Anita Bhagwandas is a leading voice in challenging conventional beauty standards. Through her work as an award-winning journalist, broadcaster, and author, Anita examines the complex intersection of beauty with race, privilege, subcultures, and social media.
As the author of UGLY: Why the World Became Beauty Obsessed and How to Break Free, Anita has established herself as an authority on beauty culture critique. Her insights are regularly featured across television and radio, while her popular Substack newsletter "The Powder Room" offers thoughtful analysis of beauty trends and myths.
Through her work, Anita helps organisations navigate the increasingly complex beauty and wellness landscape by providing historical context and cultural analysis that reveal how beauty standards impact consumer behaviour, brand perception, and workplace dynamics. Her research-backed approach enables companies to develop more inclusive marketing strategies and authentic messaging that resonates with diverse audiences.
Audiences leave Anita's presentations equipped to identify harmful beauty myths in their thinking, strategies for creating more inclusive brand communications, and a deeper understanding of how beauty standards shape social hierarchies and consumer decisions across different demographics.
