In this episode, Chelsea Director, founder of URGO Beauty, talks about her cruelty-free makeup brand and how she came up with the idea for her Equestrian focused products. We talk about how our professions perfectly intertwine; professional equine photographer and an equestrian based makeup company! We chat about the similar struggles we've experienced in their own small business environment and within the Equestrian community. Chelsea opens up about what brands are looking for when hiring a photographer & how she decides who to work with. I personally use & recommend URGO Beauty products to anyone looking for a makeup that can stand up to the wild equestrian lifestyle!
