Summary
Join Ginny Newbury on the Eat Love Do show as she chats with Sue Moxley, the UK’s leading beauty expert who’s had a fascinating journey from fashion model to makeup artist to beauty editor. Starting her modeling career in 1976, Sue worked her way up to become the beauty editor of The Sun newspaper after boldly asking Rebecca Brooks to create a beauty page that didn’t exist. Her story takes dramatic turns through the phone hacking scandal that affected her makeup brand, but she emerged stronger with valuable wisdom about the beauty industry.
At 62, Sue is living proof that beauty and vitality don’t diminish with age, sharing honest insights about navigating menopause and the evolving beauty landscape. From essential makeup hygiene tips (replace mascara monthly!) to the realities of perimenopause and how social media has transformed beauty marketing, this conversation offers both practical advice and inspiring life lessons. Sue’s journey from Essex girl to industry expert demonstrates that resilience, self-care, and the courage to ask for what you want can create extraordinary opportunities at any stage of life.
