Founder and CEO of Lanolips Kirsten Carriol sits down with Elle Ferguson to share how she grew up surrounded by the smell and feel of lanolin on her family sheep farm in South Australia and why she refused to take shortcuts to create an iconic skincare product adored by Gigi Hadid, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Kim Kardashian. *Spoiler alert* This episode contains stories of how the idea for the brand came to Kirsten in a taxi in Paris, how Lanolips was initially launched with quirky and kitsch branding and the importance of just diving in and taking a risk without over-thinking!
