From working with top celebrities to pioneering live selling on QVC, she didn’t just build products—she changed how beauty is communicated, taught, and sold. In this episode, Laura breaks down the real reason people buy—and why most founders get it wrong. Her approach was never about selling products.

Episode 305 of Where Brains Meet Beauty continues our Power Duos theme with an iconic beauty brand and the duo helping it thrive in a new era: Laura Geller, Founder of Laura Geller Beauty, and Sara Mitzner, VP of Brand Marketing. Together they share how founder authenticity, sharp brand focus, and a deep understanding of the customer have powered massive relevance, especially as pro-aging and mature-skin makeup becomes a cultural movement.Their power duo dynamic is built on mutual trust and amplification. Sara calls it plainly: Laura is the story. A founder who shows up, teaches, jokes, and connects makes marketing feel effortless. Laura credits Sara with making her relevant by tapping into her authenticity, letting her be funny, and building a content engine that actually sounds like her. A turning point came when Laura voiced concern that the brand was drifting away from its core QVC customer. Sara listened, ran a full brand analysis, confirmed the real demographic, and leaned in. That focus unlocked growth and helped the brand lead the pro-aging conversation at exactly the right moment in culture.They also reveal what keeps the brand grounded in the customer. Laura is hands-on to the point of answering customer service questions late at night, not for optics, but to solve problems, teach better application, and learn what women actually need. It is the same customer obsession that shows up in hero products like the Best of the Best palette and the brand's signature baked makeup process, made in Italy on terracotta tiles for a hydrating, never-chalky finish that works especially well on mature skin.The episode closes with a fun Broadway-meets-beauty game (shade name or show tune) plus a reminder that the best brands do not chase every audience. They commit to one woman, understand her deeply, and let everything else follow.

Walk into any beauty aisle—or scroll through your feed for five minutes—and it's clear the industry is obsessed with what's new. New formulas, new trends, new “rules.” But for many women, especially those who've been using makeup for decades, the question isn't what's new—it's what actually works. And increasingly, the answer isn't coming from the brands shouting the loudest. It's coming from those that are listening more closely—and building with real life, not aspiration, in mind. That shift is backed by data: according to consumer research by MG2, more than half of beauty consumers say they want to be both educated and inspired when they shop, not just sold to.So what does it take to build a beauty brand that doesn't just chase trends, but earns a place in women's everyday routines?That's the question at the heart of the latest episode of Retail Refined. In this episode, host Melissa Gonzalez sits down with Laura Geller, Founder of Laura Geller Beauty, to unpack how decades of hands-on experience with everyday consumers shaped a brand rooted in education, problem-solving, and purpose. From her early days backstage on Broadway to becoming a pioneer on QVC, Geller shares how staying close to the customer—not chasing trends—has driven lasting success.What you'll learn…How to better identify and serve your true customer—and why trying to appeal to everyone can hold brands back.How consistent, education-led storytelling builds trust across channels.How to develop products that solve real consumer needs, not just follow trends.Laura Geller is a veteran makeup artist and founder of Laura Geller Beauty, known for building a brand centered on making beauty accessible, uncomplicated, and designed for real women. She began her career working in Broadway, film, and television before launching her Upper East Side studio and becoming a pioneering force on QVC, where her line remains one of the longest-standing beauty brands. Recognized for innovation and industry leadership—including her iconic primer category and Forbes 50 Over 50 honor—she continues to shape the beauty space through customer-driven product development and education-led selling.

Over the last week, the beauty industry has seen the closure of three major makeup brands: CoverFX and Mally Beauty are shuttering, while Pat McGrath Labs, once valued at $1 billion, is headed to bankruptcy. This comes on the heels of unexpected 2025 closures that included Ami Colé, Drew Barrymore's Flower Beauty, REN Clean Skincare, Apostrophe telehealth skincare and Gwyneth Paltrow's mass line Good.clean.goop. At the helm of two of these brands, CoverFX and Mally Beauty, is AS Beauty CEO Joey Shamah, the founder and former CEO of E.l.f. Cosmetics. “We've been coined as a purchaser of distressed assets [at AS Beauty], but we're not only buying [brands in] distress,” Shamah told Glossy. “We look at them in three buckets. Distressed or challenged is definitely one of them, a second one is divestitures, … and then the third way is similar, but different, where private equity funds have invested in a company, and their funds are sunsetting, so they're looking to exit.” AS Beauty was founded in 2019 by Shamah and three co-founders. It is the parent company of CoverFX and Mally Beauty, as well as Laura Geller, Julep and Bliss. While the latter two were sunset this past week, Laura Geller has grown more than 10x to over $300 million in sales, Julep has been the No. 1 selling eyeshadow brand on Amazon for several consecutive years, and Bliss has evolved into a multi-category lifestyle brand, according to AS Beauty. In total, AS Beauty's annual revenue is around $500 million, Shamah told Glossy. Shamah is also the founder and operator of Fit for Life, a fitness equipment licensing company behind brands like GAIAM, New Balance and Fila. AS Beauty purchased Mally Beauty and CoverFX in 2021 and 2022 from investment firms Beauty Visions and L Catterton Partners, respectively. In today's episode, Shamah joins the Glossy Beauty Podcast to discuss the decision to shutter CoverFX and Mally Beauty — at least for now, we learned — and the economic pressure that led to the decision. He also discussed the challenges of running an underperforming brand, the warning signs that a brand is in distress, and the way an operator comes to the decision to sell, shutter or file bankruptcy.

Laura Geller's love of beauty began backstage on Broadway and behind the scenes with celebrities — but her true passion has always been making makeup work for real women. That belief led her to launch Laura Geller Beauty, a brand rooted in simplicity, inclusivity, and confidence at every age.In this episode, we're joined by Laura Geller, Founder, and Sara Mitzner, VP of Marketing, to discuss how the brand continues to resonate with women 40+ while thriving in today's fast-moving marketing landscape. From QVC to social media, affiliate marketing to storytelling, this conversation explores what it really takes to build longevity — especially when marketing to an audience often ignored by the beauty industry.This episode is especially relevant for millennial and Gen Z marketers navigating how to modernize legacy brands, build trust across generations, and market with purpose.Key Takeaways:// Women 40+ Are an Underserved Growth Opportunity: Brands that genuinely understand and respect this audience can build deep loyalty and long-term growth.// Legacy Brands Win by Staying True to Their Core: Evolution doesn't mean reinvention — the strongest brands modernize their channels without abandoning their values.// Social Media Isn't Just for Younger Audiences: With the right tone, humor, and authenticity, social content can connect across generations.// Storytelling Builds Trust in Beauty Marketing: Real experiences, real education, and real representation matter more than perfection.// Focus Beats Fragmentation: With so many marketing channels available, clarity on where to invest time and budget is critical.// Longevity Comes from Purpose: Building something meaningful — not just trendy — is what creates brands that last decades.Connect with Laura Geller Beauty: Website | LinkedIn____Join the MHH Collective!

Kate met Laura through her friend QVC host Sandra Bennett. Laura Geller is the founder of Laura Geller Make-up Studios and Laura Geller Beauty. While working as a makeup artist in television, film, and theater in New York City in the 1990s, her clients encouraged her to open a makeup studio. She became known for her wearable looks and magnetic personality–two talents that made her a resounding success on air at QVC. For example, in 1997, the first product from her eponymous makeup line–a highlight and contour kit–sold out in minutes. A few years later, Laura Geller Beauty's award-winning Spackle Skin Perfecting Primer was born. Two decades later, it remains a cult favorite. Laura discusses how her parents influenced her career, the women in beauty who have inspired her most, and the best life lessons.
