At the beginning of November, news broke that Dominic McGregor, co-founder of Social Chain and now heading up venture capitalist firm Fearless Adventures, invested £200,000 into sustainable swimwear brand, Swim Society.

Prada recently announced its for its Candy fragrance line. Instead of an A-list celebrity or a luxury content creator with millions of followers fronting the campaign, it was a virtual model called Candy, with the tagline "RethinkReality".

TikTok is a dominating force in the beauty landscape. In September 2021, the short-form app hit one billion users, with beauty being one of its biggest communities thanks to users' fascination with makeup transformations, skincare tutorials, hacks and advice.

GLAMOUR UK spoke to aesthetics expert and independent nurse prescriber Nina Prisk from Harley Street clinic Update Aesthetics to find out.

"This makes me feel like a bit of a fraud, and they're right up there dealing with the sulphuric acid with no protective gear, how they don't get seriously hurt, I've got no idea," Casey Gore says to Resham Khan as they watch candelilla wax farmers in Mexico pour sulphuric acid onto the candelilla shrub from a dirty Coca-Cola bottle in the middle of the desert.

I'm sitting in a chair at Walthamstow-based salon, Buller & Rice, wearing a cloth face covering while my colourist and co-founder Anita Rice is kitted out in full PPE; a visor and protective cape.

As the wave of natural beauty shows no signs of slowing down, the argument of natural vs synthetic ingredients continues, particularly when it comes to preservatives. Pick up any cosmetic product and you'll see 'paraben-free' proudly listed on its packaging and advertising.
You know the saying, 'You don't appreciate what you've got until it's gone?' For me, it rang true when my beloved No7 lipstick in Siren, a matte, brick red shade that could sway even diehard fans of MAC's Ruby Woo, was discontinued. No longer to be. Gone.

Beauty has particularly boomed with tutorials, slick makeovers using budget brands and even dermatologists sharing tips on everything from dark circles to rosacea.

Skincare products can often be full of jargon, lengthy instructions on how to use them, ingredient names you can't pronounce and bold performance claims.
