There's no such thing as chatting with Goop beauty editor Megan O'Neill for just five minutes.  With a willowy six-foot frame and supernaturally radiant skin, she is a walking advertisement for living clean—brimming with good vibes that invite a flurry of rapid-fire questions about her top beauty products and mind-body rituals. So when she reveals that she's pregnant with her first baby—a boy due in April!—naturally you want to know everything. 

"I'm pregnant because of the pandemic basically!" she admits with a laugh while sitting down with Gucci to talk all things baby bumping. "I ran out of birth control...I kind of took that and went with it." Here, she shares her favorite Vitamin C face serum, how to cover breakouts like a pro, and the black maternal health statistics that demand attention now.  "[Black women] are four times more likely to die during pregnancy than white women " says O'Neill, who became attuned to the startling disparity last year. "It's got to change—starting with awareness." Watch the full episode now.
