Ep. 84: How Yewande Masi Used Her Breakup As Inspiration To Create Ornami Skincare
Today on the Friends in Beauty Podcast I welcome Yewande Masi to the Friends in Beauty guest chair.
Yewande Masi, the founder of Ornami Skincare. Ornami is a Black-owned, toxin-free skin and body care line that Yewande began after a breakup. Supported by friends and family, Yewande founded Ornami on the idea that sometimes finding happiness is a process of elimination. She wanted to design luxurious, toxin-free ingredients that encouraged women to take the time to care for themselves as a daily ritual. Yewande shares that our skin is with us from our first sunrise to our very last sunset; it should be unapologetically nurtured, pampered, and highly esteemed.
I absolutely enjoyed my chat with Yewande. In this interview Yewande shares:
-How a breakup inspired the creation of Ornami Skincare
-The process for launching Ornami Skincare
-How she balances having a 9-5 and running a skincare brand
-The community she is growing of strong, empowered women who believe in self-love, self-care and toxin-free living
-Advice on how to turn your pain into profit
-And she even gave us some resources on how we can get funding for our brands
Go ahead and jump into this chat with Yewande and if you prefer to watch our beautiful faces then tune in on YouTube!
