Talking beauty with: Katie Jane Hughes
The latest podcast episode with makeup artist to the stars, Instagram legend and beauty entrepreneur KJH
*I’m a little early posting this week… But I’ll have something juicy for you on Thursday too!*
When I made my list for making these episodes as detailed here, I’ll be honest: Katie Jane topped it. Of course, there were others I’d love have spoken to, but simply no one is more sound, more fun, more real and more easy to talk to than she is (I was lucky enough to interview her in real life a few years back so *can confirm*). And with almost 900,000 dedicated followers on Instagram, I’m clearly not the only one who thinks so.
Based in New York, she’s got a client list that would make your eyes water (Rosie Huntington Whiteley, Hailey Bieber, Lily Allen, Ashley Graham, Hailee Steinfeld) and she’s never, ever pretentious about anything. She doesn’t use filters on her imagery, which is so refreshing, and she’s absolutely the most trustworthy of beauty influencers. Her style – while not the main thing she focuses on – is next level, and I frequently covet the things in her outfit posts.
I’m sorry, can you deal?! This is from her Instagram @katiejanehughes.
Anyway, on to the episode: Once again, I’m trying to remain calm throughout this interview, but probably fail miserably. I’m unable to contain my excitement when I am a true fan of someone or something – case and point KJH.
