AN AMBITIOUS Dalton business owner said it has been 'nuts' after featuring in an iconic fashion and beauty magazine.

Appearing in Vogue, Chloe Walsh's make-up products have featured twice in the magazine, with a third appearance to follow.

Coco Cosmetics by Chloe was started up from her bedroom in December 2018.

The business has no signs of slowing down, with orders coming in globally and an impressive following on social media.

Chloe Walsh said: "They (Vogue) got in contact with me to say that they really liked my brand and said would you be interested in being featured, and obviously I said yes.

"I've been in two consecutive issues, and we are due to be in the next one as well.

"This was for our marshmallow sponges, lip glosses and the highlights will be the last issue.

"It was a bit crazy at first when I got the email because I had heard they are very selective about who they put in, because they are the premium recommendations.

"It was nice that they actually reached out to me with being a small business.

"It does vary, there's a lot of big brands in there as well as upcoming brands who are doing really well at the moment.

"They like to support smaller brands that they see potential in and it's a great way for us to advertise as well in such a big and popular magazine.

"We are very busy, and we get hundreds of orders daily that we have to keep up with so we keep it to the level we can maintain.

"But we've definitely been recognised, people have sent me it and tagged me in it on Instagram when they have seen it.

"There's a lot of support even globally - it's all a bit nuts."

The business is hugely popular on video sharing platform TikTok, and in recent months has grown from 100,000 followers to almost 120,000.

Chloe has also welcomed Ellie Bayliff to the team as her business continues to grow. She said: "Ellie got a lot of followers on TikTok as soon as we announced that she started and they all said welcome and wished her luck!"
