“Beauty seems surface level, but it’s something that once you start talking about you can get really deep on. If someone talks to me about a breakout on their skin, usually we end up talking about something that’s going on in their personal life. So it becomes this thing you can really build relationships around,” says Brooke DeVard Ozaydinli, host of the Naked Beauty Podcast. In this episode of Clean Beauty School, mindbodygreen beauty director Alexandra Engler and DeVard chat about community building through beauty, how our relationships influence our sense of self, and the best word-of-mouth product recommendations.
