Fashion is easily connectable to sustainability, using the ideas within "fast fashion" and such. But with beauty products and cosmetics, this relationship is less obvious.
How do fashion, beauty products and cosmetics adversely affect
climate and our ecosphere?
Come find out all the ways these topics intersect.
Journalist Jessica DeFino, a former editor for the Kardashian-Jenner Official Apps, and a beauty journalist whose work can be found in Vogue, ELLE, Allure, VICE and more.
In this talk, with Q&A, Jessica takes us behind the scenes of the beauty industry to reveal how beauty standards are created and consumed, how they contribute to the climate crisis, and how we might work toward an understanding of beauty that doesn't harm the planet and its people.
