Love Laura Podcast

This week, Laura & Holly are joined by Linda Stinson, founder of Bellamianta and Iconic Bronze, for an honest and inspiring conversation about building a beauty empire.

Linda shares her expert tanning tips (and why everyone’s skin is completely different), plus what goes into developing new formulas.

The girls also chat about the exciting opening of Linda’s brand-new store on March 7th, the stress and pressure behind launching a physical retail space, refitting a shop, and balancing rapid growth with family life.

They dive into some major milestones:

Selling over 1 million units

Becoming a best-selling tanning brand in Boots

Securing Primark as a major retail partner

Collaborating with Maura Higgins

Why your brand has to stand on its own before doing big-name collabs

Linda also opens up about her long-term goals for the business, healthy competition within the beauty industry, and what it truly takes to scale successfully.

A must-listen for anyone who loves beauty, business, and big ambition.

This week on Love Laura, it’s a FULL catch-up and we have a lot to unpack 👀

We’re diving straight into the Sephora drama everyone’s talking about, plus giving you all the behind-the-scenes details from our biggest WIW event yet - 400 people coming to The Merchant, two back-to-back sold out shows, and multiple amazing pop-ups all under one roof. We still can’t believe it 🥹

Our long-awaited China samples have officially arrived back to WIW, and we’re sharing how it feels seeing everything finally come together after the buying trip.

Holly updates us on the work happening at her house (reno stress is real), we chat about New York Fashion Week, Molly-Mae’s pregnancy news, skincare days, leaky gut, Valentine’s plans and everything in between.

It’s chaotic, exciting, emotional and very us.

As always - grab a cuppa and let’s get into it

In this episode of Love Laura, Laura & Holly are back for a proper catch-up 

They kick things off chatting all things Victoria Beckham family drama (because… obviously), before Holly shares how she’s dipping her toes into YouTube and what that journey’s been like so far.

The girls also get into digestion and gut health, sharing a few tips and habits they picked up while travelling in China that they’re still using now 

Laura opens up about her house plans, chatting through the excitement (and stress) of building, and the girls ask listeners for any must-know tips or advice for anyone who’s been through the process

They wrap things up by talking about work plans moving forward, what’s changing, what’s staying the same, and what they’re excited about next.

As always - relaxed chats, honest thoughts, and plenty of laughs 🤍

The girls are finally back from China!

In Episode 28, we’re diving into the full recap of their buying trip - from what the days were really like, to how well they were looked after by the suppliers throughout the trip. They chat through the highlights, the challenges, and what surprised them most along the way.

There’s also plenty of talk about the food (some amazing, some very different 👀), the pace of the trip, and how it felt navigating such a busy and exciting environment. To top it all off, they finished the journey with some serious skincare shopping in Hong Kong. An honest, behind-the-scenes look at work, travel, and everything in between.

Episode 27 is live while the girls are in China

In this episode, they chat all things January launches and what’s coming up next, including the New Love Laura Merchant Spring Event and how you can get tickets. They also catch up on everything that’s setting the tone for Q1, from new jeans, pop-up shops, and kick-starting the year with a bang, to the Molly-Mae x Adidas collaboration, New Year’s resolutions, and making better choices going forward.

There’s plenty of life chat too, with Laura sharing her new house plans, what they’ve been watching on TV lately, and answering listener questions to wrap things up. A perfect episode to reset, refocus, and start the year strong.
