Podcast appearances and mentions of wende zomnir

Wende Zomnir is someone we consider a beauty titan on Gloss Angeles: she co-founded the longstanding cosmetics brand Urban Decay in the '90s, and after selling to L'Oreal and leaving the brand herself, she launched another one: inspired by her passion for the beach, surfing and sustainability, Caliray was born, Wende has a wealth of knowledge about the industry, so we're thrilled to have her on the pod. She shares how Urban Decay was born at a time where brands weren't a dime a dozen, her thoughts on the Naked palette resurrection, what Urban was doing before any other makeup brand, and what she thinks matters most to consumers when it comes to products. Plus, how she keeps the "dirty minds" alive with Caliray and how her second brand differs from her first. She also reveals the product she'd like to see revived in our Misscontinued segment.Shop this episodeWatch our episodes!GlossAngelesPod.comCALL or TEXT US: 424-341-0426Join our Slack to try new products before they launchJoin our FB GroupInstagram: @glossangelspod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

In episode 133 of the Glow Journal podcast, host Gemma Dimond talks to the co-founder of Urban Decay and Caliray, Wende Zomnir. Wende Zomnir is beauty industry royalty. This is the woman behind the Naked Palette, Urban Decay's now-iconic 2010 launch that ensured this already wildly successful brand would go down in beauty history. Wende, alongside the tech mastermind that is Sandy Lerner, founded Urban Decay in 1996 with a distinctly grunge, “punk” if you will aesthetic. That in and of itself was revolutionary, when you consider that the most popular brands at the time were the likes of Clinique who were championing that very clean, very fresh look. Urban Decay was dark and bold and edgy, and thanks to some serious guerrilla marketing from Wende it quickly found its way into the hands of Gwen Stefani and Garbage front woman Shirley Manson. Urban Decay was acquired by the L'Oréal group in 2012, with Wende staying on as CCO until 2022, soon after launching her latest beauty venture- Caliray, a brand that harnesses Wende's love of and expertise in beauty with her longstanding passion for the environment and sustainability, with industry sources estimating that the brand generated between $20 and $25 million USD in retail sales in 2023. In this conversation, Wende shares what it was like officially working with Gwen Stefani about 20 years after hunting her down at a music festival, what she believes it takes to create a truly iconic beauty product, and the full story behind the now infamous Urban Decay Naked Palette.Read more at glowjournal.comFollow Caliray on Instagram @caliray.Stay up to date with Gemma on Instagram at @gemdimond and @glow.journal, or get in touch at hello@gemkwatts.com Hosted on Acast.

ABOUT Wende Zomnir In the mid-‘90s when the prestige beauty market was a boring sea of pink, red and beige, Wende envisioned a shake-up and unleashed Urban Decay on the old-school cosmetics industry, filling the void with makeup in an insane range of colors and shade names that fueled a beauty revolution. Urban Decay democratized beauty before anyone else and Wende paved the way for every beauty entrepreneur. No one had their "makeup as empowerment" attitude and slate of killer never-before-seen color. They democratized beauty before anyone else. and paved the way for every beauty entrepreneur.  But, Wende actually has more to say and is less afraid to say it at 50 than she was at 27 when she chased the California dream and couldn't find it until landing in Laguna Beach and falling in love. That beautiful place made her feel beautiful and empowered. In October 2021, Wende Zomnir co-founded Caliray, a West Coast beauty brand made of clean formulas, dirty minds, and sexy sustainability. The brand blends makeup with wellness to create innovative concoctions with innocent ingredients. Caliray is California Beauty Unfiltered – designed for less makeup, more living. Wende resides in Newport Beach, California, with her husband Doug Collier, and hilarious sons Crash and Cruz. In her spare time, Wende can be found surfing, diving, snowboarding, cross-country skiing, Crossfitting, playing tennis, hitting a volleyball, mountain biking, practicing yoga, running, and of course, knitting. Her secret ambitions are to become a painter and write a book.

