Danessa Myricks, founder of Danessa Myricks Beauty, started out her career in nursing before parlaying a chance meeting with a media executive into a job at a hair-and-beauty magazine publisher. When the magazine she worked for abruptly closed, she pivoted again, teaching herself to be a makeup artist. She built up her experience and expertise and, within a few years, was an in-demand artist teaching at trade shows and selling DVDs of her master classes. She then went on to work at Kiss and Benefit, where she led product development and innovation on projects such as Benefit's brow collection. In 2015, she launched her eponymous brand, which made a splash in the beauty world with its imaginative, multiuse products. The brand launched in Sephora in 2021 and has seen huge year-on-year growth, all while creating entirely new formulas and offering programs like the Danessa Myricks Angels, which provides mentorship opportunities to up-and-coming artists.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What happens when two powerhouse women sit down to talk about leadership, resilience, and the courage to embrace the unknown? You get an episode you can't afford to miss.In the latest episode of Where Brains Meet Beauty, host Jodi Katz brings together Danessa Myricks, Founder and CEO of Danessa Myricks Beauty, and Anncy Rowe, Chief Commercial Officer of Rodan + Fields, in front of a live studio audience for a conversation that's equal parts inspiring and thought-provoking.As the conversation unfolds, we uncover a shared thread in both women's lives: the innate desire to teach and lead. Danessa takes us back to her childhood, where she organized mock classrooms and dreamt of guiding people up mountains—a metaphor that perfectly captures her lifelong mission to inspire. Anncy reflects on her upbringing as the eldest sibling, where leadership wasn't just a role; it was part of her identity.Anchored by the quarter's theme, "Power Moves: Excellence in Leadership," the discussion dives deep. Anncy shares insights from Sarah Jakes Roberts' book Power Moves: Ignite Your Confidence and Become a Force, discussing how personal power can shift depending on our environment and how crucial it is to activate that power with intention. Danessa opens up about her journey—from feeling powerless to recognizing her strength. Her mantra? Do the things that scare you. It's a challenge she embraced over the past year and one she's carrying forward.Leadership styles and the impact of feedback also take center stage. Danessa reflects on her evolution from leading solely with empathy to understanding the necessity of clear expectations and constructive feedback. Anncy candidly shares her shift from leading through fear to fostering joy and meeting individual needs. Both emphasize the importance of creating safe spaces for honest communication—a key to authentic growth.What makes this episode stand out isn't just the remarkable achievements of these women—it's their vulnerability. They talk about self-doubt, the power of no, and resilience's importance. It's a raw, authentic look at what it means to grow, lead, and own your power.If you're looking for a dose of inspiration, strategies for personal growth, or simply a reminder that even the most successful leaders have moments of uncertainty, this episode is for you.For more updates and exclusive content, connect with us on LinkedIn @BaseBeautyCreativeAgency or @JodiKatz.

On this week's episode of the Friends in Beauty podcast I welcome Jeffrey Wright to the Friends in Beauty guest chair. Jeff has been working as a professional Makeup Artist for the last 17 years in the Washington, DC (and surrounding) area.  A graduate from Duke Ellington School of the Arts and Corcoran School of Art and Design in Washington, DC, he lends an artistic eye to his approach to makeup and treats his subjects face as a three dimensional canvas.  His resume includes working and consulting for such prestigious cosmetic brands; including Bobbi Brown, Dior, Benefit, Smashbox, Laura Mercier and M.A.C. Cosmetics. Jeff's philosophy is to help women (and men) of all ages define their best features and build their self-esteem and confidence through the power of makeup.  “By refining someone's exterior, it allows them to be more confident and gives them the ability to open up and let their true personality radiate”. “Makeup is powerful! It can change one's demeanor, boost confidence and stop an admirer dead in his or her tracks”.  Jeff is a self taught Makeup Artist who has had the pleasure to be coached by a few well  respected industry legends such as: Sam Fine, Valente Frazier, Renny Vasquez and Danessa Myricks.  During our chat we talked about how we met, setting boundaries, client retention, learning from the greats, sustaining longevity and so much more.

In Ep. 89 of Earned, Conor sits down with the legendary Danessa Myricks, founder of the inclusive, “boundary-breaking” beauty brand Danessa Myricks Beauty. We jump in by discussing how Danessa became an “accidental makeup artist,” and broke into the beauty industry by creating educational makeup DVDs. We learn how the success of those DVDs led Danessa to consult for other beauty brands, and even become Director of Product Innovation at Benefit Cosmetics. We then hear why she became more passionate about teaching makeup artists around the world at a time when education around beauty was not easily accessible. Danessa shares how her observations around the lack of representation for marginalized communities in the then-homogenous beauty landscape inspired her to “be the change she wanted to see,” and led her to create her inclusive, eponymous beauty brand. We then discuss how Danessa built her community of over one million fans, and she explains how she cultivates connection through adding value wherever possible. Danessa shares why there is “so much power in our conversations about beauty” in bringing people together around the world. Finally, we discuss Danessa's ambitions for the future of the brand, and close the show by learning how “showing up consistently” and recognizing organic brand fans has skyrocketed the brand's success on social.In this episode, you will learn:Why Danessa started her brand to help serve marginalized communitiesHow Danessa cultivated her large, yet close-knit community by adding value without costWhy Danessa believes beauty can bring the world togetherResources:Danessa Myricks BeautyConnect with the Guest(s):Danessa Myricks LinkedInConnect with Conor Begley & CreatorIQ:Conor's LinkedIn - @conormbegleyCreatorIQ LinkedIn - @creatoriqFollow us on social:CreatorIQ YouTube - @TribeDynamicsCreatorIQ Instagram - @creatoriqCreatorIQ TikTok - @creator.iqCreatorIQ Twitter - @CreatorIQ

