"I think one of the biggest things to convey to anybody who wants to start a business is know what you're good at, know what you like, and know what you're not good at, and then outsource that. Because that's going to help get the business to where you wanna go." —Arielle Moody Ever wonder if you're settling for “good enough” when you could be living—and choosing—so much better? If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the choices you make for your body, your business, or your family, this episode is your permission slip to trust your gut, question the status quo, and demand more from what you put on your skin and into your life. Arielle Moody, a seasoned beauty industry expert and co-founder of Mama Sol, turned her personal quest for safe, effective products into a thriving business that puts wellness and integrity first. Her journey from industry insider to innovative entrepreneur brings a fresh, no-nonsense perspective on why what's inside—both products and people—matters most. Hit play for a candid look at how intentional living, ingredient transparency, self-belief, and values-driven choices shape everything from entrepreneurship and family business to work-life balance, clinical testing, and creating wellness products that truly multitask. Meet Arielle: While pregnant with her first child, shocked by how many toxic ingredients were lurking in everyday products, and after trying dozens of natural mineral sunscreens, Arielle was determined to create one that 1) didn't make her immediately want to wash her face, and 2) didn't leave a white cast on her skin. Oh, and it needed to be something she looked forward to using daily. No biggie. As Mama Sol's product development whisperer, Arielle has been immersed in the beauty industry her entire adult life. Starting as a beauty sales trainer for Smashbox, Dr. Perricone, and Bite Beauty, then rising to become the head of product development for Skinn Cosmetics and, most recently, the head of sales for a leading cosmetics packaging and formulation company, she's always known one thing—that she would one day create her own product, something truly different that had never been seen before.

C'est le moment de dire au revoir à la saison 6 du podcast et quelle saison ! Le passage à un épisode par semaine en janvier a été un sacré challenge personnel et cette saison a aussi été celle d'un choix professionnel, de lancer mon entreprise et d'accroître la résonnance du podcast. Je vous prépare une série d'été pour le mois d'août avec quatre entrepreneures qui ont un lien fort avec la nature et le vivant pour vous faire voyager pendant l'été. La saison 7 se construit aussi avec 6 conversations déjà enregistrées et des envies d'emmener le podcast encore plus loin et pour le faire, je cherche activement des sponsors, si vous connaissez des entreprises qui ont le souhait de faire rayonner leur marque et leurs projets à travers le podcast, n'hésitez pas à me mettre en contact ! Mais pour le moment, je reviens sur ce dernier épisode, enregistré à Bruxelles avec Océane Taquoi, fondatrice de Labelchic qui est une agence de prospective et de tendance dans l'univers de la beauté. Cette conversation est particulière, peut-être l'une des plus intimes du podcast, nous avons abordé tant le parcours d'Océane, la création de son agence et de sa boutique à Bruxelles, le moment où elle a fait le choix d'arrêter sa boutique pour se concentrer uniquement sur son agence, que sa vie de femme, de maman, comment elle trouve son équilibre et la façon dont elle suit son intuition et ce qui fait vibrer son cœur. Nous avons parlé de l'intime, des voix des femmes qui résonnent, de nos capacités à prendre la parole ou la plume pour partager des sujets personnel. A mes yeux, l'intime est politique, parler de l'intimité, c'est aussi affirmer qu'elle n'a pas à être cantonné à l'intérieur de soi et que partager nos histoires et nos vécus, peut réchauffer le cœur de celles et ceux qui nous entourent et parfois bien au delà. Si vous avez aimé cette conversation et que vous avez envie de soutenir ce travail qu'est la création d'un podcast indépendant, n'hésitez pas à vous abonner sur votre plateforme d'écoute, à le noter, à laisser un commentaire et à le partager autour de vous, c'est par ces actions que le podcast sera visible alors merci à vous !

