    FYI: Laura Mallows & Ronnie Bourne

    This weeks podcasts guests (yes we have 2!) are Laura Mallows and Ronnie Bourne, Co-Founders of Mallows Beauty - a skincare brand that will make you glow inside and out. Laura & Ronnie started Mallows Beauty at the start of 2020 with the motivation to celebrate imperfections and educate consumers about skin, rather than selling false dreams of ‘perfection’ and ‘quick fixes’. Having originally planned to launch to market with face masks, Laura & Ronnie saw the urgent need for hand sanitiser with the rise of the Covid pandemic and immediately pivoted production selling and distributing sanitiser nation wide. This was the beginning of their journey - they’ve now developed numerous products and launched, in just one year, in to retailers such as Superdrug, Urban Outfitters and Misguided. Laura & Ronnie talk us through the journey to starting Mallows Beauty and their whirlwind first year of business. Subscribe - Follow - Share www.lovegunn.co
