Ep. 284: Is your skincare ruining your sex life? Do we really need Vitamin C for glowing skin? Esthetician and skincare expert Alicia Lartey answers all these questions and more

BeautyMe with Charisse Kenion

Today’s guest is Alicia Lartey, a London-based esthetician, skincare expert and cosmetic chemist student who also works in new product development.

As such we talk a lot about skincare and Alicia’s approach is really refreshing, especially when it comes to brands who have always put diversity at the forefront of their offerings - not just because it's a trend.

However we don’t just talk about the products we put onto our skin; Alicia is also candid about her journey towards feeling comfortable in her own skin, especially when it comes to her health.

She also shares on her hilarious early experiments with makeup involving her mum’s Estée Lauder Double Wear foundation!