Nos últimos anos, o movimento clean beauty dominou o mercado com promessas de segurança, pureza e sustentabilidade. Influenciadores levantaram bandeiras contra ingredientes tradicionais, criando uma histeria em torno de parabenos, sulfatos e silicones. No entanto, muitos desses mesmos nomes migraram silenciosamente para o K-beauty, promovendo produtos com os mesmos "vilões" químicos que antes demonizavam. Essa guinada revela não apenas hipocrisia, mas também a fragilidade das narrativas digitais e o poder da performance sobre a coerência.#belezainteligente #cosméticossemmitos #cleanbeauty #kbeauty #cosmetologia #influenciadores #desinformação #verdadenacientífica #cabelosaudável #rotinadequilibrada

Alina Roytberg and Lev Glazman, co-founders of Fresh, built one of the first modern skincare brands rooted in natural ingredients, sensorial experience, and emotional connection—long before “clean beauty” became a trend. In this episode, they share how they turned a personal frustration with conventional products into a business that caught the attention of Barneys, Sephora, and eventually LVMH. We talk about the $10,000 gamble that launched their first store, the soap that flew off shelves without any marketing, and the costly mistake of chasing too many opportunities at once. They also open up about what it was really like being acquired by a luxury giant, maintaining creative control, and why clarity, discipline, and customer trust are still their guiding principles. This is a conversation about growth with intention, learning through missteps, and staying connected to the original spark that started it all. While our last episode officially wrapped Season 5, we couldn't resist sharing this bonus conversation before we take a short break. We'll be back next season—one more story of risk, resilience, and the long game of building something meaningful. Key Takeaways and Topics: The emotional and sensory philosophy behind Fresh's product development Why their soaps sold out at Barneys within days—and what they did next The failed attempt to launch a subbrand (Index) at Bergdorf and the costly lesson in diluted focus Building a brand through education and storytelling—before the internet The early days of clean beauty and why they focused on what's in the product How LVMH acquired Fresh while allowing the founders to retain autonomy and creative control Navigating acquisition and learning how to lead within a global conglomerate The Failure Factor Podcast was brought to you by Off The Field Coaching.

Tisha shares her inspiring path from staff accountant and part-time makeup artist to leading her own beauty brand that launched during the pandemic and quickly sold out in 10 days. In this episode, Tisha breaks down how she strategically pivoted from finance to beauty marketing, cold-pitched Sephora with a bold email (before she even launched!), and developed products that center clean ingredients and inclusivity. Her brand LYS, short for Love Yourself, is not only disrupting the beauty space with triangle packaging and affirmational product names—but it's also remained profitable every year since launch.In this episode she shares:How she got her foot in the beauty industry using her finance backgroundWhy she took a demotion to pivot industriesHow personal loss and purpose led her to finally launch LYS BeautyWhat made Sephora say "yes" to a brand that hadn't even launched yetHow she developed 35 inclusive foundation shades with a clean formulationWhy representation and self-love are at the heart of her business modelHighlights Include: 00:00 Intro02:10 How a staff accountant became a makeup artist04:50 Taking a demotion to move into marketing10:54 Losing her dad and finding the courage to launch15:45 Cold-pitching Sephora and landing a deal pre-launch20:00 What clean beauty means to her (and her skin)27:00 Packaging, affirmations, and triangle symbolism30:00 Navigating DEI backlash and economic shifts45:00 Building a team and staying profitableCheck out episode 467 of Side Hustle Pro podcast out now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube.Links mentioned in this episodeLYS Beauty Website: https://lysbeauty.comLYS Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lysbeautyofficial/Tisha's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glamourgirl5/Cosmoprof: https://cosmoprofnorthamerica.comMakeUp In Trade Shows: https://www.makeup-in.comLuxepack: https://www.luxepack.comClick here to subscribe via RSS feed (non-iTunes feed): http://sidehustlepro.libsyn.com/rssAnnouncementsJoin our Facebook CommunityIf you're looking for a community of supportive side hustlers who are all working to take our businesses to the next level, join us here: http://sidehustlepro.co/facebookGuest Social Media InfoInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/glamourgirl5/LYS Beauty Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lysbeautyofficial Hosted on Acast.

