wanted.
You knew exactlywhere you needed it to go.
And it was so fun to become a fan
(03:38):
again of the showand become a fan of you and
and watch how you shifted and changedand you did such an amazing job.
and, you know, not to bring it back,
but I remember walking in WashingtonSquare Park
where, I mean,I was harassed to drag in a suitcase
because I was coming up from DCand you going, like,
(03:58):
I think we can do it.
And we had just left a doctor'soffice and shot, like, you know,
just a quick Botox video that, like,we just had no idea where it would go.
And you. Hi. Hats off to you.
I'm just this little,you know, I'm not going to blow
smoke up your ass too much, but I have tojust say, you really do have.
You must be proud of yourself.
(04:19):
You have to just smell your own flowersfor a second, because you really, truly.
You were ten toes down with this puppyfrom day one, and you didn't see it
any other way, regardless of businessor regardless of opinions.
And regardless,
you have to be proud of yourselfbecause I am very proud of you.
I know the listeners are veryproud of you. The brands are proud of you.
You've opened quite a few doorsfor quite a few people and all right,
(04:40):
that's enough smoke blowing.But it's true.
It's it's it all stemmed from one idea.
Yeah. You know thank you.
But like also don'tdon't discount yourself there
because I had a lot of my guyfriends who have zero interest.
I mean, listen,
a lot of my guy friends actually do havea lot of interest in skincare.
But then there were the fewthat were like,
I don't really care about this,but I love listening
(05:02):
to Ryanbecause he's so damn fun and funny.
And I was like,I know, I know, he's the best.
You had.
a lot of people don't know this about you.
The podcast thing, like couldn’thadn't quite taken off yet.
Right?
People were kind of dippingand doing a little bit,
you know, like millionaireswere throwing money at it.
They were trying to seeif they could make money.
(05:22):
And you had been a guest on a podcast
and they instantly, like, were like,you're going to be great.
We want to take you and like, remix you.
And you were like, right,what do you think?
And I was like, well, I think you needto find a partner in crime.
And I told you exactly what I thought
that partner in crime needed to be,what she needed to be for you.
(05:43):
And then you turned aroundand looked in the mirror.
We were doing your hairat the time at the salon.
You went well? Yeah. She's you
and I want you.
I never saw that coming.
but you were right.
And it was a perfect jump off of an idea.
And, you know,the beautiful thing about friendship is.
And I love that we,you know, you know, it wasn't always easy.
(06:05):
You know, you can't always.
It's tough to, like,start a project with a friend, right?
And you never, like.You see how I work? You see how you work.
We're so polar opposites that.
Thank you for dealing with me.
and then, you know, boom.
We went into a pandemic. Yeah.
And I watched one of our old episodesthis morning,
and I was like,oh, are we grasping at straws or what?
(06:27):
Which episode was it?
And like, do you have any favorites?I have a few favorites.
I mean, we jumped on zoom before zoom.
Zoom. Do you remember.
Can we just for a minute because noweverybody like zoom is like but
but the first hour or so,we used to book out like an hour
and 20 minutes for each guest,
because the first 20 minuteswould be like, no, no, no,
(06:48):
to see that little buttonthat looks like a camera.
Okay. No no no. Turn that.
No, no. Okay. Now, now. Okay.
No, but you got to turn your camera facingyou and, Okay.
No, it was a nightmare.
now it's gotten so easy.
So in some ways,Covid was the best thing to happen.
Production wise, because everybody got it.
Everybody got it real quick.
some of the fake
(07:09):
it time, because
it made us really dig deep into our gut,
really be authentic.
It really was the real truth about,you know, the crazy shit.
And, you know, we were talking aboutdropping off single process hair color
to my clients at the doorand social distancing, and
and you were talking about,
melting off your own gel off your nails,and, like, you were so proud of yourself
(07:34):
because we were like, okay,we can't be the only people freaking out.
And like, all right, well, you're
no one's getting a fill-inand no one's going the nail salon.
And we really did.
We ralliedand we just kind of kept the conversation
as light as we could during that time.
And I think we, we,you know, with our audiences reaction
and our and their suggestions,I think we, we really, truly did our best.
And it I mean, it helped ushelp me stay sane in that process.
(07:58):
Do you remember each other?
Do you rememberwhen we got the Halo laser?
So when Ryan and I first started,
if you haven't gone back to the
early episodes, like we would meet doctorsat their offices, set up our mikes,
do this before it was remote and like,try a product to try something out.
The halo laser.
(08:20):
All I remember iswe we were, very professional
and we did the interview
after we got the laser,and that was probably about 30 minutes.
And then you and I get,
we pack up all our stuff,then we get in the Uber, and I look at you
and I go, oh my God, my face is on fire.
I I had had plastic surgery,I had had hair transplant,
I had done some stuff to myself.
(08:42):
But that halo laser hit all of a suddenI was like, are we going to make it home?
Like, I,
where do we come back to my office.
I just remember being like,with like, ice packs on my face.
Yeah.
