54. Building A Successful Beauty Brand in 2021 with Project Beauty Expo Founder, Brittany Brown
Today on the Currently Bossin' Podcast, we're chatting with Brittany Brown, an experiential entrepreneur who has put inclusivity at the helm of work in the beauty industry.
After graduating from Stevenson University in 2013, Brittany enrolled in the Baltimore School of Massage to study esthetics. Shortly after, Brittany launched Monee’ Cosmetics, a natural and organic skincare line. As a new beauty entrepreneur, Brittany struggled to find a space where a multicultural-women-owned indie brand could thrive in a market overrun by big names. In search of a niche in the beauty industry, Brittany founded Project Beauty Expo (PBE) in 2016 as an effort to create a support network for women of color who are interested in natural beauty, wellness, and healthy living.
In just four years, PBE has grown into a substantial platform where bloggers, natural beauty enthusiasts, and cosmetic consumers connect, collaborate, and share ideas culminating in an annual expo showcasing indie beauty and wellness brands. PBE has secured sponsorship with global brands, Target and Shopify, and has been featured in outlets such as Forbes, Essence, CEW, WWD, among many others.
Beauty is a $532 billion industry where brands are birthed every day, but Brittany understood that many indie brands struggle with starting, scaling, and sustaining their beauty business. After moving cross-country to Los Angeles in 2018, Brittany launched B. Brown Agency, a boutique marketing, and brand management agency where she helps indie brands build their digital presence and grow their sales.
