Shape Magazine appoints Elsa Krüger as their new beauty editor

The Shape team is thrilled to announce the appointment of a new full-time beauty editor, with effect from 1 September. Elsa Krüger has many years experience as an exceptionally talented and highly professional beauty editor, having written for several women's magazines.

Her knowledge of beauty, the science behind what makes a good product, and her passion for all things gorgeous make her the ideal choice for a magazine as committed to beauty as Shape is.

Elsa also styles her own shoots and will be intimately involved with all beauty projects going forward — from conceptualisation to final fact-checking.

She will be working out of Touchline Media's Johannesburg offices, which puts her in a better position to interact more regularly with you; and will spend a week a month in Cape Town to sign off her pages, and attend planning meetings.