And then the days after,
the days after we your skin just starts
melting off and like,you had an event to go to.
(09:04):
I went into work and the girl was like,please remove like, don't
get anywhere near my coffee cupbecause I'm worried your face is literally
going to flake off into it. Exactly.
We were so vain.
I don't think we knew how vainwe really were,
because all of a suddenwe became like a version of the mask
and we were, like, embarrassed and,like, subconscious.
(09:25):
And I was like, no, Amber, take deep.
I think people with like, acne may feelI was trying to get us to like,
bring it back home,but at the end of the day,
I mean, it was a fabulous treatment.
It was very expensive,but I could never have guessed
what it would have done to us emotionallyand mentally because nobody took.
That's not in any pamphlet,but we got to talk about it.
(09:47):
I liked it, and I thinkthat there is a certain person for it.
So like maybeif you have like real textural issues,
for me, that amount of downtime, look,our skin was glowing,
we got the glow,but it's was like legit five days of like,
I can't really make planslike I've got to.
I would be on the subway going to workand just
(10:07):
you could see people staring at me like,what is wrong with that girl?
Like,what's going on over there with that?
Yes, I rememberyou going through that now.
We lived two different lifestyles, right?
Like five days for me.I can sit on my head in the corner, right?
I could make mac and cheese and,like, swing the kids.
You're like, five days.
Oh my God, dude.
New York City snob. You I love you.
(10:29):
I'm like five days. That is nothing.
Give me the glow again.
Well, but, like,if I had the time off, like,
when I did my breast lift,that was the best week.
I mean, part of that makes me
want to do more plastic surgeryjust to have the week off.
Like I laid in bed.
I watch TV, you know?
I mean, it was just
it was like a mini vacation, in some ways,which is kind of sick to say.
(10:51):
However, some of these procedureswhere you're like,
shoot, like,I didn't plan for this correctly and,
I haveto go out and interact with the world.
It's not great.
No, no, no, no, I hear you.
What else?
Let's see.
And, you know, the crazy thing is,
I was looking back and trying to guessthe number of guests we've had.
(11:14):
It's a little bit harder without me
having to count, but, like,it has to be well over 250.
We've had some repeats,
but then there've been some episodeswhere there's like two guests on room,
so it's just insane to think about
all of the information.
Information products I still use today.
the, the masks from,
(11:36):
they're like, he is a hear me roar.
Oh, yeah.
You love you love those.
I loved those masks.
and I and and the woman who created,
That took away the Dallas hair.
She was awesome. What was her?What was she.
Dara, with,
the woman that was the.
Well, wait,there was two. So I'm just trying.
(11:58):
Remember,there was one that had the electric
or there was onethat was just a straight razor.
So there was. Yeah.
So I believe it was the.
Like the electric, I think.
I think it was electric.
Yeah. User very easy. Friendly.
Oh my gosh.
I think derma slash camouflage.
Derma flash. Yes.
We sat in that interview and I waswe laughed at NASA.
(12:20):
I was like, we we're doing stuff.
These are like, this is the real deal.
and then, you know, the rest was history.
After that.
I left it and I was like, Ryan,why did you not tell me that?
I was like,basically like a bear on my face?
Because when you take it off,it's the amount of hair.
And I'll tell you,of all of the many procedures
(12:43):
and things that I have done and tried,
dermaplaning, which is removing the face,is something I still do every week.
I have now sent advancedfrom the derma flash, which is so fabulous
because it is so user friendly to,now using Stack Skincare.
They were another guestI think I had on after.
(13:04):
after you were not with the show,they did.
it's a straight razor.
It is literally you are taking a straightrazor to your face.
But man,I feel like if you are not dermaplaning,
you're missing out.
Something.
It's something worth trying for sure for.
Even if you don't wear makeup,even if you've never had it done.
(13:26):
It's it's it's a huge change,a huge after, so to speak.
You know, it's just your makeupgoes on smooth because you have no hair.
And then people would be like, itdevelops hair grow back thicker.
It doesn't. By the way,I've talked to many doctors.
It will not grow back thicker.
But you know, it's differentfor me than for you
because you've been shaving or notshaving for years of your life, right?
(13:46):
Like so you're getting that sameeffect without having to,
like like you shave, right?
So, like, I look at my husband, he shavesevery day and I'm like, every day.
So now I'm like, I'm.
I'm doing my lady shaving, too.
What was the favorite,
you know, fan email or or.
(14:09):
Thank you.
You got to say is thatdoes that ring anything for you?
Because I have one note. Well, you.
Well, well,first of all, shout out to my mother
who has watched every single episode,who comments on YouTube on everything.
No, it's like.
Honestly. So special.
and my dad too, who's listened to many,many of them, but my mom
(14:31):
listens to everyone comments and everyone.
So biggest fan.
I'm so lucky to you knowyou know that's to still have her ear.
I just a shout out to mama.
Love it.
How about you?
What do you remember?
Oh wait you're freezing.
(14:51):
Oh my gosh.
