The Charisse Report

It’s the first episode of a brand new year, and in this episode I’m talking about the Ins and Outs lists that we’ve been seeing all over social media. As well as sharing my own list, which includes beauty, social media etiquette and gatekeeping – I want to bring it back! – I share some ins and outs from other fashion and beauty names, including former guest Mandy Lee, the fashion writer and analyst who’s also known as @oldloserinbrooklyn. I also share some comments from Kirbie Johnson, co-host of the Gloss Angeles podcast. Of course, I also want to know your ins and outs – or, tell me if you’re over these lists already! DM me @beautymepodcast on Instagram or X and let me know. For me the lists are a bit of fun but can also be useful in the sense that it doesn’t hurt to think about our habits from time to time, and see if we might want to change something. If you're listening on Spotify be sure to add your ins and outs in the poll on the show page! Above all else, I hope you enjoyed this episode. If you did, it would be great if you could review, share and subscribe. See you next time!

It’s the final episode of 2023 and because it's been quite a year, I'm ending on the concept of selfcare. In this episode I'm sharing my thoughts on several body creams, lotions and exfoliants that are all aimed at caring for your skin in the colder months. I’d love to know if you’ve tried any of the products I mention before and I’d really love to know the products that you consider to be your essentials when it comes to hydrating your winter skin. Let me know in the DMs over on @beautymepodcast on Instagram or X and feel free to get in touch over on my TikTok @charissekenion. As mentioned this is the last episode of 2023 so I want to thank you for every single time you’ve hit play on an episode of the Beautyme Podcast. See you next year.

This week I'm talking about the beauty I’ve discovered in several of the shows I’ve been watching lately. You'll hear my thoughts on two Apple TV+ shows; The Supermodels, a 4-part docuseries on the quintessential ‘90s supermodels, and The Buccaneers, an 8-part story about young American women taking over London in the 1870s. I’m also talking about The Other Black Girl, American Horror Story Delicate and finally the Bethann Hardison documentary Invisible Beauty. Where possible I’ll give each show a rating out of 5. Please let me know if you’ve watched any of the shows I mention this episode! You can DM me @beautymepodcast on X or Instagram and I’ll also post a poll for my Spotify listeners. Also, I’ll be asking you what you can recommend for me so I can share with other listeners. In the meantime, if you enjoyed this episode, I’d love if you could rate it or write a review and definitely, absolutely share it with anyone who needs something new to watch! Thank you as always for listening. I’ll see you next time.

Today’s episode is all about the complexity of hair, from two very different angles. The first segment of the show is going to be a conversation with Theatre Peckham CEO and Artistic Director Suzann McLean about her new all-black cast production of the classic European fairytale Rapunzel – a story about a young girl trapped in a tower in the woods with her only means of possible escape being her extremely long hair. The second segment sees me with my friend and collaborator Winnie Awa of The Hair Lab podcast discussing how our first event, HAIR TALKS went. Thanks as always for listening – it means the world, and if you enjoyed do please rate the show on Spotify and review on Apple Podcasts or anywhere else you like to listen.

It’s been about a year since my friend and former guest Winnie Awa, founder of Carra, an AI-led personalised hair advice platform, said that we really wanted to start a series of events. Back then I always knew it would be called Hair Talks – because, well, our hair literally talks – and I think as women of colour in particular, how we style or dress our hair speaks volumes but is not always interpreted correctly. I'm so excited to say that our very first event is happening this Monday and that, moving forward, you can expect HAIR TALKS to be an ongoing series of conversations around the complexity of textured hair. So, in this short episode I'm sharing a little bit more about why it started, and where we see it going. There's still time to book yourself a free ticket if you live in London - and grab a gorgeous goodie bag featuring goodies from Camille Rose, Pacifica, Liha Beauty and more!

If you can’t make it on the night, feel free to reach out to me on social media @beautymepodcast on Instagram and X formerly known as Twitter, and for the Spotify listeners I’ll create a poll for you to get involved with. That’s all for this week. Thank you so much for listening during these uncertain times; your support means the world.

This week’s guest is the wonderful, inspiring and insightful Cyndia Harvey, a London-based hair artist who has been recognised for her contribution to fashion by The British Fashion Council and was labelled as a Beauty Game-Changer by Vogue Business in their inaugural ‘100 Future Innovators’ list. In this episode, Cyndia looks back fondly at how her Jamaican upbringing instilled in her an ingenuity that has always fed her creativity and she also shares on her love for Vipassana Meditation and explains why she feels apprehensive about labelling something as beautiful. I’d love to know if Cyndia's words have the same impact on you as they had on me.

It’s another 5-minute review and this week it’s Prada Beauty’s Monochrome Hyper Matte Lipstick. In these short episodes I tell you what the product is, what the brand says about it and break down the packaging, the smell and feel, and give it a mark out of 5 based on whether it matches the claims on the website and how it performed for me. This product was purchased by me but since recording the brand has sent me three other shades, including the Soft Matte formula, so I'll be sure to let you know my thoughts on that one on my socials! I’d love to know if you’ve tried this product or if there’s another product you want me to do a 5-minute review on.

This week we’re looking at the hair and makeup creatives who brought the cast of the new Sofia Coppola movie Priscilla to life. I’ve split the show into three segments; starting with a little background into the making of the biopic, then I’ll be sharing my conversation with Cliona Furey, Head of Hair Design on the movie before sharing some behind the scenes product information from Jo-Ann MacNeil, Head of Makeup Design and find out how she turned actress Cailee Spaeny into Priscilla. Also, if you want to see some visuals from the movie, I’ve made a few TikToks which you can find at https://www.tiktok.com/@charissekenion and if you’re one of my US-based listeners I’d love to know your thoughts on the movie if you’ve seen it!

This week I’ve got a very special guest because it's my first time welcoming a BeautyMe listener on to the show. A few weeks ago I put out an invitation on Instagram Stories for any listeners who wanted to be my guest and talk beauty. London-based Executive Assistant, writer and curator Jasmine Pierre is my first listener guest and the conversation was so much fun and brought up a lot of thinking points for me personally. In this episode, Jasmine shares her morning routine with some really useful tips for anyone who lives with eczema, and takes me through her early beauty influences, from her mum and grandma, to her schoolfriends and then, as so many of us have experienced: Tumblr.

It’s another 5-minute review and this week it’s the Milk Makeup Hydro Grip Face Primer. In these short episodes I tell you what the product is, what the brand says about it, break down the packaging, the smell and feel, and give it a mark out of 5 based on whether it matches the claims on the website and how it performed for me. For consistency, when it comes to the ingredients part I will often refer to incidecoder.com, a website specifically created for ingredient advice.
