In this week’s show, I am joined by Darian Symone Harvin, Founder of Beauty IRL, a newsletter covering beauty at the intersection of politics and pop culture. Her writing can also be found at New York Times, Refinery29, Teen Vogue, and The Cut. We discuss Emily Rata’s attempt to buy herself back, QAnon and the wellness industry, and ask why black beauty stores are rarely owned by black people. In Praise Of … is Murad’s Invisiscar Resurfacing Treatment and on Talking Points, our guest is Noelly Michoux, co-founder of 4.5.6 Skin, the new groundbreaking personalised skin care brand for darker skin tones. She discusses the necessity for such a brand and how the beauty industry continues to negate Black skin and Black female founders.
