For Zoë Foster Blake, beauty should never be taken too seriously. Growing up in Australia, skincare and makeup equated to great conversation and community-building. But after years working as a beauty editor at Cosmopolitan and Harper’s BAZAAR, she found herself feeling bogged down by the complicated messaging that the industry had to offer. So in 2014, Blake decided to break out and establish her own brand, Go-To Skincare. With witty copy and clean ingredients, Go-To has clearly filled a much-needed gap within the beauty market.

I got to sit down with the queen of K-Beauty herself, Charlotte Cho! Growing up in LA, sunscreen and toner seemed to be completely trivial to Cho. But after moving to South Korea post-grad, she was exposed to her own culture through an entirely new lens: skincare. And so upon returning to the States, she decided to start Soko Glam: an online retail shop completely dedicated to K-Beauty. Today, after eight years in the making, Charlotte has not only introduced the concept of the 10-step skincare routine to the American market, but has democratized beauty in such an unpredictable way. Tune in to hear about Charlotte’s favorite ingredients, her new brand - Then I Met You, and so much more!Links to Products/Resources Mentioned: SKIN: Mizon Snail Cream, Then I Met You Essence, Neogen Micro Essence, Then I Met You Cleansing Balm, Lash Eyeland, COSRX Pimple Patch, Daily Sheet Mask Tissue Box, Skin Concierge, The KlogJoin the Naked Beauty Community on IG: @nakedbeautyplanet Rate, Subscribe & Review the Podcast on Apple Thanks for all the love and support.
