  1. Terri White | How to Create your Dream Career.

    12 MAY

    Terri White | How to Create your Dream Career.

    In this episode I’m joined by the fabulous Terri White, editor of Empire magazine and fellow beauty enthusiastic.  One of my reasons for inviting Terri onto the show - other than her utter coolness - was because she wrote a feature for Red Magazine last year where she talked about her love of eyeliner. As a fellow wearer of the feline flick I know that those black lines are often less about emphasising the eyes and more about putting a don’t-f***-with-me barrier between me and the world. She said it perfectly and you can read it for yourself here. Why should you listen to this podcast? For one thing we talk about her time in New York editing Time Out, but more to the point I get her to give me the low-down on Manhattan drugstores and the actual chemical high you can get from being surrounded by aisles of beauty products and skincare that all tot up to under $10.  She does the decent thing and gives us her guide to what every Brit in New York should pick up from CVS and Duane Reade. Gawd bless her. In and amongst that we chat about interviewing our heroes and how the golden rule is ‘be cool’, Primark binges and Madonna - who incidentally is responsible for my eternally futile search for Fire Engine Red lipstick... Terri is definitely worth a social media ‘follow’ so find her on twitter @terriwhite and instagram @terrilwhite    Permalink Hey!

    Nadine Baggott | Top tips for spotting the BS in Beauty.

    If you want an honest answer about pretty much anything to do with beauty then speak to Nadine Baggott. She has an encyclopaedic beauty knowledge and I've never asked her a questions she hasn't known the answer to. You'll see what I mean when you listen to the show... We cover a lot of ground in this episode, but Nadine references a BRILLIANT article which you can read in full here --> Generation Y.  We talk about the cult of contouring, what beauty buys you should and shouldn't spend your money on and why being yourself is so crucial. The latter is while you'll never find her images filtered or tinkered with... Nadine shares with me what it was like being thrust into the spotlight via a hugely popular ad campaign ten years ago - it went viral before we knew what viral was, and what it's like to be in touch with her legion of fans via her YouTube channel The Beauty Know It All.  We also talk about what it's like interviewing celebrities and what we've learned from coming face-to-face with the A-list. Is it as exciting as one may think..? You can follow Nadine on Twitter @NadineBaggott on Facebook at Nadine Baggott The Beauty Know It All and she's also on instagram @nadinebaggott. Hey!

  3. The SPF Episode with Abi Cleeve

    The SPF Episode with Abi Cleeve

    Joining me in this episode is Abi Cleeve the MD of Ultrasun UK. On the topic of sun care she is, quite simply, an oracle and if you've ever felt bamboozled by the meaning of UVA or UVB, wondered what on earth 'broad spectrum' means and whether SPF 20 means you can spend 20 minutes in the sun or not, then this is a show you need to tune in to. Oh, and if you worry about those high factor formulas on young children, then you won't want to miss her intel... She even corrected some bad SPF behaviour in this beauty journalist. My wrists were most definitely slapped... We talk about meeting, and becoming firm friends, in the dressings room of QVC where we went from meeting to sharing concerns about chin hairs in about four and a half minutes. She's an expert in her field, and she's a great dressing room buddy. You haven't lived until you've put the world to rights with Abi Cleeve. Join us, won't you..? You can also download The Beauty Podcast with Emma G on iTunes and Soundcloud. Abi and Ultrasun UK can be found at:  UltrasunUK  Twitter UltrasunUK  Facebook UltrasunUK You can get in touch with me via my website Emma Gunavardhana, where you can also sign up for the show's newsletter or on social media; Twitter@EmmaG_Beauty and Instagram where I'm @emmaguns   Permalink Hey!

    This is What's Wrong with the Beauty Industry...

    If you subscribe to my Substack (I love you!) then you would have seen my column about how wellness messaging on products has, in my opinion, gone too far. We are all entitled to create a spa-like experience in our own home but it's my belief that brands latching the benefits of their products onto you taking a moment to yourself is really quite disingenuous. In this episode, I explain why it got me so riled and why we should expect better of brands. If you've been here a while then you'll know I am often vague when making a point about something contentious. I don't name names and I'm not interested in starting a fight with anyone. However, I break my own rule in this episode when it comes to the lack of reciprocity in podcasting. I was talking to a fellow OG podcaster (someone who also has 10 plus years of podcasts to their name) and we were saying how disappointing it is when you share your platform with someone and they seem indifferent and don't support you back... Plus. there's a short but sweet update on my fitness and nutrition strategy. Short and sweet because I'm wondering whether too much focus on it is as helpful as I think it is... Speaking of, this is the episode of Ready To Talk I mentioned in the show. Please do chat with me and your fellow listeners over on Substack. I'd love to hear your thoughts. EG xx Hey!
