EP 129 | Rationale’s Founder Richard Parker On Respecting The Skin & Why Everyone Loves The Essential Six

In today's final episode of Beauty Talk, Eleanor Pendleton (Founder & Publisher), Danielle Gay (Editor) and Rose Garnett (Beauty Editor) sit down to celebrate their time spent in your ears, as Gritty Pretty comes to an end after 10 amazing years. To celebrate this chapter ending, we've dedicated this Beauty Talk episode to reflecting on some of our favourite and most memorable interviews–including pinch-us moments with Hollywood icons like Drew Barrymore, and inspiring stories from incredible Australian women such as Turia Pitt, to name a few. And, of course, what would Beauty Talk be without discussing budget/bougie buys? First up, Eleanor, Dani and Rose let you in on their latest beauty favourites, including a budget moisturiser everyone should have on their shelf. 



Finally, we want to thank you, dear listener, and our wider reader community, for all your support over the past 10 years. Gritty Pretty has always held our community at the heart of everything we do, and it has been a pleasure creating content you love.

EP 136 | Jaye Edwards Reveals The Secret To Your Best Hair Yet

In this episode of Beauty Talk, Rose Garnett (beauty editor) sits down with the cover star of Gritty Pretty Magazine's March 2024 issue–musician, Kita Alexander.
She's Australia's answer to Dua Lipa with the lyrical prowess of Taylor Swift but what makes Kita Alexander even more impressive is that she is taking on the music industry with a husband and two kids in tow. On the precipice of launching her debut album, Young In Love!, the 28-year-old is getting comfortable with stepping into her authenticity and being real–and her fans are loving her for it. 

Here, Kita and Rose chat about everything from trusting the universe to navigating motherhood and the inspiration behind her new album. Oh, and of course Kita also spilled on the beauty bits she cannot live without.
