Meet the writer
Claire Moss
“Most "glow" is lighting. The rest we can explain.”
Claire came to beauty writing from the counter side: years of matching foundation under bad department-store lighting taught her that most "glow" is a lamp and a good retoucher. She covers skincare, red-carpet prep and the treatments stars actually admit to, and she will say plainly when an ingredient list is doing nothing. Her test for any product is simple: would she buy it again with her own money. She rarely does, which is why her shelf is suspiciously small.
