Today, I am talking with writer Christine Morrison. After working for Olay and Calvin Klein, Christine has become a writer with a mission and purpose to focus on fashion as it relates to our identity and well-being. She writes that she is "committed to exploring and exposing the grey areas that burden us all in fashion, beauty and wellness. Oft through the lens of aging."
Christine wants to help "consumers be informed, not influenced."
Together, she and I wade through the question of how you embrace beauty culture without losing your soul to it, especially as an aging woman.
Specifically, we discuss:
How to apply a “less is more” philosophy to the beauty industry
The parallels between Botox and fillers with exercise and healthy eating
How Christine stepped out of writing for the beauty industry
Exploring the grey areas and paradoxes of beauty and aging
Has youth preserving measures made us afraid of aging?
The privileges of aging
Fashion as a form of identity
How to get your soul back if you sold it to the beauty industry
