Click here to enter our subscriber competition valued at $3,445. In today's episode, I'm delighted to share my conversation with the legendary Poppy King. Known as the Lipstick Queen, Poppy's career has been a testament to the transformative power of lipstick and its profound psychological impact. I first met Poppy during an interview for Vogue at the launch of her second brand, Lipstick Queen. Starting her first company, Poppy Industries, at just 19, she had quickly became a leading name in the Australian beauty industry, earning the Young Australian of the Year award in 1995. Poppy's journey wasn't all smooth sailing. After expanding to the U.S., Poppy Industries faced financial difficulties and she had to close the business, but she bounced back with Lipstick Queen in 2006, which she eventually sold. Now, with her eponymous brand Poppy King, she's come full circle, using her original matte formulas and Melbourne manufacturer from the 90s. Poppy's unique perspective is deeply influenced by her father, a psychiatrist, who instilled in her a curiosity about the human mind. Her storytelling weaves fairy tales and personal transformation, making each lipstick a journey of self-discovery and empowerment.

Poppy King has always swum against the tide, and the beauty industry is all the better for it. She first made a splash as a 19-year-old with a line of 1940s-style matte lipsticks when the rest of the world was still wearing frosted pink. From there, she was tapped by Leonard Lauder himself to work with Estée Lauder in New York, went on to launch Lipstick Queen, and has worked with brands including J. Crew, Kate Spade and Boots. Now, she has come full circle, launching a line of lipsticks in her name, manufactured in Australia, and set to take on the world once more.
Poppy King has nothing left to prove. She has created two successful beauty lines, ridden the corporate wave, and done it all with her integrity intact. She's one of the few beauty entrepreneurs with the courage to sit out trends that don't feel right (like founder-as-social-media-star) and speak up on industry issues that feel misguided (the endless obsession with growth at all costs). In this interview, she and Jess talk value-driven success; “humble” brands she loves; why she stepped away from her line, Lipstick Queen; and what she's doing next.Products mentioned in this episode: shopmy.us/collections/208905Episode recap with links: fatmascara.com/blogSponsor links & discount codes: fatmascara.com/sponsorsPrivate Facebook Group: Fat Mascara Raising a WandSocial media: @fatmascara, @jessicamatlin, @jenn_editSubmit a "Raise A Wand" product recommendation and be featured on the show: email info@fatmascara.com or leave a voicemail at 646-481-8182 Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/fatmascara.

Back in the 90s, Poppy King launched her own lipstick brand at age 18 with 7 lipsticks named after the 7 deadly sins.

It devastated Poppy. She survived. And she thrived. In this episode, Poppy King joins Mia Freedman to share her 5 rules for female founders. From giving up her own name, to working for a huge global cosmetics company and launching and selling businesses - Poppy shares lessons she has learnt along the way and reveals what’s next for Australia’s original Lady Startup and lipstick queen.

It’s possible you’ve been consuming content by Kim France for thirty-ish years, and we’re here to talk about all of it (including her new podcast—which, have you listened?!). Also, not to be the people who talk about our meditation experiences, but we kind of can’t shut up about this one time, ok? The linkage: Hit up the Sky Ting yoga classes taught by Marisa Meltzer (in NYC) that we loved. Check out Kim France’s podcast, which she co-hosts with Tally Abecassis, called Everything Is Fine and her fashion ‘n shopping blog Girls of a Certain Age. Both are ideal for women over 40 and the over-40-curious. How Sassy Changed My Live, which the very same Marisa Meltzer co-authored with Kara Jesella, is itself iconic at this point. Kim goes deep on her creative partnership with Andrea Linett while running Lucky in our book Work Wife. For a preview of the book Kim is writing, read her Medium essays about the beautiful house that didn’t make for a beautiful life and depression at the Condé Nast holiday lunch. Oh, and read her essays on vanity and dressing your age for The Cut while you’re at it. Speaking of editors in chief, Dan Peres (of Details) just released As Needed for Pain, and this NYT story about that whole late-nineties/early-aughts magazine era is pretty juicy. Kim shops The RealReal (join the club!), Warm, and Maria Cornejo. Shout out to the magazine Gossamer, which is for people who also smoke weed. Two friends we lost much too soon: David Rakoff and Jason Polan. Bring on that menopause content. See: Darcy Steinke’s book Flash Count Diary, Party Girl, this Broad City scene, and this Fleabag one. You wanna talk about beauty stuff? Excellent! Kim is very into Drunk Elephant, SK-II Pitera Facial Treatment Masks, Tatcha The Silk Canvas Protective Primer, and Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask. For a red lip, she’s all about Kosas in Royal, Lipstick Queen, and those Nars Velvet Matte Lipstick Pencils. Kim’s watching Cheer, Fleabag, Killing Eve, The Crown, Victoria and reading Why We Can’t Sleep by Ada Calhoun, Ninety-Nine Glimpses of Princess Margaret, and (as always) Go Fug Yourself.

