Beauty Isolation: Kelly McCarren, Content Queen & You Beauty Co-Host




Beauty Island show

Summary: An unusual (and innovative) use for your partner's beard trimmer... Hello and welcome to Beauty Island, the award-nominated beauty podcast that celebrates life and lipstick. I'm your host, beauty journalist, Brittany Stewart and this is another episode of Beauty Isolation, a special mini series of Beauty Island. Normally, I ask my guests about the 8 beauty products that have a special memory or meaning for them. The ones they'd take to a desert island, or Beauty Island, that I am sending them off to. In Beauty Isolation, instead they pick the 8 products that have played a significant role in quarantine. The ones they're using, ditching or rediscovering in isolation. Twice a week, we'll explore how their relationship to beauty has changed during this time, as well as conversations around self-care, how they're going, and what they're most looking forward to. Today my guest is content queen Kelly McCarren. She's the host of not one but two podcasts: You Beauty and Overshare, as well as sharing much hilarious social and video content. She's funny and vivacious, and if you've read her work or listened to overshare, she's not afraid to get TMI. We talked about going freelance before a global pandemic, the best skincare oils to try, an unusual use for a beard trimmer - and she had plenty of book and podcast recommendations for the true crime lovers. As always, the links to all the products Kelly talks about in this episode will be in the show-notes. If you enjoy the podcast, please subscribe, rate and review, and share with a friend.