Today on the Friends in Beauty Podcast I welcome my fave Makeup Artist, Photographer, Entrepreneur & Founder of Danessa's Myricks Beauty, Danessa Myricks to the Friends in Beauty guest chair.   In a world focused on labels, Danessa Myricks has continuously broken boundaries and built a world of beauty for people from all races, ages and genders.   Starting out as a self-taught makeup artist, Danessa learned how to use products in unconventional ways to create stunning looks. Ignoring industry norms, she began to teach other artists about her techniques and product selections, and created a name for herself in the beauty world.    After turning heads at some of the largest brands, Danessa led product development for some of the most successful launches in history at brands like KISS and Benefit Cosmetics. But she knew the world of makeup still felt exclusive to many, so she decided to launch her own brand, Danessa Myricks Beauty.    Creatively combining artistry with product manipulation, she designs and launches some of the most high-performance products on the market.   Danessa has created looks for celebrities, worked with entertainers in music and film and collaborates with other brands and artists to push the beauty industry forward. She trains makeup artists and enthusiasts worldwide and continues to create some of the most innovative and inclusive beauty products on the market.    But the most rewarding part of her work is hearing from people who felt underrepresented, unseen or ignored by beauty brands who finally land at a brand made for all, Danessa Myricks Beauty.   If you know me then you know that Danessa is hands down my favorite makeup artist on the planet. Not only is she talented but she's such an amazing + uplifting woman with an infectious spirit.    In this interview Danessa shares: -The evolution of Danessa Myricks Beauty -The importance of using your name when building a brand -How she manages being an introvert in an extroverted profession -What she sees holding artists back from reaching their full potential -How she takes care of herself -Her keys to success in the industry  -What's next for DMB and sooo much more.   I'm so proud to be able to present this conversation to you & so grateful to Danessa for sharing her time with us and dropping countless gems. This interview was exactly what I needed to light a fire under me & I know you'll feel the same. I don't want to hold you back any longer.

As startup beauty brands and newly minted founders emerge almost daily, it's easy to forget that some companies are not made overnight. Take, for instance, makeup artist-turned-founder Danessa Myricks, who has been building her authority in beauty for more than two decades. After a layoff from a publishing company, Myricks decided to change her future by teaching herself how to do makeup. "I started at [age] 30. I've been doing makeup now for over 20 years, so you get a sense of how old I am," said Myricks on a recent episode of the Glossy Beauty Podcast. "So back then, there was no Instagram, there was no social media. There weren't all these beauty schools. They weren't masterclasses. There was nothing. You can go to the library, you can buy a book. And so there really weren't resources that way, and [the same for] even in cosmetology school -- not that I had the time to do it because I needed to earn money." That lack of public access and education led to one of Myricks' first business endeavors. She began to sell makeup DVDs to beauty enthusiasts. "I don't even know anyone who owns a DVD player player right now, but that really was the thing. Early on in my career, I always had a business mindset; I wanted to turn this into a business, [because] it was going to be the thing that I used to feed my family... When one hairstylist asked me if I can come to their salon and teach them and their staff how to do makeup, a bell went off. I was like, 'I can hold little classes.' These sessions started off with, like, five people, and then 20, and it started to grow. I started getting invitations from different hair shows to teach the audience how to do makeup. And I was like, 'Wow, how can I amplify this?' Because I can't be everywhere. I can't go to every show." In many ways those, original DVDs set the stage for Myricks' cult following on Instagram (she's largely responsibly for the neon trend on social) and her namesake online university, which she launched during the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic. But product development has always been Myricks' true calling, especially with the lack of diverse and inclusive shade ranges she experienced as both a customer and a makeup artist. Today, her self-funded Danessa Myricks Beauty line that launched five years ago experienced 100% sales growth in 2020. It is sold in 50 stores in 13 countries worldwide; this month, it made its foray into Sephora.

Today on the Friends in Beauty Podcast we welcome Makeup Artist Sunni. Sunni was first introduced to makeup by his grandmother when he was very young. He would travel with her to various facial and makeup appointments and it opened him up to the world of beauty.  Being a young male growing up in Roxboro, NC it didn’t seem possible for him to follow his beauty industry dreams. So in 2014 he decided to move to New York. After working with prestigious brands such as Inglot, MAC and Kevyn Aucoin and also working under amazing artists such as AJ Crimson, Danessa Myricks and The Reggie Wells he decided to venture out on his own as a full time freelance artist in January 2018.  He created A Sunni Concept which is a lifestyle brand and not only about applying makeup but can include a numerous amount of different services and apparel.  He is not only a makeup artist but a beauty enhancer and conceptualizer who applies makeup on clients but teaches them as well. Sunni is a born educator as he comes from a long line of educators within his family. He is very enthused about educating his clients so they leave his presence not only beautified but knowledgeable about replicating at least one feature Sunni created.  Sunni’s favorite quote is “Life is but a Dream”. He believes whatever your dream is you must follow it to obtain ultimate happiness. In this episode, Sunni shares his journey to becoming a Makeup Artist, how he was able to work with so many amazing brands, his experience with being a black male Makeup Artist, as well as his inspiration behind creating his skincare line and what’s next for his brand. Sunni dropped so many relatable and relevant gems in this episode. This episode is for you if you need a dose of what stepping out on faith looks like.
