Summary
April Gargiulo is the founder of Vintner’s Daughter, the cult-favorite brand beloved by skincare fanatics, from celebrities and beauty editors to clean beauty devotees and face oil enthusiasts. When April became pregnant with her first daughter, she tried to find a skincare product she could use that was free from chemicals and murky ingredients — she couldn’t find any. April had spent years working in her family’s wine business, learning the importance of quality formulation and ingredient sourcing, so using the same practices she learned on the vineyards, April decided to take a stab at creating her own beauty solution. The result? The Active Botanical serum, a holy grail skincare product made with whole botanicals and packed with nutrients that could replace your entire skincare routine while delivering dramatic results. Since then, she’s also created the Active Treatment Essence, which has also garnered a massive fanbase.

| 0:00.0 | Hi Kirby. Hi Sarah. Welcome to Los Angeles. Brought to you by HOM Nutrition. Okay, Kirby, I want to talk about one of my new favorite |
| 0:12.0 | Hum Nutrition products that Matt actually turned me onto. Ooh, the husband. Love it. It's called Wingman, |
| 0:18.9 | and it's a supplement that supports liver detox and aids in digestion. |
| 0:22.9 | And then as a result, it helps reduce the appearance of dark circles under your eyes. |
| 0:26.7 | Okay, wait. |
| 0:27.2 | So let's back it up. |
| 0:28.5 | How does that actually work there? |
| 0:29.9 | All right. |
| 0:30.3 | So it has milk thistle, dandelion root, and artichoke, all of which work to give your liver a good cleanse. |
| 0:37.3 | So, yeah. |
| 0:38.3 | So the milk thistle has been shown to regenerate liver cells and support detox mechanisms. |
| 0:43.3 | Okay, so that makes sense because usually I'm like, nothing's going to get rid of your dark circles, |
| 0:46.6 | but if you're detoxing your liver, I think that definitely counts. |
| 0:51.1 | From like the inside out. Yes, exactly. |
| 0:52.4 | So it sounds like it's something that might be great as well if you've been getting your |

| 0:58.4 | Mm-hmm. |
| 0:58.8 | 100%. |
| 0:59.7 | And that is the first time I actually used it. |
| 1:04.0 | I'm a bit of a lightweight and I had a couple glasses of red wine. |
