Alison Young is a beauty powerhouse.

She is hugely respected and trusted by brand owners, CEOs, PRs, marketeers and, most importantly, her core fan base of real women at home. During her 30 years’ industry experience, Alison trained as a beauty therapist, counting A-listers and Royalty among her clientele, before becoming the UK’s youngest ever Head of Training at Clarins.
