TDI Review
Golloria George has quickly become one of beauty’s most prominent advocates for inclusivity, using her influence to push brands to rethink how their products perform on darker skin tones.
Nowhere is that influence clearer than her relationship with Rhode. After publicly criticising its Pocket Blush for appearing ashy on her skin, George went on to help launch the brand’s highly anticipated Pocket Bronzer collection in June.
George built her social presence through her “Darkest Shade” series, testing complexion products on her deep skin tone and calling out brands when their offerings fell short.
More broadly, she has partnered with beauty brands including Summer Fridays and Patrick Ta, and was named a 2026 beauty honouree in Create & Cultivate’s C&C 100.
George’s growing ability to turn product criticism into a seat at the table with major beauty brands earns her a place in the Rated tier.

The partnership follows previous public criticism from George around how Rhode blush products performed on deeper skin tones, with the creator later working alongside the brand as it expanded its shade offering.
