  • Beauty Trends are moving TOO fast
    Sep 18 2023

    Welcome to the Beauty Insider 101 podcast!

    I'm your host, Dani Nicholls - a skincare expert and proud acne sufferer ✨

    In this week's episode, we talk about the rapid rate at which we see trends happen. Say bye-bye to the traditional 20 year product trend cycle and hello to more micro-trends than you can keep up with a major trends which feel like a flash in the pan.

    But what is the long term impact for both brands and consumers, when one day it's latte makeup and the next strawberry or is it tomato?! I can't keep up, can you?!
