This is your secret weapon ladies! “You have to know what you don’t know. If you think you know everything, you’re wrong.” Christina started her love affair with makeup as a model at 20 years old. She loved being in the makeup trailer around all the fun and excitement and seeing the power of makeup to truly transform. It didn’t matter if you have dark circles or blemishes of any kind, makeup was there to wipe it all away. She grew up, left modeling and started producing, got married and had kids, but she never stopped being a makeup junkie. Around the time makeup palettes started coming out, she had an idea about having a built-it-yourself palette, where you can only have the colors that match you, instead of a bunch of colors you’ll never want. She met with a consultant who loved her idea and with that help and confidence Jouer was launched in 2008! “I don’t want to be slide 6 of 15 of the concealers you need now article.

When she started working with influencers, she was able to double her business in a year! No wonder she’s all in on it now. In this episode she dives deep into how she thinks about influencers and who are the types of people she goes after, how the current PR package list saturation and audience burnout is forcing her to adapt her approach for finding new influencers, how to stand out to a brand and not be a drop in the sea of pitches brands receive, and so much more! “You need to always follow your gut.