And you're freezing on a facethat you are not going to be pleased with
what is going on with the streaming today.
Be there.
Hold on. I.
Can you hear me now?
I can, I can.
the young woman who lost all the weight
and, Yes.
(15:13):
And she came on our showand she had a phenomenal story.
She lost to, I think well over 100 pounds.
And she did.
She started the conversationabout the lift for you,
and it was her story that just flooded uswith different, so just for fan base,
emails and questionsand it just was it was she was an amazing,
(15:35):
I guess she had an amazing domino effecton, on on a lot of our listeners.
Right?
She, she, she moved a lot of peopleand changed a lot of lives, so to speak.
That was cool.
I mean, we've covered the gamutfrom so many things, from fashion
with the style guysto doctors to personal people come on,
talking about everything from hair lossto weight loss, tuberous breasts.
(15:59):
Right. You know, that was going on, right.
And just a lot. And you're right.
We're so lucky to have.
And then the, the, the doctorwho did all the breast augmentation
for the women who he rebuilt their breastsafter breast cancer, I mean, did
we did the book launch, and I just sentthat book to a friend of mine's friend
who went through that, and she wrote methe most beautiful thank you, like,
(16:20):
two months ago, because it justit was a huge tool for her to heal
and to listen to other the,the other women's stories.
And I was like,oh yeah, Amber and I did that.
We did that.
And we went to that launchand that was really awesome.
Just so cool.
since
we started, like,what are some of the other, you know,
you mentioned that, hear me roar productslike what are some of the things
(16:43):
and maybe like
if you don't mention like the procedures,like you stayed in it, you know,
like,what are some of the things that you're,
like, loving or maybe that we haven'tfeatured on the show that you're like,
you got to check this out. So.
Well, I've always saidthat we needed to do a quick,
oh, I should have brought my blog.
(17:08):
I always said we should have donea penile enhancement,
episode.
And it's just.
And even at the small few yearsthat we've, but together on this platform,
and you've taken it and it's just come,you know, it's it's come very far.
all the boys are doing it.
(17:29):
I mean, if you can have your boobs done,why can't the boys have their their friend
done?
I think it's, you know, we'll leave itthere.
there.
All fair.
but one of my favorites,favorite favorites of all time,
I think, was when we did I got you to DCand Maryland and we and we and Virginia.
(17:50):
You did the DMV tour with meand, Doctor Miriam. Nas.
Yeah.
Who was hands down
one of my most favorite facial ocular,ocular facial plastic surgeons.
I mean, she can operate on baby's eyelids.
Yeah.
and she did the best under-eye fillerI've ever had in my life, and I'm.
I need to book a flight to go see her
(18:11):
because I'm no longer there.
Isn't not the thing that's, like,crazy to, like some of the doctors.
I'm like, I want to come, you know,because we've interviewed
from all over the country and I'm like,I need to come out to see
you because you're so good.
undercover.
Do you remember we did the, the cryofreezing thing?
My first and only time.
I swear, I still have the videoson, like, I'm blunt.
(18:32):
Delete them.
Do you still do that?
I do, You know.
I love things that are naturaland who that boost
endorphins for my,you know, my own mental health sake.
I think that because of, the show, like,
I tell my open my eyesand try different things.
I am such a huge fan of of.
(18:53):
I'm in, like, down in the dumps,like it's rained a couple days here.
I will go jump and cry out and it's you.
It's like amazing.
And I love.
We. What do you love?
Shoot.
Why is technology not working for ustoday?
(19:15):
Come back! There you are.
You're there.
Wait! I can't hear you now.
B12 shots that I do twice a B12.
Okay, B12.
Oh, twice a week.
Or twice a week.
I love B12,it's an amazing boost for energy.
It burns fat.
I recently lost, like, 15 pounds again.
(19:36):
you know, I, Okay.
And a little m sculpt, whichwe got to help launch to remember that.
Yeah.
sculpt was it was,I mean, well, but, like,
super effective on you because you don'thave the body fat on top of your stomach.
But me, it was, like,
so strengthening, like,I wish I could have one in my living room.
(19:56):
Correct.
And, just another $200,000 machinewe should buy.
Yeah, exactly.
250 is actually, I think what it is now.
so by the way, on your.
Oh, I do hot yoga. That's my app.
So that's where we'redifferent. Like that heat.
I'm just I'm,I'm bred to be kept in warmer climates.
(20:17):
Let me tell you this cold weather. No.
Thank you.
how about skincare?
Were there any skincare productsthat you felt like
really stayedor anything you've learned about?
Yes, I, I still to this day,
well, eat rice and beans,
but I will always have skin medicain my bathroom.
I said, look, I don't understand whereyou're going with the rice and beans.
(20:39):
Got to go.
I'm not to.
Like,not eat so that I can have skin medica.
Oh yeah. Back to T.e.n.s is like.
A balm for me.
Yeah.
For me, yeah I know, listen,
I know everybody's differentbut our polar opposites.
What are youwhat what are you are you still wearing
(21:01):
the same skincare?
You can't be.
