Ep. 65: Learning to find resilience during lockdown with makeup artist Rachael Todd

This week’s episode marks a kind of return to some good old lockdown content. I really wanted to reach out to someone who has tried to keep themselves busy during this time so I chose London-based makeup artist Rachael Todd. We’ve been chatting in the DMs for a while now and I really wanted to have Rachael on for a relaxed conversation about how lockdown has us feeling as creatives and makeup lovers.

I wanted to find out what Rachael misses most about not being able to take on her usual makeup bookings, how she’s adjusted to being at home a lot more and how she copes with those not so great days. I also wanted to find out how she first got into beauty and how she pivoted to creating beauty content during this time.

If you want to know know about Rachael be sure to follow her @rtmkup and @makeupyourmood and you can check out the video snippets of our chat over at @beautymepodcast. Thanks so much for listening! Do please rate, review and subscribe and don't forget to share any episodes that you love!
