In episode 141 of the Glow Journal podcast, host Gemma Dimond talks to the co founder of Outside Beauty & Skincare, Maddison Brown.
Outside Beauty & Skincare is not your average celebrity beauty brand. I already knew this, but it just becomes more and more clear the longer you speak to Maddison for.
Given how impressive her career has been thus far (acting opposite Nicole Kidman when she was still a teenager, then spending 4 seasons in the role of Kirby Anders in Dynasty on The CW), you’d be forgiven for assuming this is another private label brand- an existing product with a celebrity endorsement attached. But this is so far from the case here.
Outside Beauty & Skincare, which launched in January of this year, is just Maddison and her sister, Allyson. They’ve self-funded, they spent the 12 months prior to launch working through every single stage of starting a business themselves, and in just under a year they’ve brought four (five if we include the Kabuki brush) really, really beautiful sun protection products to market (with plenty more in the pipeline).
In this conversation, Maddison shares the surprising differences in the response to Dynasty across Europe and Australia compared to the show’s home in the US, her refreshingly level-headed approach to social media (and the media in general), and why she thinks Australia’s famously strict regulations around sunscreen are a really, really positive thing.
