From Crocs to Gua Sha. From J.Lo’s cosmetics to beauty IPOs. From Cottagecore to Suri Cruise, I’ve been quoted widely nationally and internationally on a wide variety of topics. While I’m most often asked for my thoughts on global trends, marketing, beauty/beauty history, beauty culture, celebrities, culture and pop culture, I can weigh in on a variety of hot and timely topics.