You have so much active accessto everything.
you know,the one thing that I just really do love.
But it is.
And I'm lucky because through this show,
I made a friendwho will certainly hook me up here
and there is an A to B, say,knitter B say though is so expensive,
but my God, you put it on likeTom and I have written songs about it
(21:23):
because it smells so goodand I'm not even lying.
And they're micellar water.
I'm doing a lot of these videos now with,Laura Geller, and her makeup's great,
but when you're putting iton, taking it off,
putting it on like I'm doingten different looks in a day.
I found that a lot of, like,
those makeup remover wipes,they burn like it doesn't work for me.
The micellar water from Natera, say is.
(21:46):
But of course, like,
I like,why doesn't the $8 one more as well?
Like,I would use the $8 when it burns my face.
There's like 65,which is like, but it's so good.
It's it's
everything off one swipe and you're,you're, you're
you're good to go.
(22:06):
So what advice would you give
the new amber coming down the block.
The girl maybe just graduatingor think she wants
to start a beauty podcast with herbest with her beauty bestie.
Right. Because because she's listening.
She's she's she's been watching.
She's been taking notes.
You know,they always say you got to pay it forward.
(22:30):
What's the number one
form of advice she would give to her?
Do it if you love it like you can't.
The reason that you and I didthis, you know,
and maybe there were dreamsthat we would get big
and bought out somewhere, but, like,at the end of the day, we loved it.
And we were like, we love beauty.
Because I don't know, I don't Iyou hear about these podcasts, obviously,
(22:51):
that like the Joe Rogan's of the worldwho are clearly raking in the dough.
But I think that, like everythingelse, there's so much competition,
that like,
it's okay to do something
because you love it and not for the moneybecause other things,
like, I got my job with Laurabecause she was on the podcast.
(23:13):
Right?
Like, I interview to her,like those things will come.
So I guess, you know, just
do what you love.
Because eventually, at some point,
that success will grow.
Exactly.
How about you?
What would you say?
(23:34):
You know,
I never in a million yearsthought that I would be on a podcast.
right.
Until you turned around and said, bitch,it's you.
Right?
I wasn't, and I think that'sthe most important thing in my life that
when you have opportunity,you got to say yes.
And if you can help your friendand you can push people forward,
(23:57):
and you can be that, like ten fingers,that goes, boom, get up over there.
You know, it's just yeah, it's a yes.
And you never know where it will leadand you never know where it will take you.
I, I think I shared with you,
I shared with you the other day,I called you because I had to.
I needed a good cry,but like my good friend. Right.
And I, I just accomplished my first movie,and it's really cool.
(24:20):
And I, the, the director, that I met and,
who also wrote the script with meas he's watched the podcast and was like.
Yeah, I. Love you. Yeah.
And I love you on camera on your gradeand whatever you want to do, let's do.
And it really it was some of the clipsfrom the podcast that he loved.
Yeah.
Off the Instagram that he because itdefinitely led to my next big thing too.
(24:44):
Yeah. All because because we said yes.
All because we said yes.
I will also say listen to people
like one of the things that, you know,I got feedback
and one of the comments was like,great guests, but like Amber shut up.
And I was like, Fair point.
Oh, really?
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
(25:05):
mean, you know, I'm like,can we all just be,
like,a little nicer to each other on social?
I mean, have all never going to happen,but but but actually I thought
that was actually very constructivefeedback.
yeah.
You have these experts here.
Let them do their thing.
To the point. It is a good point.
(25:26):
You're also,you know, I agree and I disagree.
There's a light within all of us. Right.
And we shouldn't let anybody dim it. Sure.
Maybe you needed to take a breath.Maybe you needed to hear it.
But in the same breath, I mean,
the show would have never been the showwithout you. So.
I mean, like, if you're hosting the show,you got to talk.
(25:46):
Yeah, I know,but I didn't take it like that. Like what?
I thought it was actually good.
It was like, Amber,
it's okay to let the guest talk onand on and on and on
and so sometimes guys are gladthat I caught them off,
because otherwiseit would have been forever.
But no, most of them.
Most of our guestshave just been so excited
(26:08):

Hey, you should come work with us.
And incredible brands that I love.
But there was never that thingwhere I felt like, wow, this embodies
everything that I believe in.
And when I met Lauraand her lot like the fact that she doesn't
use models under 40 anymoreand that it's a place for women.
(30:29):
Her makeup.
I started wearing it in my 20s,but now in my mid 40s.
It's really great.
I gave it to my momwho'd given up on makeup,
and now at 76,she's like, excited to get ready again.

(32:35):
Right.
This is the Art Beauty podcast where weare always reaching for truth in beauty.
Remember, the people in the brandsare not paying to be here,
so we get to have those true conversationbecause you deserve to be informed
so you can make the best choicesfor yourself.
With that said, I'm Amber Milt and today
my fabulous co-host is Ryan Nickulas.
(00:22):
For those of you who have been heresince the beginning, you know that
he and I started this together and, today
there is a very special announcement
because this will be our final podcast.
