In today’s episode, you’ll hear the story of how Cult Beauty grew from a start-up to one of the biggest beauty retailers in the UK. Alexia Inge co-founded Cult Beauty as a passionate, but frustrated beauty consumer, tired of being oversold products. These negative customer experiences drove her to make Cult Beauty the most ‘trusted’ beauty retailer in the world. 

Cult Beauty is known globally as THE place to find the ultimate hero products and trends the world of beauty has to offer so if you haven't already, you need this site saved to your bookmark bar! And personally I’m so excited for this episode because my brand Fable & Mane has recently launched on Cult Beauty itself!

What began as a life-long obsession with freckles developed into years of research into creating the ‘perfect’ freckle. Remi Brixton found that there was no company that made what she was looking for, so she created it herself. Now CEO and founder of Freck Beauty, Remi has transformed the beautyscape, driving a movement of trailblazers with nothing less than a ride-or-die attitude towards originality.

What was once an industry that was inclined to cover up freckles is now a community of make-up artists, celebrities, influencers and TikTokers alike, eager to experiment with self-expression. There’s no doubt about it: these temporary freckles are going viral. My favourite part? It was all inspired by Remi’s clear, vibrant and diverse vision for the brand.

After battling with acne-prone skin, Nicolas decided to take matters into his own hands. With a background in biomedical and pharmaceutical science, he was always fascinated with how the skin works as an organ. That curiosity led him to eventually launch, not just one, but TWO best-selling global skincare brands rooted in research and science. 

Today, I sit down with him to learn about his journey from biomedical sciences to advertising to beauty and how he took learnings from all three industries to create two successful skincare brands in just 5 years.