Lamenting the variety of exciting colors in the mid-90's makeup scene, the two bonded and Urban Decay cosmetics was born. A fan of big hair and big makeup since her childhood in Texas, Wende always had a creative, adventurous streak. Pair that with a dash of grit and resourcefulness, and you get one tenacious entrepreneur. Wende famously made her first sale with Nordstrom within 24 hours of contacting their buyer. These days she's taken on more of a leadership role, but whether she's working, knitting or diving with sharks, Wende is all about creating balance in a busy world. Thanks for listening!

Wende Zomnir began her career in marketing at the Leo Burnett Company. She loved it, but she hated the cold in Chicago. She moved to California where she continued working in marketing, but struggled to find fulfillment in her new job. She wanted to create and to be her own boss, so she started Urban Decay, where she set out to change how women look in makeup and brought her own spin to the world of color cosmetics. Today, Wende joins us to talk about how she grew Urban Decay into the global beauty empire it is today through smart marketing tactics, groundbreaking formulas, and iconic products. She talks about how she discovered a passion for makeup at an early age and how her partnership with Sandy Lerner would change the color cosmetics industry. She tells about the early days of Urban Decay, and how they marketed their brand in a time before social media. She explains how she first built her team and shares her favorite interview question that helps her determine if someone is the right fit for the job. She talks about the impact of COVID-19 on her business, including the acceleration of virtual try ons. She shares her experience selling Urban Decay and talks about why she wishes she had predicted the bumps in the road that came with the transition. She explains how getting acquired helped Urban Decay reach its goal of becoming a global brand. She talks about balancing motherhood and business-building, and she takes some time to recognize the mentors that have helped her along the way. She fends off a rapid-fire Q&A and shares some tips for successfully striking a healthy work-life balance, noting the importance of making constant tiny adjustments. “It's really easy as you get into makeup--it's a creative field--to be artistic, to want to be self-expressive, to put the brand out there. But it's also a business, so it's really important to run it like a business.” This week on SocialFly's Entreprenista Podcast: Finding the balance between diving into your work and letting it become an obsessionThe work-life balanceThe Covid impactCoping with the unexpectedThe importance of surrounding yourself with people whose strengths balance out your weaknesses Connect with Wende Wende's InstagramWende's FacebookUrban Decay products at Sephora  Work Party!

Starting her career in advertising, Wende Zomnir, Founding Partner of Urban Decay Cosmetics, figured out pretty early that writing cat food copy was not going to cut it for her. A serendipitous call connected her to the partner with whom she would launch Urban Decay, the ultra-disruptive brand that took the girly, sugary makeup of 25 years ago and turned it on its head, offering looks for women who didn't fit—and didn't want to fit—the conventional beauty-consumer mold. Wende shares her story, including thoughts on empowering the women around her while doing the same for herself.#wherebrainsmeetbeauty@wherebrainsmeetbeautypodcastwherebrainsmeetbeauty.com

We are back and on this episode, we sit down with Urban Decay's co-founder and chief creative officer Wende Zomnir to discuss how she built the brand from the ground up and continues to preserve her artistic vision for “makeup for girls and boys who want to show the world who they are and put their own stamp on it.”. We get real about Urban Decay's stance on cruelty-free products, their plans for a more sustainable future, and how Wende manages to squeeze in family fun whilst building a global makeup empire. Find Wende on Instagram @udwende and us @kitkeenan and @cynthiarowley as always!

This week, we talk to Wende Zomnir, the founder and chief creative officer of Urban Decay. She tells us how she created a makeup brand specializing in bold colors in an age where nudes dominated. Plus, she gives us an inside scoop on the beauty industry and talks us through where she sees it going next. 

Meet Wende Zomnir, co-founder of Urban Decay, the 90s makeup brand that’s as relevant today as it was in its graffiti-grunge heyday. In today’s episode, the Texas-born pageant girl, Mom and surfer recalls how frustration with the candy-pink facade of the beauty biz drove her to start a rebellious cosmetics company that was years ahead of its time with out-of-the-crayon-box bold eyeshadows, blue lipsticks and all-gendered, near-black nail polishes to mark its initial lineup. We also get the incredible back story behind *the* NAKED palette that helped propel Urban Decay to the top of the beauty game (estimates are that they have topped 1 billion dollars in sales of just that one palette since it launched in 2010!)
