The C&C 100 Beauty Honorees on Inclusion, Building From Scratch & What Beauty Brands Won't Admit
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We sat down with our C&C 100 Beauty Honorees —Claudia Sulewski, Danessa Myricks, Golloria George, Mei Kwok, Monique Rodriguez, and Toni Bravo — to talk about what it really takes to build, lead, and win in the beauty industry right now. From viral moments to million dollar exits, these women are shifting the beauty standard from outward perfection to authenticity and they are not holding back.
In this episode, we cover:
• Why the beauty industry still isn't as inclusive as it claims to be — and what these women are doing about it
• How to turn a viral moment into a legitimate business
• What nobody tells you about getting a product from concept to shelf
• The real story behind landing major retail partnerships
• How to build a beauty brand that breaks the rules and still wins
• Why showing up unapologetically is both a personal and business strategy
Tune in to hear from some of the most exciting voices in beauty right now — on their terms, on their timeline, and without ever compromising on what they believe in.