So there is nobody else I couldwrap this up with but you, my love.
(00:44):
thank you for being here today.
just awesome to have you back.
Thank you for having me.
I absolutely when you
when you shot me the text, it was likeI teared up.
It was. Yeah.
It, it was it's been a journey.
And you've taken the batonand you've ran so far with this puppy.
Holy moly.
(01:05):
What is the total number of calls?
This is 283.
And here's some fun numbers.
over 140,000 episode listeners.
just on, just on like the audio side,
not including everything from YouTubeand all of those views.
(01:27):
but, I mean, it's it's such an honor.
And for everybodywho has been with us from the beginning
or maybe through midway,thank you for listening.
it was not an easy decision,but I am changing my job.
I'm going to be going full timein-house with Laura
(01:48):
Geller and her brand and just
wouldn'thave the time, unfortunately, to do this.
But that's what I like.
I want to say goodbyebecause you never know.
You never know. Oh, it could be.
See you soon.
It could be a. Recent. Person.It could be.
You know, I'm just so excited tofollow you on TikTok and all your socials
(02:09):
to see what's next for you, because, wow,the shift has already begun.
But yeah, but you know,this has been such a journey.
And, you know, it's funny,I was laughing to myself today.
I was like, well,maybe the idea of starting a podcast
that wasn't sponsored,that brings in no income, like,
might not have been the best businessdecision, however,
(02:31):
really, I feel like youand I started this out of passion, wanting
to bring information to people that wasn'tlike, hey, here's brands on here.
They're paying to tell youwhat they want to hear.
But it gave brands like a platformto actually talk about the products.
and we did really feature stuff we liked.
Right. So I felt like that was honest.
and then there's been some episodeswhere people have come on and been like,
(02:53):
you know, where I've said,
hey, you're a social mediasays that this product
doesn'twork, and brands really owned up to that.
I thought that was really special,but probably from the get
go of like doingthis is like an unsponsored, unpaid thing.
But you remember our first tagline.
Oh, the real truthabout the fake shit factory.
I mean, I thought we could talk aboutsome of the day, like some of our
(03:15):
our show has been so like it's gonethrough an evolution.
For sure.
Like I said, you really took the batonand you ran with this puppy, and,
you know, after Covid, after it,every all the dust had settled,
so to speak, and your career shiftedand you knew exactly what you wanted.
You knew exactlywhere you needed it to go.
And it was so fun to become a fan
(03:38):
again of the showand become a fan of you and
and watch how you shifted and changedand you did such an amazing job.
and, you know, not to bring it back,
but I remember walking in WashingtonSquare Park
where, I mean,I was harassed to drag in a suitcase
because I was coming up from DCand you going, like,
(03:58):
I think we can do it.
And we had just left a doctor'soffice and shot, like, you know,
just a quick Botox video that, like,we just had no idea where it would go.
And you. Hi. Hats off to you.
I'm just this little,you know, I'm not going to blow
smoke up your ass too much, but I have tojust say, you really do have.
You must be proud of yourself.
(04:19):
You have to just smell your own flowersfor a second, because you really, truly.
You were ten toes down with this puppyfrom day one, and you didn't see it
any other way, regardless of businessor regardless of opinions.
And regardless,
you have to be proud of yourselfbecause I am very proud of you.
I know the listeners are veryproud of you. The brands are proud of you.
You've opened quite a few doorsfor quite a few people and all right,
(04:40):
that's enough smoke blowing.But it's true.
It's it's it all stemmed from one idea.
Yeah. You know thank you.
But like also don'tdon't discount yourself there
because I had a lot of my guyfriends who have zero interest.
I mean, listen,
a lot of my guy friends actually do havea lot of interest in skincare.
But then there were the fewthat were like,
I don't really care about this,but I love listening
(05:02):
to Ryanbecause he's so damn fun and funny.
And I was like,I know, I know, he's the best.
You had.
a lot of people don't know this about you.
The podcast thing, like couldn’thadn't quite taken off yet.
Right?
People were kind of dippingand doing a little bit,
you know, like millionaireswere throwing money at it.
They were trying to seeif they could make money.
(05:22):
And you had been a guest on a podcast
and they instantly, like, were like,you're going to be great.
We want to take you and like, remix you.
And you were like, right,what do you think?
And I was like, well, I think you needto find a partner in crime.
And I told you exactly what I thought
that partner in crime needed to be,what she needed to be for you.
(05:43):
And then you turned aroundand looked in the mirror.
We were doing your hairat the time at the salon.
You went well? Yeah. She's you
and I want you.
I never saw that coming.
but you were right.
And it was a perfect jump off of an idea.
And, you know,the beautiful thing about friendship is.
And I love that we,you know, you know, it wasn't always easy.
(06:05):
You know, you can't always.
It's tough to, like,start a project with a friend, right?
And you never, like.You see how I work? You see how you work.
We're so polar opposites that.
Thank you for dealing with me.
and then, you know, boom.
We went into a pandemic. Yeah.
