Summary
Emma Hoareau is a self-confessed skincare obsessive and a social media influencer with a huge following across Instagram and Youtube. From her curated feed you could think her life is perfect and nothing bothers her but, as she explains during our conversation, she’s faced crises of confidence over her creative ability, taken time to feel positive and at peace in her own skin and, as a result of so much change in her childhood, has an almost cavalier approach to change.
Emma’s creative mentorship and collection How To By Emma is open to mentees now.
