Summary
Sarah Michelle Gellar is in the studio! From Buffy and Cruel Intentions to Scooby-Doo and beyond, she helped define an entire era, and she’s here to talk beauty, her go-to products, and aging. We dive into how her relationship with beauty has changed over the years, her most nostalgic ’90s and early-2000s product obsessions, and what it was really like being an It Girl before social media existed. Sarah also opens up about raising Gen Z kids in the age of skincare TikTok and how she keeps beauty from becoming an obsession. And yes — we talk Buffy, including what finally made her say yes to revisiting the series and what fans can expect next.
