How to Treat Your Skin Like a Celebrity, with Celebrity Facialist Joanna Vargas

Ep. 51

Joanna Vargas is Hollywood's favorite facialist, with a clientele that reads like the Oscars guest list. She is the founder of the Joanna Vargas Skincare line, and has spas in NYC and LA. On today's episode, Joanna is spilling all her tips and skincare secrets, including the exact process she uses to get celebrities red carpet ready. But Joanna is also a big practitioner in beauty from the inside out, so she's also sharing her wellness rituals for glowing skin, including the smoothie recipe she drinks every day, why we should all be drinking chlorophyll water, and how food intolerances relate to acne. This episode covers a wide range of topics, price points, and ideologies, from the latest treatments celebrities are getting (and her thoughts on laser, Morpheus 8, etc.) to DIY tricks that cost next to nothing but make a major difference (i.e. cotton pads soaked in chamomile tea). Joanna is dispelling the myth that celebrities just woke up like this, and teaches you why you shouldn't follow the TikTok trends.
