We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Emilie Mascarell. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Emilie below.
Emilie, we’re thrilled to have you on our platform and we think there is so much folks can learn from you and your story. Something that matters deeply to us is living a life and leading a career filled with purpose and so let’s start by chatting about how you found your purpose.
About a year and a half ago, I took a leap from the corporate world to start Emilie Consulting, and that’s when my career found its real purpose. Helping companies in the beauty industry, especially those just starting out, became my passion. Seeing the struggles of newcomers without a network or experience fueled my desire to make a positive impact. Emilie Consulting is my way of not just guiding founders through the industry maze but also rooting for their success. My purpose expanded to shaping a values-driven beauty industry, giving importance to quality, consumer experience, and sustainability.
Let’s take a small detour – maybe you can share a bit about yourself before we dive back into some of the other questions we had for you?
In my career journey, I’ve contributed to industry leaders such as L’Oréal and Coty, and I’ve led product development in the startup success story of Le Labo for over a decade. This diverse experience led to the creation of Emilie Consulting, aiming to bridge gaps for startups by providing essential networks, knowledge, and personalized guidance.
Emilie Consulting serves as a dedicated partner for startups, providing expertise in product development, marketing, and overall strategy. Functioning as an in-house team without the full-time salary commitment, we aim to empower startups with valuable insights and support.
Our core focus is on ensuring quality, enhancing the consumer experience, and promoting sustainability. This approach enables startups to navigate the competitive market effectively.
Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?
Reflecting on my journey, a supportive network, passion for beauty products, and an entrepreneurial spirit have played a crucial role. For those embarking on their journey, my advice is to not hesitate to ask questions, never overlook the importance of quality, and actively build a network.
Okay, so before we go we always love to ask if you are looking for folks to partner or collaborate with?
Absolutely! I’m always looking for new collaborations with vendors and beauty service providers who share a passion for supporting beauty startups. If you offer unique ingredients, packaging solutions, or specialized services, let’s connect.
