Queen of Youtube GloZell Green at Beautycon + Sonni Abatta on All Things Beauty
#230 - With 4.7 million Youtube followers and credits including Trolls and Wreck It Ralph 2, The Queen of Youtube GloZell Green has done it all, including a sit down interview with President Barack Obama at The White House.
In this live episode in front of an audience of diehard GloZell fans, we discuss everything from screen-time (how does a Youtube star manage to get an iPad away from her toddler?) to the harsh realities of becoming a first-time mother at forty-four. We dispel the myth of the "overnight sensation" and share her secrets to longevity as a content creator. Since this podcast is a live recording straight from the world's largest beauty convention Beautycon and hosted by our friends at The Jane Club, we had to get the inside scoop on GloZell's signature look: green lipstick. After all, when she went to the White House, she gave three tubes of the same green lipstick to President Obama to give to Michelle and their daughters who happen to be huge fans as well.
We also chat with supermom Sonni Abatta, news anchor turned blogger and podcaster about how she looks so damn refreshed even after having three kids in five years! We're talking about skincare, makeup, and flirting with Botox.
