EP. 37: diarrha n'diaye on launching ami colé

Listen up if you want to become a full-time freelance makeup artist or launch your own beauty brand!
In this episode of The Life of a Makeup Artist, we have a very special guest. Diarrha N'Diaye-Mbaye, my dear friend and the founder of Ami Cole, joins us to share her journey from working with brands like L’Oreal, Temptu, and Glossier to now launching her own brand.
Of course, there were trials and triumphs along the way, and today we get the inside scoop.
We talk about all things skin, who you might run into (and who we've run into!) when shopping in New York, and, possibly most importantly, we talk about shade range and inclusivity within the beauty industry.
If you know me, you know that I don't even bother with brands that don't have a real shade range that I can use for my clients. Diarrha talks about what inclusivity means at Ami Cole. Hint: it's more than marketing jargon. She shares how she got the collection right to make sure Ami Cole is a truly inclusive beauty brand.
Diarrha N'Diaye-Mbaye is a data-driven beauty marketer turned founder of the beauty brand, Ami Colé. She is moved by scents, textures, quality ingredients, and the worldly inspirations that influence our view of beauty.
