Creators. Brands. Connection. An event bringing together creators, journalists, and leading voices across beauty and media - hosted by @zak.heath in collaboration with @sephorauk and the @britishbeautycouncil For the @compactnetwork first event, the focus was clear; meaningful conversations, intentional networking, and a space built for real connection. We were brought in to capture the interactions, the atmosphere, and the highlights. Grateful to have been involved in documenting a well-executed event, and to work alongside a team that delivered something considered, focused, and impactful from start to finish. #document #highlights #brand #creator

It’s been a while since our last catch-up but across cultures, content and conversations the RNC world has been busier than ever! From cinematically produced realities like Jasmine’s Mahila Intimates ‘Dinner Date’ to societal takes such as Maxine’s exploration of the long-standing Nike and Adidas rivalry, our roster continues to offer thought-provoking pieces. Zak’s highly anticipated first beauty summit Compact came to life alongside viral moments like Tobi’s infamous abs which reminded us to hit the gym. As always we’re proud to spotlight the talent shaping RNC ♡

Most people think PR is about visibility. Being seen, being in the right rooms, knowing the right people. But what actually matters is what happens in between. The way you show up, the way you connect, and how you move without forcing anything. Because the moment something feels forced, people notice. And that’s usually where opportunities are lost. Real PR is built on trust. And trust is what creates opportunities. Do you go into rooms with intention or do you just let things happen? ✨ #prtips #networkingtips #beauty

London wasn’t just about content. It was about conversations, connections and creating moments that don’t always get seen. Balancing beauty and business has shown me that both matter — but the most valuable part will always be the people you meet along the way. Still building, still learning, still connecting. Stay tuned for more. ✨

This was unexpected 😀 You live and you learn I guess and I did from hosting my very first ever event! I thought I’d be transparent as people always share their viral wins but not the financial investments behind the scenes! I learnt a lot from this event regarding negotiating deals, how the brands operate internally and how EXPENSIVE hosting an event really is! Onwards and upwards though for the next @compactnetwork which I’m planning for November ahh! 🙌🏼 Using… @sulwhasoo.official @cultbeauty Lip Balm @mphbeauty @sephorauk Contour @pradabeauty Setting Powder @juliettehasagun Banana Rush @realbarrier_global @pureseouluk Moisturiser . . . . . . . . . #compactnetwork #creatorjourney #beautyandbusiness #influencerofinfluencers

i was always told that creative jobs aren't real careers, that social media and marketing won't take you anywhere, that the biggest mistake i made was not going to medical school BUT... people underestimate where creativity can take you, this event @zak.heath @compactnetwork truly proved to me that there is a full industry of likeminded people and i'm so glad to work with such amazing creatives who share the same passion and values✨ social media truly is the tool that opens up so many opportunities in life! #dayi̇nmylife #dayinmylifevlog #relatable

I did ittt!! I hosted my first ever event which @sephorauk and the @britishbeautycouncil supported! 🫶🏼 @compactnetwork started as my final project at Central Saint Martins @csm_news where I interviewed some incredible people within the beauty industry but what stayed with me was how valuable access, education and honest conversations about this industry really are! After graduating, the vision was to create a space beyond a project and I wanted to bring the creator industry together. A place where honest conversations could be had with influencers, brands, journalists, creatives and the wider beauty community in the same room! We’re in a digital revolution and the creator economy is rapidly changing as content has become the desired job for millions around the world. However, being a creator, I get to see how the brands work with all types of people at the same time as being in a very lonely job. Being a beauty creator means that you’re constantly alone in your room talking to the camera, so I wanted Compact to be a place where people learn from each other to talk about where the industry is heading. Seeing Compact come to life with people and brands who believed in the vision, honestly meant everything. It made me realise that these conversations we were having on the day are needed. People loved the Boys In Beauty panel for example because a brand hasn’t ever spotlighted the boys like we did at Compact! So what’s the mission you ask? Compact will be about building access, sharing knowledge and creating opportunities for the next generation of beauty creatives! This was just the first step and I’m so excited to see what happens next! Thank you to all of the brands who like me didn’t know what the day would look like, but I appreciate you for believing in Compact! @anastasiabeverlyhills @kayali @weledauk @donbeauty @sephoracollection Photographs by @katietruemanphotos @luca.andrea_ @javieravisuals #compactnetwork #compactconversations #beautyandbusiness #beautyfounder

March was a good month. 🩷 I launched back into work mode after a tough January & February and couldn’t have asked for a more jam-packed month of Press Previews, skin & hair care discoveries, joining the @platinummaguk Beauty Panel judging team for 2026 and finally taking that Ford Mustang for a spin on the most perfect Spring day. Thank you to the amazing brands and PRs for a genuinely fabulous month, you really put the bounce back into my step and I can’t wait to get April underway. So much to look forward to. Happy 1st of the month to you. #midlifeblogger #over40style #skincarethatworks #uklifestyleblogger #fiftyandfabulous
