We’re joined by Deepica Mutyala, the creator-turned-founder who built Live Tinted into one of the most culturally impactful brands at Ulta Beauty. We get into her founder routine, the early audience insights that gave her an edge before “creator-founder” was even a term, and why nailing the complexion category is so important to her. We also talk hero products (is it Huestick or Hueguard?), unexpected hits and misses, and what it really takes to stand out on shelves at Ulta. Plus, Deepica shares her honest take on whether beauty has actually become more inclusive or just better at marketing it—and how she keeps Live Tinted grounded in its mission as it scales.

This week, we’re diving into the latest beauty news — starting with the growing epidemic of over-the-top brand mailers, from performers showing up at your door to giant, impossible-to-ignore deliveries (very The Devil Wears Prada). Then, it’s time for “Misscontinued,” where we mourn the products that still live rent-free in our heads — especially Marc Jacobs Beauty’s Velvet Noir mascara, Omega Bronze, and those iconic magnetic lipsticks — which leads us to a major update: Marc Jacobs Beauty is officially returning in June 2026!!! We also get into a quick update on Pat McGrath and what’s next for the legendary artist and her brand.

This week, we’re joined by Nour Tayara, founder of AORA and a beauty industry veteran on a mission to make beauty plastic-free. After nearly two decades at L’Oréal, Nour pulls back the curtain on what he learned about waste, overconsumption, and the myths we’ve been sold about “luxury” packaging. We get into how AORA is rethinking sustainability from the ground up, why Mexico is central to the brand’s story (and how to do that respectfully), plus the real data behind building a purpose-driven beauty brand.
