Kelly Baker - Beauty Journalist and Editor PART 1




Beauty Island show

Summary: Host Brittany Stewart sits down with former Beauty and Health Director of The Australian Women's Weekly Kelly Baker for episode two. In fact, there was so much to talk about, I had to split it into two parts. (So make sure you listen to this one, Part 1, first!) Name an Aussie publication and Kelly Baker has probably written for them. The journalist and editor has worked for the likes of New Idea, Body and Soul, Shop Til You Drop, the Australian Women's Weekly and Channel Nine, as well as her own beauty website The Beauty Insider. Kelly tells it like it is. She's seen a lot in her time in the industry. Along with her eight chosen products, we spoke about the hey days of magazines and what the industry is like now, why fashion is bitchier than beauty, the politics of the term 'anti-ageing', the taboo around botox and fillers and the reality of being a single parent and writing about it on the internet. She's had a fascinating career and has so many great insights. I hope you enjoy.
