Tori is a freelance beauty journalist and contributor for Marie Claire. She has written for various titles, including Allure, Glamour, Elle, Refinery29, Brides, and more. Previously beauty editor at POPSUGAR, she has reviewed thousands of products, interviewed countless celebrities and brand founders, and also explored various issues relating to women’s health.
There’s nothing Tori is more passionate about in beauty than nails, which is why she’s training to be a nail tech. Her first true love, she’s always experimenting with nail art and on the look out for new trends and exciting innovations. Tori’s aim with beauty has always been to never gatekeep a good beauty secret, regularly combine high-end luxuries with affordable finds, and help people make sense of this fast-paced industry.
When Tori isn’t quizzing beauty experts or painting her nails, she’s often found walking her Rescue dog Pip in the Oxfordshire countryside, seeking out the best coffee outside of London, and consuming as many croissants as she can.
