Summary

Some leftovers from my discussion with Ashley Weatherford (senior editor at Into the Gloss) and Utibe Mbagwu (social at Into the Gloss)! We talk about the challenge of being 'the only one' and what it's like the sole person of color on a team. Utibe and Ashley share their transition to going natural and thoughts about how the beauty conversation has changed over the years. Utibe, who manages social for @intothegloss, shares some insights on social strategy and her must-have beauty products [like retinol from a french pharmacy naturally].
