EP13 Rose Gallagher, Podcaster and Beauty Journalist, on Influencer Responsibility, Boundaries and Social Media

My wonderful guest this week is Rose Gallagher, make-up artist, beauty influencer and host of Beauty From the Heart podcast. Rose is on a mission to promote good within the beauty industry through both her platform and podcast, where she sparks meaningful conversations with real change makers and inspiring people in beauty. In this episode, we talk about the responsibility of being an influencer and how we can all create better boundaries with social media. We debate if the beauty industry is feminist or exploitative and Rose shares how she turned her part-time blog into a full-time career. We also discuss the good initiatives happening in beauty and Rose shares her recommended sustainable brands. Enjoy!
