In the late 80s and early 90s, makeup artist Bobbi Brown made a
name for herself by pioneering a more natural look long before it
became the dominant trend. She eventually turned her side hustle
selling lipstick out of her house in suburban New Jersey into a
billion-dollar eponymous makeup brand that changed the beauty
industry. But her unceremonious exit from parent company Esteé
Lauder, with approximately four years left on a 25-year noncompete
clause, stripped her of the company she had built over decades and
sidelined her from the industry. Now in her 60s, Brown has
started over with a new makeup line called Jones Road, and she’s
telling her story in a memoir, “Still Bobbi: A Master Class in
Resilience and Reinvention.” Kara and Brown talk about how
she changed the makeup industry and founded a second successful
company, plus where she sees the beauty industry headed in the era
of influencers and social media. Questions? Comments? Email
