Welcome to our new segment, where we will be giving you a monthly roundup and lowdown on things that have happened to us and within the beauty industry throughout the month. What a month April has been! Listen in to find out how we have found the re-opening of our salon, our exciting new role as Elim Mentors and our experience attending Navy Educate. Hold on to you hats ladies and gentlemen as we have an incredible story to share with you that includes some pretty big names such as Number 10 Downing Street and Boris Johnson. We won’t say no more!

For our first behind the brand episode we talk to Hannah and Sophie Pycroft, the fashion loving sisters behind the brand Spectrum Collections. Known for their bright and beautiful makeup brushes, the Barry Island ladies share with us their inspiration behind starting Spectrum Collections and how they stood out from the crowd and other big players.

Hannah and Sophie started their business from their garage but have scaled to be a globally recognised brand that has taken social media by storm. We discuss the incredible highs, such as their Disney collaborations and visit to 10 Downing Street along with the terrible lows they have overcome including a tragic warehouse fire that destroyed nearly all their stock. It was a pleasure getting to virtually meet Hannah and Sophie and we hope you leave this podcast feeling as inspired as we did.
