Emma Stout is a Staff Writer at Bustle, where she covers beauty news, product launches, viral trends, and the many ways pop culture shapes what we’re putting on (and in) our faces.
Before joining Bustle, she wrote for Interview Magazine. She holds a master’s degree in Magazine Writing from NYU’s Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute.
She identifies as a Carrie from SATC, a Hannah from Girls, a Southern girl with a Valley girl accent, and a proud member of the Lumbee tribe of North Carolina. When she’s not busy blogging, she likes to flip through Kim Kardashian’s selfie book and mourn her graveyard of likes on TheRealReal.
