One of my favourite magazines? Nope, it’s not Vogue, not Marie-Claire, nor Grazia. It’s a trade title called Cosmetics International. On the round of Christmas In July press launches, I turned into something of a stalker trying to catch up on the trail of the lovely Vivienne, who edits Cosmetics International to badger her for a free copy! In the end, my quest was rewarded (in Fortnum & Mason of all places!), so these juicy snippets come courtesy of CI.
