Iris Calloway, Editor

Iris Calloway edits The Silky Edit. She spent a decade reading beauty copy — first on the brand side, writing the claims, then on the editing side, taking them apart — before starting this desk to do the second full time. Her beat is the space between what a label promises and what the ingredient list can deliver, read always by texture first.

The desk's rules are short and enforced: label first, named sources, counted feedback, no invented testing, and no coverage for sale. The full mechanics live in How we edit.

Letters from readers shape the run list. Write to iris@silkyedit.com.