Sasha Plavsic, Founder of ILIA Beauty, the clean cosmetics brand known for redefining performance makeup, opens up about what it took to build a $100M business from a garage and a $25,000 line of credit. In this raw and vulnerable conversation, Sasha shares how a deeply personal quest to heal her skin led to the creation of ILIA, a brand that went on to help define the "clean beauty" category alongside industry giants like Sephora. But behind the brand's success story lies an untold reality of burnout, identity loss, and a literal health collapse that forced her to reckon with the cost of carrying it all. From almost closing ILIA's doors to hiring a CEO and eventually selling a majority stake to the Courtin-Clarins family, Sasha walks us through the most defining and difficult moments of her journey. Whether you're bootstrapping your first venture or navigating scale, Sasha's story is a powerful reminder that success should never come at the cost of your health or your joy.

I always love speaking with founders who are guided by purpose, and Reham Essa's story is a perfect example. After years as a pharmacist, Founder and CEO Reham set out to create a skincare brand that prioritizes health, simplicity, and integrity over hype. EssenZen is about more than beauty; it's about reclaiming what skincare should be: minimal, functional, and rooted in science. In this episode, Reham shares how her background in pharmacy led to a deeper understanding of skin and a passion for product formulation. We dive into what it means to create a brand from scratch, challenge industry norms, and speak directly to the conscious consumer. If you're building something purpose-driven or just tired of 12-step skincare routines, you'll want to hear this. Here are a few key moments from our conversation: * Why Reham left pharmacy to pursue her purpose through skincare * How EssenZen redefines beauty with minimalist, science-backed products * The challenges and wins of building a bootstrapped brand from the ground up * Why fewer ingredients and clear messaging resonate in a noisy market * The importance of staying true to your values—even when growth is slow Join me, Ramon Vela, as we listen to the episode and discover how Reham is rewriting the skincare story—one intentional product at a time.

“You follow your passion, and when you have a purpose behind it, everything becomes a little bit clearer.” —Nancy Rimbergas Clean beauty isn't just another Instagram hashtag—it's a real movement that starts with actually caring about what we're putting on our skin.

We're not just buying products anymore; we're voting with our dollars, pushing brands to be real about their ingredients, and showing the beauty industry that we want something better. Nancy Rimbergas is the co-founder of Earth Based Body, a purpose-driven skincare line that harnesses the potent, scientifically backed ingredients native to the Sonoran Desert. By prioritizing local, non-toxic ingredients and maintaining a commitment to transparency, she aims to bridge the gap between natural wellness and high-performance beauty. Tune in as Justine interviews Nancy about her inspiration and challenges behind creating a clean, non-toxic skincare line, the unique healing properties of Sonoran Desert ingredients, the importance of local sourcing and ingredient transparency, how to balance creativity and business strategy in product development, entrepreneurial lessons learned in starting and scaling a business, and the power of relationships and community in business growth.

