My 10 Favorite Beauty Accounts to Follow on Instagram
Before I joined the Cupcakes and Cashmere team, I was an editor at the beauty website Byrdie. My job was literally to stay on top of (or, really, ahead of) each and every beauty trend. To do that, I stalked brands', bloggers', and artists's every online move, most of which took place on Instagram. It is, after all, the best social media outlet for showcasing images. To this day, I follow about 700 people on Instagram, a good 600 of which are people in the beauty industry. Here are 10 of my favorite beauty accounts on Instagram:
