Nadjezda Heymans | Dutch Content QA for Beauty Brands

Some sentences fail loudly.

Most don’t.

A translated claim can be grammatically perfect and still be wrong: a percentage that shifts, a nuance that disappears, wording that’s technically correct but not quite true to what the brand meant. It reads fine. That’s exactly why it gets published. 25 years of translating for beauty brands have taught me to spot that quieter kind of wrong. Growing up with Dutch, French and English taught me to hear it in the first place.

A BRAND’S CLAIM IS A PROMISE. I MAKE SURE THE DUTCH VERSION KEEPS IT.
