| 06 Sep 2021 | Freck Beauty - Inventing The World’s First Freckle Cosmetic And Celebrating Individuality ft. Remi Brixton | 00:53:55 | |
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.
