Before I was one, I assumed that all beauty editors were perfectly groomed 24/7. Monthly manicures, a daily face of makeup, trims every six weeks (a recommendation I approach with the same flexibility as our government-mandated wine allowance)
With age, wisdom and over a decade in the industry, I've realised there are many ways to be a beauty journalist, and preened glamourpuss is but one. Thank goodness, because, intensive skincare routine aside, I'm actually a fairly low-maintenance person.