And I watched one of our old episodesthis morning,
and I was like,oh, are we grasping at straws or what?
(06:27):
Which episode was it?
And like, do you have any favorites?I have a few favorites.
I mean, we jumped on zoom before zoom.
Zoom. Do you remember.
Can we just for a minute because noweverybody like zoom is like but
but the first hour or so,we used to book out like an hour
and 20 minutes for each guest,
because the first 20 minuteswould be like, no, no, no,
(06:48):
to see that little buttonthat looks like a camera.
Okay. No no no. Turn that.
No, no. Okay. Now, now. Okay.
No, but you got to turn your camera facingyou and, Okay.
No, it was a nightmare.
now it's gotten so easy.
So in some ways,Covid was the best thing to happen.
Production wise, because everybody got it.
Everybody got it real quick.
some of the fake
(07:09):
it time, because
it made us really dig deep into our gut,
really be authentic.
It really was the real truth about,you know, the crazy shit.
And, you know, we were talking aboutdropping off single process hair color
to my clients at the doorand social distancing, and
and you were talking about,
melting off your own gel off your nails,and, like, you were so proud of yourself
(07:34):
because we were like, okay,we can't be the only people freaking out.
And like, all right, well, you're
no one's getting a fill-inand no one's going the nail salon.
And we really did.
We ralliedand we just kind of kept the conversation
as light as we could during that time.
And I think we, we,you know, with our audiences reaction
and our and their suggestions,I think we, we really, truly did our best.
And it I mean, it helped ushelp me stay sane in that process.
(07:58):
Do you remember each other?
Do you rememberwhen we got the Halo laser?
So when Ryan and I first started,
if you haven't gone back to the
early episodes, like we would meet doctorsat their offices, set up our mikes,
do this before it was remote and like,try a product to try something out.
The halo laser.
(08:20):
All I remember iswe we were, very professional
and we did the interview
after we got the laser,and that was probably about 30 minutes.
And then you and I get,
we pack up all our stuff,then we get in the Uber, and I look at you
and I go, oh my God, my face is on fire.
I I had had plastic surgery,I had had hair transplant,
I had done some stuff to myself.
(08:42):
But that halo laser hit all of a suddenI was like, are we going to make it home?
Like, I,
where do we come back to my office.
I just remember being like,with like, ice packs on my face.
Yeah.
And then the days after,
the days after we your skin just starts
melting off and like,you had an event to go to.
(09:04):
I went into work and the girl was like,please remove like, don't
get anywhere near my coffee cupbecause I'm worried your face is literally
going to flake off into it. Exactly.
We were so vain.
I don't think we knew how vainwe really were,
because all of a suddenwe became like a version of the mask
and we were, like, embarrassed and,like, subconscious.
(09:25):
And I was like, no, Amber, take deep.
I think people with like, acne may feelI was trying to get us to like,
bring it back home,but at the end of the day,
I mean, it was a fabulous treatment.
It was very expensive,but I could never have guessed
what it would have done to us emotionallyand mentally because nobody took.
That's not in any pamphlet,but we got to talk about it.
(09:47):
I liked it, and I thinkthat there is a certain person for it.
So like maybeif you have like real textural issues,
for me, that amount of downtime, look,our skin was glowing,
we got the glow,but it's was like legit five days of like,
I can't really make planslike I've got to.
I would be on the subway going to workand just
(10:07):
you could see people staring at me like,what is wrong with that girl?
Like,what's going on over there with that?
Yes, I rememberyou going through that now.
We lived two different lifestyles, right?
Like five days for me.I can sit on my head in the corner, right?
I could make mac and cheese and,like, swing the kids.
You're like, five days.
Oh my God, dude.
New York City snob. You I love you.
(10:29):
I'm like five days. That is nothing.
Give me the glow again.
Well, but, like,if I had the time off, like,
when I did my breast lift,that was the best week.
I mean, part of that makes me
want to do more plastic surgeryjust to have the week off.
Like I laid in bed.
I watch TV, you know?
I mean, it was just
it was like a mini vacation, in some ways,which is kind of sick to say.
(10:51):
However, some of these procedureswhere you're like,
shoot, like,I didn't plan for this correctly and,
I haveto go out and interact with the world.
It's not great.
No, no, no, no, I hear you.
What else?
Let's see.
And, you know, the crazy thing is,
I was looking back and trying to guessthe number of guests we've had.
(11:14):
It's a little bit harder without me
having to count, but, like,it has to be well over 250.
We've had some repeats,
but then there've been some episodeswhere there's like two guests on room,
so it's just insane to think about
all of the information.
Information products I still use today.
the, the masks from,
(11:36):
they're like, he is a hear me roar.
Oh, yeah.
You love you love those.
I loved those masks.
and I and and the woman who created,
That took away the Dallas hair.
She was awesome. What was her?What was she.
Dara, with,
the woman that was the.
Well, wait,there was two. So I'm just trying.
(11:58):
Remember,there was one that had the electric
or there was onethat was just a straight razor.
