She said,
“I think the [live events] industry was blindsided by what happened. I was like, I can’t focus on myself right now because that’s too difficult. So I had this opportunity to redirect it.”
She was joined by some of the biggest names in the beauty industry along with founders and leaders from numerous other brands, including Violet Grey, Costa Brazil, Summer Fridays, Milk Makeup, the Honey Pot Company, First Aid Beauty, Pursoma, Harry’s, Versed, and Follain.
Talking about her in the beauty industry, she revealed,
“I don’t really have a beauty background. I’ve only been in the beauty industry the past six years. But I started calling all my industry friends. No one knew of any industry response to the pandemic, so I gathered about 40 brands, and we started weekly calls.”
