Ep. 291: The Week in Beauty; monumental minimalism at Calvin Klein’s NYFW show plus medical wigs with Yumiko Hikage and Meet the Founder with Daniel Isaacs of Medik8

Today it’s a week in beauty episode sharing my thoughts on themonumental minimalism of Calvin Klein’s return to NYFW after a 6-year hiatus, and I’m also sharing an important conversation with the lovely Yumiko Hikage, a Japanese stylist based in Paris who is changing the face of medical wigs for women experiencing cancer treatment-related hairloss.

Finally I’m also sharing the first meet the founder interview of 2025, with founding partner of the truly innovative skincare brand Medik8, Daniel Isaacs.

I'd love to know your thoughts, on medical wigs, minimalism or Vitamin C! So send me a DM on Instagram or chat with me on Threads @charisse_kenion and if you’re listening on Spotify you can tell me your thoughts direct as we can now chat with each other now!