So there was. Yeah.
So I believe it was the.
Like the electric, I think.
I think it was electric.
Yeah. User very easy. Friendly.
Oh my gosh.
I think derma slash camouflage.
Derma flash. Yes.
We sat in that interview and I waswe laughed at NASA.
(12:20):
I was like, we we're doing stuff.
These are like, this is the real deal.
and then, you know, the rest was history.
After that.
I left it and I was like, Ryan,why did you not tell me that?
I was like,basically like a bear on my face?
Because when you take it off,it's the amount of hair.
And I'll tell you,of all of the many procedures
(12:43):
and things that I have done and tried,
dermaplaning, which is removing the face,is something I still do every week.
I have now sent advancedfrom the derma flash, which is so fabulous
because it is so user friendly to,now using Stack Skincare.
They were another guestI think I had on after.
(13:04):
after you were not with the show,they did.
it's a straight razor.
It is literally you are taking a straightrazor to your face.
But man,I feel like if you are not dermaplaning,
you're missing out.
Something.
It's something worth trying for sure for.
Even if you don't wear makeup,even if you've never had it done.
(13:26):
It's it's it's a huge change,a huge after, so to speak.
You know, it's just your makeupgoes on smooth because you have no hair.
And then people would be like, itdevelops hair grow back thicker.
It doesn't. By the way,I've talked to many doctors.
It will not grow back thicker.
But you know, it's differentfor me than for you
because you've been shaving or notshaving for years of your life, right?
(13:46):
Like so you're getting that sameeffect without having to,
like like you shave, right?
So, like, I look at my husband, he shavesevery day and I'm like, every day.
So now I'm like, I'm.
I'm doing my lady shaving, too.
What was the favorite,
you know, fan email or or.
(14:09):
Thank you.
You got to say is thatdoes that ring anything for you?
Because I have one note. Well, you.
Well, well,first of all, shout out to my mother
who has watched every single episode,who comments on YouTube on everything.
No, it's like.
Honestly. So special.
and my dad too, who's listened to many,many of them, but my mom
(14:31):
listens to everyone comments and everyone.
So biggest fan.
I'm so lucky to you knowyou know that's to still have her ear.
I just a shout out to mama.
Love it.
How about you?
What do you remember?
Oh wait you're freezing.
(14:51):
Oh my gosh.
And you're freezing on a facethat you are not going to be pleased with
what is going on with the streaming today.
Be there.
Hold on. I.
Can you hear me now?
I can, I can.
the young woman who lost all the weight
and, Yes.
(15:13):
And she came on our showand she had a phenomenal story.
She lost to, I think well over 100 pounds.
And she did.
She started the conversationabout the lift for you,
and it was her story that just flooded uswith different, so just for fan base,
emails and questionsand it just was it was she was an amazing,
(15:35):
I guess she had an amazing domino effecton, on on a lot of our listeners.
Right?
She, she, she moved a lot of peopleand changed a lot of lives, so to speak.
That was cool.
I mean, we've covered the gamutfrom so many things, from fashion
with the style guysto doctors to personal people come on,
talking about everything from hair lossto weight loss, tuberous breasts.
(15:59):
Right. You know, that was going on, right.
And just a lot. And you're right.
We're so lucky to have.
And then the, the, the doctorwho did all the breast augmentation
for the women who he rebuilt their breastsafter breast cancer, I mean, did
we did the book launch, and I just sentthat book to a friend of mine's friend
who went through that, and she wrote methe most beautiful thank you, like,
(16:20):
two months ago, because it justit was a huge tool for her to heal
and to listen to other the,the other women's stories.
And I was like,oh yeah, Amber and I did that.
We did that.
And we went to that launchand that was really awesome.
Just so cool.
since
we started, like,what are some of the other, you know,
you mentioned that, hear me roar productslike what are some of the things
(16:43):
and maybe like
if you don't mention like the procedures,like you stayed in it, you know,
like,what are some of the things that you're,
like, loving or maybe that we haven'tfeatured on the show that you're like,

I mean, if you can have your boobs done,why can't the boys have their their friend
done?
I think it's, you know, we'll leave itthere.

I think, was when we did I got you to DCand Maryland and we and we and Virginia.
(17:50):
You did the DMV tour with meand, Doctor Miriam. Nas.
Yeah.
Who was hands down
one of my most favorite facial ocular,ocular facial plastic surgeons.

Yeah.
and she did the best under-eye fillerI've ever had in my life, and I'm.
I need to book a flight to go see her
(18:11):
because I'm no longer there.
Isn't not the thing that's, like,crazy to, like some of the doctors.

from all over the country and I'm like,I need to come out to see
you because you're so good.
undercover.
Do you remember we did the, the cryofreezing thing?
My first and only time.

Delete them.
Do you still do that?
I do, You know.

It burns fat.
I recently lost, like, 15 pounds again.
(19:36):

And a little m sculpt, whichwe got to help launch to remember that.