In this episode, Jenn Harper, founder and CEO of Cheekbone Beauty Cosmetics and 2025 recipient of Retail Council Canada's Independent Retail Ambassador of the Year award, joins me on the mic. Our inspiring conversation explores Jenn's remarkable journey from food industry sales to building a nationally recognized Indigenous beauty brand now available in Sephora, Canada, and JCPenney.Jenn's entrepreneurial story begins with a vivid dream in January 2015 featuring Indigenous girls covered in lip gloss, just months after she got sober from battling alcoholism. Her discovery of generational trauma stemming from her grandparents' residential school experience became the driving force behind creating a brand that could break cycles and build something meaningful for Indigenous communities.The conversation reveals how personal tragedy - losing her brother BJ to suicide just before launching - nearly ended the venture but ultimately became the motivation to persevere through countless challenges. Jenn candidly discusses the mental resilience required for entrepreneurship, comparing the journey to Nike founder Phil Knight's struggles detailed in "Shoe Dog."Cheekbone Beauty has carved out a unique position in the competitive cosmetics market by pioneering what Jenn calls "indigenous beauty" - products that are clean and safe for humans and genuinely sustainable for the planet. The brand eliminates harmful ingredients like dimethicone and isodiacaine that negatively impact aquatic ecosystems, directly connecting to Indigenous land stewardship values.Jenn shares crucial insights about customer loyalty and product-market fit, revealing their impressive 55-65% customer return rate compared to the industry average of 30%. Their hero product, the UniFi complexion pencils, has revolutionized how customers think about the foundation by promoting natural skin visibility while providing beneficial skincare properties.The discussion covers modern marketing realities for independent brands, with Jenn emphasizing that authentic user-generated content from real customers far outperforms expensive influencer campaigns. She details costly lessons learned from failed marketing initiatives in 2024, confirming that scrappy, organic marketing remains most effective for small brands.Jenn positions artificial intelligence as essential for competitive survival while acknowledging environmental concerns that sustainable businesses must consider in their impact reporting. She views AI as potentially levelling the playing field initially, though she expects larger corporations to capitalize on these tools quickly.The episode provides valuable advice for fellow entrepreneurs, with Jenn emphasizing speed and leveraging available tools while learning from mistakes quickly. Jenn's target demographic of 35-55-year-old women challenges assumptions about indigenous beauty brands, with Fair Shades being their top sellers.This conversation offers inspiration and practical insights for independent retailers, beauty entrepreneurs, and anyone interested in building purpose-driven businesses that create positive community impact while achieving commercial success.

Susan Yara's journey to redefining skincare didn't start in a lab—it started in front of a camera. From reporting news in the Bronx to becoming a trusted beauty voice on YouTube, Susan built a community before she ever built a brand. With her platform Mixed Makeup, she offered something rare: expert-backed, educational content for women who were underserved by the beauty industry's hype-driven approach.But Susan wasn't just creating content. In 2019, she co-founded Naturium Skincare. Just four years later, she made headlines when she sold her company to e.l.f. Beauty for $355 million—and became one of the first content creators to successfully scale and exit a skincare brand.In this episode, Nancy and Susan go deep on the realities of building a digital-first beauty brand: funding operations before revenue, pivoting from an influencer to a founder mindset, and how it's so important to build authentic relationships with your community and retail partners. Susan shares the failures that shaped her, the influencer marketing tactics that actually work, and how she's balancing life as a founder, mom, and now solo parent.This is a story of vision, resilience, and reinvention.

Rosie Johnston is the founder of the clean fragrance line By Rosie Jane. Johnston originally trained as a makeup artist and began working in London, then moved to Los Angeles, where she continued to build her skills and clientele. In 2003, she founded Rosie Jane Cosmetics, which offered an ahead-of-its-time multipurpose lip and cheek pot. While the venture didn't last, she realized she had a love and knack for making her own products. She then created her signature scent, wearing it to shoots, hoping that it would make her memorable to clients and help her to book more jobs. But when clients and friends began asking to purchase the scent, something clicked. She began producing larger quantities, and soon after, By Rosie Jane was born. Since launching in 2010, By Rosie Jane has expanded from one scent to seven. It's also formulated perfumes, perfume oils, and a suite of bodycare products. The brand is consistently one of Sephora's top-selling fragrance brands, and last year reached $10 million in revenue, making it one of the most recognizable clean fragrance brands on the market today.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Amy Liu's journey to redefining clean beauty started in her own skin. As someone with eczema, she knew firsthand the struggle of finding beauty products that were both safe and effective. The industry was full of promises, but few products delivered results without irritation. After years of working behind the scenes at Smashbox, Kate Somerville, and Josie Maran Cosmetics, Amy found herself at a crossroads. She had built brands for others, but what about a brand built for people like her? People who wanted beauty without compromise?