Today, Poppy King (founder of the game-changing, Australian-born beauty brand Lipstick Queen and author of the popular book Lessons of a Lipstick Queen) might just remind you of the Roald Dahl version of Willy Wonka. But the real story is how at just 7 years old a determination was sparked in her that led to becoming one of Australia’s first well-known Entreprenistas, building an $8M business by the time she was 19 (during a bad economic recession, and without investors or formal business education, and a phone book as a surprisingly important resource.) When the time was right, she sold her business and became an executive at Estee Lauder to learn the corporate ropes. Now she’s launching a new brand. Poppy has worked as hard and sacrificed as much as anyone, but she looks at her story as a bit of a fairy tale. Now, it’s “Poppy unplugged”, sharing insights and stories she’s never been able to talk about before. She joins Socialfly Co-Founder Stephanie Cartin in the MouthMedia Network studio for a conversation about building her business and career, and describes her journey to success including the ah-ha moment that motivated Poppy to create, and to help other women; the detective work that’s typical for successful entreprenistas; how she went viral before social media and before going viral was even a thing; the important difference between follower and customer; why she wanted to leave Estee Lauder after 2 weeks but stayed for 3 years; how understanding that possible isn’t always probable has given her energy; and the power and joy of letting go of results. Plus, a surprise.

Welcome to the summer series of Lady Startup! The show where female entrepreneurs share the ups and downs of building an empire. Over the next four weeks, you'll be hearing a series if specially selected interviews that Mia Freedman did with amazing female entrepreneurs on her podcast, No Filter. To hear more of her awesome chats head to... https://www.mamamia.com.au/podcasts/no-filter/ This week's guest is lipstick queen, Poppy King. Poppy King was HUGE in the 90's thanks to her range of Poppy lipsticks. If you’re a woman over 30 chances are you owned at least one of them, but probably more. Her first range was named after empowering female characteristics and within 3 short years, Poppy Industries had become the biggest cosmetics company in Australia. At its height, it was turning over $8mill a year, which was huge in the '90s but in the early 2000s the company dissolved and Poppy moved to NY to work for Estee Lauder. Now she’s back with a new range called Lipstick Queen, available in Mecca, and she talks to Mia about what it was like building a business at a time when female entrepreneurship wasn't a thing.

Newly Married Bravo TV and Vanderpump Rules star talk about how her freak accident changed her life, what is important to her, the struggles of being sane on reality tv and her new lipstick line!
In today's episode, we're talking to Poppy King, founder of Lipstick Queen. What some of you might not know though, is that Poppy's career started long before she started Lipstick Queen. In fact, it kicked off in the ‘80s with the launch of her first line of lipsticks, Poppy. Her fascination with lipstick started when she was just seven years old. Her father died and her reaction was to get dressed up and do her makeup. That, she tells us, is when she first discovered the power of beauty to transform your mood and make you feel better. Her company was turning over $8 million in the first few years and by 1994, sales were up by 1500%. The first set of seven lipsticks came out in 1992 named after the seven deadly sins and Barneys started carrying them at the Madison Avenue store a year later. The brand got a cult following but it never reached its full potential and ended up closing and being sold. Having sold Poppy Industries, at the age of 30, she went to New York and started working for the Estée Lauder group on the Prescriptive brands before leaving to write her book, Lessons of a Lipstick Queen about entrepreneurship and starting her new brand. Forever the disruptor, in this episode Poppy explains how she got started at the tender age of 18 and reveals why she's chosen to be so open about the fall of her first business. We speak about what she learnt working for Estee Lauder and why she thinks the big beauty brands are getting it wrong. We talk about being fearless and daring to venture where others haven't and what she's most proud of.

In 1992, Poppy King set up Poppy Industries selling her own brand of lipstick, and within three years, her business had grown into a multi-million dollar company. She quickly became known as the ‘Lipstick Queen’. In 2002 Poppy Industries was sold to Estee Lauder. Poppy has now returned to running her own company, this time called Lipstick Queen. She has also just released her first book, Lessons of a Lipstick Queen: Finding and Developing the Great Idea That Can Change Your Life.
