NEW+NOTEWORTHY: NOVEMBER (v. NEW+NOT WORTHY which I’m sorely tempted to do next year but it’s probably better to focus on the good stuff, so here’s the “what’s worth a look” line-up for this month!)
Two of the biggest beauty stories, of course, are #NewVogue (aka new editor in chief Edward Enninful) which bodes well for a much more ethnically diverse Vogue. Because the British mag has a shockingly unevolved “white models only on the cover” history – so far – when it comes to covers.  Even though the US version is better, there’s room for improvement from a diversity perspective – as there is for so many makeup brands that don’t release enough shades for all skin shades.
There are two big gaps in beauty – this is one of them and the other, as I see it, is the huge reticence by brands to openly create products for, and market to, women who are over 50. “Come ON” as they say!) Actually make that three big gaps – the third is decent, natural lipsticks that have staying power, are densely pigmented taste good and are free-from…thin on the ground but this is a tough nut to crack formula-wise.
