Curious Beauty with Marie

HONEST MAKEUP & BRAND REVIEWS

Curious Beauty with Marie is a UK makeup channel focused on honest makeup brand reviews and real-world product testing. I help you decide what’s actually worth buying – from high street makeup to luxury makeup.

Expect full brand reviews, brand deep dives, best and worst edits, winners and losers, and practical advice to help you shop smarter. I regularly compare drugstore vs luxury makeup and share clear, no-hype verdicts on what works and what doesn’t.

I’m Marie – a former corporate professional with a background in art and design – now using that analytical eye to review beauty through a real-world lens.

I asked. You spoke. I listened. 💬✨📊

Over the last few weeks I’ve been running polls here to understand what you actually want from this channel. And you were wonderfully clear. Here’s what you told me:
• You prefer natural beauty over extreme procedures 🌿💆‍♀️
• You’re most interested in mix & match makeup – not just drugstore or luxury 💄🛍️
• You want makeup and beauty content first, far more than lifestyle or “life chapter” themes 💋
• Your top request is product reviews before you buy 🛒🔍
• You’re most likely to click on brand comparisons and decision-led videos ⚖️👀
• You prefer videos in the 10–25 minute range ☕🎥
• And when asked what you want more of in 2026, the overwhelming answer was…
Makeup & beauty for women over 40/50 💖🌟

That tells me something very clear:

You don’t want fluff 🙅‍♀️
You want help making good decisions 🧠✔️
You want to know what’s actually worth buying 💷✨

So this year, this channel is becoming more focused on:
• Honest makeup and skincare reviews 🔍💄
• Brand deep dives and comparisons 🧪📊
• “Best & worst” edits 🚦
• Real-world testing across drugstore and luxury 💸🏷️
• Content that helps you buy better, not just watch more 🛍️➡️💡

This isn’t a change away from you.
It’s a change towards what you’ve asked for. 🤍

Thank you for telling me what you want.
Now I get to build it with you. 🫶✨
