Caroline is so authentic and its why people love her. She knows she gets paid for mentioning brands and she doesn’t shy away or pretend she doesn’t. Like she says, you couldn't pay her enough money to recommend something she doesn’t believe in. Such a unique gem in a world where everyone wants to be the same ❤

[@Caroline1234584]

I've never been this invested in a podcast/video. So interesting, great questions, and two women who I respect.

[@liliadimitrova4371]

Loved how engaging you kept this, you could tell how carefully you were listening to Caroline! One of the best episodes so far, thank you Grace :) 💕💕

[@georgialees1026]

would love some sort of makeup and hair versions of this xx

[@kellietaborsak4164]

I looooove Caroline!! Thanks for sitting down with her

[@Tennisgirl1990]

Fascinating about the damage of smoking and vaping can do to the skin! 49:35

[@marineb7617]

Caroline is our Queen 👸..love her ❤

[@sharonperry8978]

Grace, Caroline’s book(Skincare) is a really good resource to have on hand.

[@SkinandMeHQ]

Yay! We're so pleased you love our Daily Doser Grace 🙌🏝💛

[@mahakandskin]

I cannot express how much I loved this. Hirons is a rockstar. PS: also someone who developed acne in my early 20s (thanks to a stressful corporate job) even though I never had acne as a teenager.

[@Bjm869]

why after every answer from gorgeous Caroline does this girl start talking about herself, I counted 5 times and then couldn't bare it anymore. Also I loved when she was like oh Im gonna use this to get very expensive advice for myself. Caroline was like 'aaaah yeah great'

[@laurawild9710]

Loved this thank you!! Xx

[@LiahYoo]

WE LOVE THIS COLLAB

[@mareesimonis7656]

Thanks Grace .. good job. Xx

[@hayleyking5631]

Love Caroline! ❤

[@meganvictoria5982]

Grace can you please divide your podcast up into labelled segments on ytb very easy to do and means we can skip to bits that are most important to us

[@Grace-Beverley]

i have added chapters !!!

[@meganvictoria5982]

Amazing thank you@@Grace-Beverley

[@mandd4963]

I have immediately bought two of her holy grail recommendations! The woman is an icon ❤

[@user-nz8gz1ne2e]

Love your podcasts! But timestamps would be extremely helpful if this is possible 🫶🏻🤗

[@JeramieSaito]

I love this episode!!!

[@cerahpurba2398]

Yessss Caroline! ❤

[@jayellen]

I struggle with my skin so much, thank you for this video, so helpful 🥰

[@megs_holland]

If you can, get Caroline Hirons' book. It is fabulous!!

[@jayellen]

@@megs_holland thank you, I will order it now 🥰

[@LakeRuby]

So good!!

[@JoannaBojarska]

Caroline…our 👸

[@HOLLYBitMe]

Love listening to this while cooking but the sound quality is really bad - even connected to my speaker on full volume it's soooo quiet :(

[@skincarewithjoanna]

Really enjoyed this! I can’t believe Caroline was able to actually select only 5 (or 6) products 😂

[@naomihandler757]

What I don’t understand is how after 4+ years of following CH I haven’t yet purchased a EH balm…. 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@daisyrobinson3465]

I always wondered why I gravitated to CH I know now x.

[@The.Caroline]

I had acne when I was a teen and it really affected me and I didn't really have the proper products to treat it at the time, I wish I had seen a facialist or derm. My friend was always blowing me off when I told her how much it affected me, but then years later when she got acne herself she actually apologised to me because she realised how hard it is.

[@sharroon7574]

Ironically the worst time I had with my skin started with a bad facial, she did some extractions and drove an infection deep into my skin, I had one spot that lasted years and I went on multiple antibiotics ect. I wish I had just gotten on some good products and left it at that. I did have a nice facial later that was nice and I have nothing against facialists but I got pretty unlucky.

[@Desdetulipandia]

@grace could you please confirm what the body shop product is, that you list in your desert island list? I cant really figure out what product you're talking about 😔

[@bethanyward632]

I think it’s the body shop spf - it’s called skin defence multi-protection light essence spf 50 PA+++

[@tianaclarke9283]

Great discussions but I feel like the questions asked weren’t very structured

[@samantha.almonte]

skincare web designer here! (:

[@gaila.9852]

Grace, are you still into fitness? I miss your content.

[@AmyGodBlessAmerica]

Caroiline has a point of view. And she’s funny. I don’t agree with her on everything (e.g. some of her her non skincare POVs), but I respect her 💯

[@Saroora1xo]

Whats the app called that she is talking about at 38 mins in?

[@sLLeff]

The Skin Rocks I think. I looked it up on her instagram

[@onlz]

SkinRocks

[@ClaireEastham]

I feel like this was a real missed opportunity. There seems to have been little to no research done in advance on Caroline & her history. The questions were incredibly basic & it played more as Grace telling Caroline about HER background, platforms & beliefs!! Completely tone deaf when it came to money & motivations. I loved it when Caroline said "well I needed the money. We had kids!" Yet still Grace doesn't take that subtle hint. Caroline is incredibly well respected because she grafted for years without any of the glamour or security. Really disjointed & disappointing interview.

[@Bjm869]

Agreed

[@mariaprice5972]

Oh boy if she can stop saying really really so much I couldn’t watch it

[@toqirk]

Sorry for saying this but I find this woman Caroline full of herself and bit arrogant 😬

[@shoegal7]

Agreed ... and her skin looks like leather.

[@sammyocgirl7411]

Expert LOL ok

[@kathjagger7852]

Pleaseeee…..you are interviewing someone else…..please stop talking so much!

[@eddiegreene7334]

She is talking so much about herself….not professional at all.

[@PatrycjaWiszowaty-gc8rt]

you look so bored throughout the interview, resting your head, looking away. That’s not what good interviewers do😬 you can tell you’re only doing this for views.

[@LannaSmith]

let a girl rest her head ???

[@PatrycjaWiszowaty-gc8rt]

@@LannaSmith it looks unprofessional

[@marineb7617]

Caroline is our Queen 👸 love her ❤

[@Jasmine-lj1ou]

Considering her age, the amount of specialist products she uses, her use of fillers/botox etc...her skin really doesn't look that good. I would expect a skincare 'expert' to have more youthful skin than their age.

[@mimi-sz9kb]

Shes had work done too!!!!!

[@b_arose]

Glad someone else said this!

[@sharroon7574]

You have to remember that a lot of women her age ( somethkng she has admitted to) went out in the sun a lot. Genetics also plays a role
