Lucy Partington is a London-based beauty journalist and content creator with almost 15 years experience covering skincare, fragrance and beauty trends and product reviews. Having always loved makeup, she began writing about beauty in the late 2000s through her own blog while studying for a journalism degree, before spending a decade in editorial roles at Cosmopolitan and Stylist. Now a freelance beauty editor, she contributes to titles including Glamour, The Telegraph, Stylist, Elle UK, The Independent’s IndyBest, Fabulous and Boots Health & Beauty, covering everything from product testing and ingredient deep dives to emerging beauty trends.
Lucy regularly speaks to and interviews dermatologists, brand founders, cosmetic scientists and industry insiders, and tests hundreds of products each year. She is particularly interested in SPF, skin barrier health, Korean skincare and the innovations shaping the future of beauty. When she’s not writing, Lucy spends most of her time either testing skincare, searching for her next signature fragrance or planning her next spin class.
