Nicole Saunders
Beauty Editor
Nicole Saunders is the beauty editor at Women's Health with eight years of experience researching, writing, and editing lifestyle content. She specializes in breaking down complicated topics, like high-frequency wands and microcurrent devices, into easy-to-understand guides. She takes great pride in heavily researching and testing featured beauty products, — such as hairdryers and foundations — on our site, and spotlights her all-time seasonal favorites in her quarterly column Best New Beauty. And she tests quite literally thousands of launches for our Best New Beauty Awards package.
Before this, she was the first-ever Associate Commerce Editor at NBC News, where she helmed the skincare and wellness coverage. In this role, I regularly interviewed high-profile experts to help readers make savvy shopping decisions on everything from hairdryers and vitamin C serums to fitness equipment and air quality monitors. Outside of her wellness beat, she regularly wrote gift guides and sales articles pegged to major shopping events like Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Amazon Prime Day.
