ABOUT THE GUEST
Millie Kendall
CEO of the British Beauty Council, retail maven and brand creator, Millie Kendall has been instrumental in the success of cult brands including Shu Uemura, Aveda, Tweezerman, L’Occitane and Ruby & Millie. Having worked with the UK’s leading retailers, Millie has been creating and marketing beauty brands for the past 30 year's. Millie was awarded an MBE in 2007 for her services to the cosmetic industry, and an OBE in 2022 for services to the hair and beauty industry.
In 1990, Millie met Ruby Hammer and launched Ruby & Millie in 1998. This was the first mid priced make-up brand to cut across existing price and brand perception barriers, launching first in Harvey Nichols then Selfridges and simultaneously going on to retail successfully in Boots. Today, this remains a modern retail growth strategy but for the 90’s it was a completely unique concept.
Millie has also collaborated with beauty journalists and Vogue beauty editor Anna-Marie Solowj to launch concepts like BeautyMART. A ground breaking approach to beauty retail that was born from the realisation that retail methods hadn’t changed in decades, despite consumers shopping very differently with increasing globalisation and the advent of online, BeautyMART became a disruptive and ground-breaking approach to beauty retail - the first beauty boutique in store and online, curated by an editor, featuring a mix of multi priced, globally- sourced products that offered a more democratic choice for the customer. BeautyMART paved the way for this new retail approach now emulated across the globe.
In 2015 alongside Solowij, Millie Kendall launched the PR company Brandstand Communications bringing in partner Andrew Perera, former VP of communications for M.A.C. and PZ Cussons, a couple of years later to run the business. The PR business offers a selective array of services – from business planning and strategy to retail launch, PR and marketing.
Then in 2018 Millie Kendall, Anna-Marie Solowij and Kate Shapland (former Telegraph beauty director) founded the British Beauty Council, a non-profit organisation that aims to support a successful, innovative, and inclusive British beauty industry.
“THE BRITISH BEAUTY COUNCIL REPRESENTS THE VOICES, OPINIONS AND NEEDS OF THE BRITISH BEAUTY INDUSTRY”
The British Beauty Council was founded to represent the voices, opinions and needs of the British beauty industry – from hairdressing to cosmetics, cosmetic surgery, therapy and spa; in education and training; and from formulation to manufacture, supply, logistics packaging, design, retail and media.
"We are a not-for-profit, inclusive organisation that works to engage politicians and business leaders about the value of British beauty to the national economy, and its key role in the UK’s creative and cultural character. Our ambition is to ensure that the beauty industry is recognised and valued at all levels of government, throughout the wider economy and by consumers."

ABOUT THE GUEST
Former beauty editor Lauren Ezekiel’s understanding of the UK beauty market is second to none. With over a decade of experience, writing one of the most eagerly-awaited columns in the UK’s most read magazine, Lauren gained popularity with brands and retailers vying for this all-important nod of approval. From writing long investigative features to interviewing celebrities, she spearheaded all the beauty content in the magazine, regularly directing and producing photoshoots in the UK and abroad.
Lauren's role enabled her to gain experience working on commercial campaigns for the likes of Rimmel London, Maybelline, Braun, Kiehl's Since 1851, St Tropez, Olay, Herbal Essence, Max Factor, Redken, L’Oréal Professionnel, Clairol, OPI, Aussie and Superdrug.
Aside from her role at the magazine, Lauren has consulted for a number of leading beauty brands including Fake Bake, Batiste, Maybelline, Superdrug, Floral Street, Let’s Sanitise, Haze and Le Jeune Skin. As part of her consultation, she has provided brand and product development, copywriting, PR material, and visual direction.
During the first lockdown, Lauren decided to use her time and contacts to show NHS and care workers we were grateful for them, we appreciated them, and we saw them. With her eye for strategy and hardworking ethos, she turned her appeal We C U 2020 into a nationwide success. Managing to secure over 350,000 products from nearly 100 different brands and retailers. These products were then distributed to over 400 hospitals throughout the UK. She inspired a team of 120 volunteers from a hub in London and Manchester to create in excess of 40,000 goody bags. The appeal also donated tens of thousands of essential toiletries to food banks and homeless shelters, as well as over 6000 bottles of hand soap to schools. The appeal was recognised by the Prime Minister (Point of Light award, June 2020) The Telegraph, Independent, Metro, British Citizens Awards, The Sun and Sunday Times Style.

After applying for BBC1’s Glow Up series one on a whim and reaching the top three, Leigh Easthope has overcome his colour blindness to achieve his makeup artistry dreams. On this episode Leigh chats about how he has learnt to adapt and use his colour deficiency to his advantage and inspire others.
Brought to you by Timely Business Management Software
KEY TAKEAWAYS
When we are affected by colourblindness, the prevailing wisdom from those above us can often be negative - industries can be closed off. But this isn't the case. There is always a way.When you are brought up with issues that don't affect anyone else, it forces you to work harder. it also allows you to gain a stronger insight into what makes things work.When anyone puts their art into the world, you simply have to be brave and develop a thick skin very fast. Not everyone will love what you do, and you need to accept that.If you are trying to get into a creative industry and you have some kind of deficiency, then remember that the more you work with an issue, the easier it becomes to adopt into your work.VALUABLE RESOURCES

As a trailblazer for cruelty-free, vegan products celebrity make-up artist Justine Jenkins has been one of the major forces in raising awareness in the cosmetics industry. This passion led to her writing Sustainable Beauty in December 2021 and today she discusses how if you speak your truth and show passion you can have an impact – and find success.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
A lot of marketing language covers up the truth about the lack of awareness in the beauty industry. Only by raising our voices and making them heard can we get the message out there.When most people think of sustainability, they think of packaging. Packaging is only the tip of the iceberg. We need to ensure that other factors are added, including living wages to employees and waste management.Sometimes the fear of failing can hold us back from our dreams. However, we must balance this fear withe the fear of never trying at all.VALUABLE RESOURCES

Christina discusses her vast experience in the sector, the places from which she has drawn her inspiration, the power of make-up and how it can empower us in positive ways, and how collaboration can inspire and ignite us.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
The power of make-up is that it energises our soul. When we look good, we feel better. It is not always about standing out, but empowering us in a positive way, and giving us the confidence to face the day ahead.The true artists are those who can produce magic - who can take a blank canvas and see beyond what is traditionally possible.Working in and among great creatives allows us to, by osmosis, absorb the tastes, styles and passions of those to whom we aspire.Don't ever take things personally. Remember that business is business. Don't give up, and remember that everything happens for a reason.VALUABLE RESOURCES

When we look around in the world, the ones who try to inject positivity and creativity will not find fault in something bad, but focus instead upon what is good.A face is a unique thing that requires a unique approach.

Sometimes things don't work, but if we can take the learning from it and adjust rapidly, we become trusted and respected.Ideas grow through collaboration and respect. If we find the partners that can help us grow as artists, then our ambitions and goals take flight.VALUABLE RESOURCES

Multi-award winning and world-renowned hairdresser Errol Douglas MBE discusses how he believes hard work and natural flair for styling has been the key to his long term success. Although an ambassador for leading brands, such as Dyson and Living Proof, and former President of the Fellowship for British Hairdressing, Errol explains why his new role with NHS Blood Transplant could be his most important to date.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
It is not always the case that we choose careers. Sometimes, both in business and life, careers choose us. Sometimes we merely answer the call that comes from inside, and follow our instincts.Setbacks can often act as the ignition switch to push ourselves harder. Challenges are lessons learned, and barriers only make us want to push harder.Sometimes the clothes we wear and looks we adopt act as our armour - our unique identity. Presentation is everything.After so many generations, it is incredible to think that anyone in this world has to fight for their place in it. Equality should be expected, not earned.VALUABLE RESOURCES

We create wonders when we collaborate, and allow gifts to combine and spark.Never mistake confidence for aggression.

Fascinated with faces from a young age due to her adopted childhood, Phyllis Cohen chats to Lan about how she turned her obsession with facial features and natural flair for creativity, into a passion for make-up and transformation. Although she had no formal training, Phyllis soon became one of the go-to celebrity make-up artist in the 80’s, Phyllis painting the likes of David Bowie, Tina Turner and Janet Jackson before struggling with her anxieties and the ever-changing industry.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Sometimes we take inspiration not from what see all around us, but from what we do not see around us. In Phyllis's case, her fascination with faces came from being adopted and seeing faces markedly different to her own.Working with make-up is very much learning to paint. First, we need to learn how to see, then we must understand what makes things beautiful about that face.The ones who achieve greatness are the creators and innovators who dedicate themselves to their craft and work hard to gain mastery.There will always be further avenues in which to take the art of make-up. There are realms of possibility ahead for true creators.VALUABLE RESOURCES
