Intercultural we\u2019ll be hearing about make-up and how that differs across cultures.<\/p>\n<p>And we\u2019ll also be going to China to find out more about the universal social monitoring that you

trends in cosmetics vary across cultures. Katie Stewart heard about Mara D\u2019Louca, an Israeli, studying in Germany, who made a 10-stop make-up tour of the UK in January because she\u2019s just wild about make-up. You can see some of the looks on the blog posts for this show but for the whole range you will have to go to Mara\u2019s Instagram account which we also link to in the post. It turns out that the world of cosmetics covers gender, the racial divide and issues of animal cruelty.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.absolutely-intercultural.com\/?attachment_id=4148\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4148\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-4148\" src=\"http:\/\/www.absolutely-intercultural.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cruelty_Free-1.png\" alt=\"cruelty free logo\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Waqararif [<a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/4.0\">CC BY-SA 4.0<\/a>], <a href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Cruelty_Free.png\">via Wikimedia Commons<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can see more at Mara\u2019s Instagram account at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/maradloucacosmetics\/?hl=en\">MaraDLoucacosmetics<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely monitored<br \/>\n<\/strong>So China got a bad mention there and recently I\u2019ve also been seeing lots of articles about the social monitoring of the Chinese which could affect your credit rating for a house loan or whether you get a new job. Since my husband, Tony Fox, goes to China quite often, I thought I&nbsp; would ask him to find out more about these ominous developments when he went on his last trip at the end of 2018, so let\u2019s go absolutely monitored.<\/p>\n<p>Find out more on our blog here where you can also access our archives.
