Salary benchmarks
Our take
One half of TV’s Trinny and Susanna, Trinny Woodall made the move from on-screen to business in 2017. The result - Trinny London, a new skincare and beauty brand with a direct-to-consumer eCommerce model that’s growing fast.
One of the brand’s selling points is obviously its face - Trinny Woodall helps push the brand into the public consciousness, but it doesn’t rest on her alone. It offers a range of cream-based products within skincare and makeup - often blurring the lines between the two - in stackable containers aimed at multiple genders. As well as this, its online ‘Match2Me’ tool helps you find the right products for you.
It operates within an overcrowded market, but face recognition and a canny direct-to-consumer, online-first model has helped rapid growth in its first few years. It plans to eventually expand to provide a whole ‘bedroom and bathroom’ range.
