14 Podcasts Every Beauty Lover Should Listen To

There are so many great beauty podcasts these days, it can be hard to know where to start. The good thing about beauty podcasts is that you can listen to them out of order, so if there is a particular guest on halfway through a series you can jump into that episode. If all the episodes float your boat, then you can binge them all à la Netflix. Whether you listen to beauty podcasts on your commute, while you're doing your chores or, quite fittingly, while soaking in a tub with a sheet mask on, these are the 14 best podcasts every beauty lover should listen to right now.

Gloss Angeles

A new podcast from reporter Kirbie Johnson and Bustles' senior fashion and beauty editor Sara Tan, this is already becoming one our favorite beauty podcasts to listen to. We love the perspective of all things beauty through an L.A. lens. We're also here for the show titles like Sweat-Proof Makeup Tips For When It's Hot as a Crotch and Okay Ladies Now Let’s Get In(gredient) Formation.

Beauty from the Heart

Rose Gallagher is a British beauty blogger and ambassador for It Cosmetics UK. She is one of the kindest, most genuine women I have the fortune of knowing, so it makes sense that her podcast champions other great women. Each episode shines a light on women in beauty who are pioneering wonderful initiatives. The brand new podcast aired its first episode last weekend with Rose sitting down to chat with journalist Sali Hughes, who set up the non-profit charity Beauty Banks with PR guru Jo Jones, that provides women, men and children in need with personal and beauty care items.

The Emma Guns Show

Emma Gunavardhana is a podcasting pro with over 300 episodes under her belt. What started as a beauty podcast has expanded to become a brilliant chat show with wonderful guests, including happiness expert Gretchen Ruben, author Lindsey Kelk, makeup artist Sam Chapman and skincare guru Paula Begoun. During the in-depth episodes, every Sunday, Emma and her guests explore all manner of topics, from light-hearted and fun to the more serious, like discussions on depression and sobriety. Emma says, "I talk with people who are smarter than me so we can learn". There are also new mini-shows every Wednesdays for those who can't wait a full week for another episode!

On The Line

Estée Lalonde has been creating YouTube videos for years but made the jump to podcasting last year with her show, On The Line. Agony Aunt Estée invites a different guest on to each episode and crowdsources questions from listeners who call or email in with questions for the guest. There are lighthearted episodes like the one where I talk about my naked pussy (that's my hairless Sphynx cat, FYI) to more serious episodes, such as the importance of cervical screening and body positivity with Callie Thorpe.

Life and Lipstick

Makeup artists and pals Hannah Martin and Lisa Potter-Dixon launched this light-hearted and fun podcast at the start of the year. It was so popular they are back with a second series. The duo chats about everything from beauty and fashion to lifestyle and life in general,while also inviting beauty industry guests onto the show, like Milk Makeup founder Zanna Roberts Rassi and Cult Beauty founder, Alexia Inge. The duo does a brilliant job of sharing their stories and anecdotes, while letting their guests shine too.

Wobble

Wobble is an empowering and uplifting happiness and body confidence podcast, "because we all wobble". It's co-hosted by celebrity spray tanner and founder of self-tan brand Isle of Paradise, Jules Von Hep, and radio host-turned-celebrant, Sarah Powell. The show is all about those wobbles we have in life, whether it's a wobble in our career or those mental wobbles we sometimes get when we look in the mirror. Each 30-minute (ish) episode invites brilliant guests like makeup artist Katie Jane Hughes and Real Simple and Health Magazine beauty director Heather Muir to talk about life's hurdles and how to overcome them.
