Lollie King is the Senior Beauty Writer at Marie Claire UK. Lollie has over eight years of experience in journalism and has a special interest in beauty and cultural stories.
The women in Lollie’s family passed down secrets to her as a child, enabling her to experiment with colour from an early age. But after seeing very few women of colour at the forefront of the industry Lollie knew this was a space she wanted to make a name for herself in.
Lollie loves deep dives into cultural beauty stories like the history of black beauty and strives to show that beauty is not a one size fits all but beauty is for all.
After graduating from Warwick University with a BA Hons in English Literature and Spanish Lollie started her career at Bustle UK working across entertainment and beauty. She has since written for a number of high well regarded newspapers and magazines including The Times, Stylist, Independent and Evening Standard. As well as her writing career Lollie has built a successful career as a presenter and voice over artist working on press junkets, news bulletins and more. Most recently, she hosted a regional arts and culture show with the BBC.
