More about Jen
Jen Baden Howard is a UK-based writer and freelance journalist. A former beauty editor of The Daily Telegraph, her work has also appeared in The Telegraph Magazine, The Times, Elle, Vogue and Marie Claire, among many more.
As a features writer, she has interviewed Hollywood actresses, models, Royal Ballet principal dancers and more about their health and beauty regimes. But the sparkle in her Italian grandmother’s eyes whenever she laughed, and the stories of life and love told in the lines on her beautiful, olive skin, are more inspiring to her than any celebrity beauty secret.

Jen has also been a contributing editor to Boots Magazine, Harvey Nichols Magazine and British Airways First Class magazines, edited one of the UK’s first motherhood and lifestyle blogs and hosted the first ever British parenting podcast (whilst writing for parenting glossies such as Baby London, and contributing to websites like Boden).
As a copywriter and brand consultant, Jen has worked with companies ranging from Oral B and Olay, to Omorovizvca and Dr Hauschka, and has written for spas and wellbeing destinations such as Chewton Glen and Cowshed.
As well as writing That’s beautiful!, she currently writes a daily beauty news column for Cosmetic Executive Women (CEW) in the USA — something which calls for early morning starts and lots of strong British tea.
