Angela Caglia | Founder of Angela Caglia Skincare

In episode forty seven of the Glow Journal podcast, host Gemma Watts talks to celebrity esthetician and founder of Angela Caglia Skincare, Angela Caglia. What do Barbra Streisand, Sting, Chrissy Teigen, Noami Watts and Helena Christensen have in common? Their esthetician, Angela Caglia. Even if you don’t have a vested interest in skin, or even in business, listening to Angela is so inspiring based on just how passionate she is about what she does. When she speaks of skin, it’s the vocal equivalent of someone’s eyes lighting up. Born in California, Angela Caglia became infatuated with Paris after watching Elsa Klensch on CNN. A summer spent studying abroad in the city served as Angela’s introduction to spa facials- something of a foreign concept in the US at the time. Upon her return, Angela did a double take as she walked past a newly opened Yon-Ka salon, then walked in and asked if she could work the front desk. From there, she became an esthetician, later working in New York before returning to Los Angeles and establishing herself as one of the world’s most in-demand facialists. It was during a facial at Barbra Streisand’s home in Malibu that Angela felt compelled to create her own line of products, a story best told by Angela but prompted when Barbra, inches from Angela’s face, looked up into her eyes and said “And what’s your dream?” Between 2016 and 2017 Angela Caglia launched her namesake skincare collection and opened the Angela Caglia Skin Spa in Bel Air. This episode was recorded remotely, myself in Melbourne and Angela in Los Angeles, so if you would prefer to read the interview you can find the complete transcript on glowjournal.com. Also, for anyone feeling stressed or may need something to lull them into a state of rest, listening to Angela very softly describe the sensory experience that is one of her signature rose quartz facials is the most relaxed I’ve felt in some months. In this conversation, Angela and I discuss the narrative surrounding men and skincare, how and why your skincare routine could be causing your skin concerns, and how Sting’s chef helped Angela with one of her most important facials ever.You can read this interview now at: glowjournal.com/interview-angela-caglia Follow Angela Caglia Skincare on Instagram at @angelacagliaskincareStay up to date with Gemma on Instagram at @gemkwatts and @glow.journal, or get in touch at [email protected] Hosted on Acast.
