Lipstick Biddies

Calling all animal lovers, Jen Wood and I are talking everything Cruelty free beauty! Jen is one of my favorite beauty enthusiasts and cruelty free makeup experts who I met on TikTok and have learned so much from as a consumer and pro makeup artist. Her passion and knowledge about the cruelty free space is incredible! She is super inspiring for those who may be curious about going cruelty free but not sure how to go about it, and things to look out for on your cruelty free journey. We also talk content creating and her experience going viral as a Gen X-er on TikTok to broaden her message. Stay tuned and don’t miss our Q and A this week on IG Live!

Special thanks to Jen Wood TikTok @crueltyfreemakeup IG @crueltyfreemaakeup

About Our Guest:

After becoming a blogger on instagram and getting educated on the prevalent abuse of animals in the industry -I have directed my passion for makeup and skincare to solely cruelty free. I spend a lot of time researching brands, and asking them questions! I love helping others learn and showing that it doesn’t have to be expensive or intimidating to go CF.

I love finding alternatives and dupes for higher end cruelty free products. I also enjoy reviewing products in all budgets.

Hello Biddies! This month's bonus episode is my conversation with makeup enthusiast and attorney, Aly Rogers @alylikesmakeup on IG! We hopped on an IG live about a month ago to talk about terms and conditions, contracts, red/green flags to know when agreeing to legal documents. Aly is an incredible wealth of information and as she says, Google is your best friend! Make sure to weigh the risk/reward of everything you sign/agree to and make sure you're taking into account the big picture and your long term career goals. As a reminder, I am not an attorney although I have much experience in corporate HR and office management and running my own makeup business. Aly is also not your attorney so this is not meant to substitute or be taken for personal legal council. The IG live will no longer be publicly available on my feed as of this posting so that it is exclusive to my patrons and available for those who are not IG users. Enjoy and always read read read EVERYTHING!

Biddies I am THRILLED to be welcoming my guest this week Ashley Nelson aka Restroom Rituals for part 1 of a 2 part episode!  Ashley is effing HILARIOUS and we talk all about her wildly entertaining page which she's connected with her audience through her love of makeup, show tunes, dancing and more.  We also chat about our love of reality TV, her recent elopement, and get vulnerable with how we view social media through her lens of being a beauty enthusiast compared with mine as a pro makeup artist.  Ashley has been such a joy to connect with over this past year and truly is as genuine and funny as she comes across on her page.  I know you will love this episode and stay tuned to our part 2 next week where Ashley interviews me for our season finale!