Yeah.
sculpt was it was,I mean, well, but, like,
super effective on you because you don'thave the body fat on top of your stomach.
But me, it was, like,
so strengthening, like,I wish I could have one in my living room.
(19:56):
Correct.

Yes, I, I still to this day,

Oh yeah. Back to T.e.n.s is like.
A balm for me.
Yeah.
For me, yeah I know, listen,
I know everybody's differentbut our polar opposites.
What are youwhat what are you are you still wearing
(21:01):
the same skincare?
You can't be.
You have so much active accessto everything.
you know,the one thing that I just really do love.
But it is.
And I'm lucky because through this show,
I made a friendwho will certainly hook me up here
and there is an A to B, say,knitter B say though is so expensive,
but my God, you put it on likeTom and I have written songs about it
(21:23):
because it smells so goodand I'm not even lying.
And they're micellar water.
I'm doing a lot of these videos now with,Laura Geller, and her makeup's great,
but when you're putting iton, taking it off,
putting it on like I'm doingten different looks in a day.
I found that a lot of, like,
those makeup remover wipes,they burn like it doesn't work for me.
The micellar water from Natera, say is.
(21:46):
But of course, like,
I like,why doesn't the $8 one more as well?
Like,I would use the $8 when it burns my face.
There's like 65,which is like, but it's so good.
It's it's
everything off one swipe and you're,you're, you're
you're good to go.
(22:06):
So what advice would you give
the new amber coming down the block.
The girl maybe just graduatingor think she wants
to start a beauty podcast with herbest with her beauty bestie.
Right. Because because she's listening.
She's she's she's been watching.
She's been taking notes.
You know,they always say you got to pay it forward.
(22:30):
What's the number one
form of advice she would give to her?
Do it if you love it like you can't.
The reason that you and I didthis, you know,
and maybe there were dreamsthat we would get big
and bought out somewhere, but, like,at the end of the day, we loved it.
And we were like, we love beauty.
Because I don't know, I don't Iyou hear about these podcasts, obviously,
(22:51):
that like the Joe Rogan's of the worldwho are clearly raking in the dough.
But I think that, like everythingelse, there's so much competition,
that like,
it's okay to do something
because you love it and not for the moneybecause other things,
like, I got my job with Laurabecause she was on the podcast.
(23:13):
Right?
Like, I interview to her,like those things will come.
So I guess, you know, just
do what you love.
Because eventually, at some point,
that success will grow.
Exactly.
How about you?
What would you say?
(23:34):
You know,
I never in a million yearsthought that I would be on a podcast.
right.
Until you turned around and said, bitch,it's you.
Right?
I wasn't, and I think that'sthe most important thing in my life that
when you have opportunity,you got to say yes.
And if you can help your friendand you can push people forward,
(23:57):
and you can be that, like ten fingers,that goes, boom, get up over there.
You know, it's just yeah, it's a yes.
And you never know where it will leadand you never know where it will take you.
I, I think I shared with you,
I shared with you the other day,I called you because I had to.
I needed a good cry,but like my good friend. Right.
And I, I just accomplished my first movie,and it's really cool.
(24:20):
And I, the, the director, that I met and,
who also wrote the script with meas he's watched the podcast and was like.
Yeah, I. Love you. Yeah.
And I love you on camera on your gradeand whatever you want to do, let's do.
And it really it was some of the clipsfrom the podcast that he loved.
Yeah.
Off the Instagram that he because itdefinitely led to my next big thing too.
(24:44):
Yeah. All because because we said yes.
All because we said yes.
I will also say listen to people
like one of the things that, you know,I got feedback
and one of the comments was like,great guests, but like Amber shut up.
And I was like, Fair point.
Oh, really?
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
(25:05):
mean, you know, I'm like,can we all just be,
like,a little nicer to each other on social?
I mean, have all never going to happen,but but but actually I thought
that was actually very constructivefeedback.
yeah.
You have these experts here.
Let them do their thing.
To the point. It is a good point.
(25:26):
You're also,you know, I agree and I disagree.
There's a light within all of us. Right.
And we shouldn't let anybody dim it. Sure.
Maybe you needed to take a breath.Maybe you needed to hear it.
But in the same breath, I mean,
the show would have never been the showwithout you. So.
I mean, like, if you're hosting the show,you got to talk.
(25:46):
Yeah, I know,but I didn't take it like that. Like what?
I thought it was actually good.
It was like, Amber,
it's okay to let the guest talk onand on and on and on
and so sometimes guys are gladthat I caught them off,
because otherwiseit would have been forever.
But no, most of them.
Most of our guestshave just been so excited
(26:08):
and so knowledgeableand had so much to offer.
And I think the nicest thing isthat when we finish, like so
many of our guests were like,that was so much fun.
Very true, very true.
And then who was the guy?
I so wanted you to hook me up with him?
And we still have to find outif he's single.
the one that the
(26:29):
the chemist who did the vitamin C,the tall, dark and handsome chemist.
What was his that Braun oh.
My gosh, Ron. Yes.

you? Just so busy.
