Review: This Is Not A Beauty Podcast from L'Oreal
Celebrity narrators are sometimes featured on branded company podcasts, though it's not as prevalent as on general interest shows. The name recognition can be a boost to the podcast's visibility, but it really shines when the celebrity speaks from their own experience about the underlying themes of the show.
This show from L’Oreal is hosted by legendary Italian actress Isabella Rossellini and I liked it from the start with the provocative title. Each episode tackles a different angle on what beauty means in the world today, like aging, physical abilities, and health. It's a cool concept, we'll executed, and Rossellini is the perfect host. She speaks to her own experience as an actor, but also as a mother and grandmother. The six episode mini season from late 2024 is definitely worth listening to.
