Amy Starr - Former Beauty and Lifestyle Director at Elle Australia, Associate Editor, Jones




Beauty Island show

Summary: Hello and welcome to Beauty Island, the beauty podcast that celebrates life and lipstick. I'm your host, beauty journalist, Brittany Stewart, and each episode I sit down with a guest to ask them about the 8 beauty products that have a special memory or meaning for them, that they'd take to a desert island, or Beauty Island, that I am sending them off too. Along the way we find out more about their life, career and the people and events that have shaped them into who they are today. Today my guest is Former ELLE Australia Beauty and Lifestyle Director, Amy Starr. Working for almost 15 years across just two titles - Shop Til You Drop and Elle, Amy is now embarking on a new chapter after ELLE - as Associate Editor, of JONES, David Jones magazine. We talk about going from men's surf magazines to a career in beauty, going on a glamorous press trip and not having her luggage turn up, so having to spend the entire few days in her plane outfit, why doing your brows is the single most anti-ageing thing you can do in your beauty routine and the skin saving serum she's sworn by for over a decade. Plus, her most powerful female friendship and SO much more. Enjoy. If you love Beauty Island, please subscribe, rate and review!
