But 0:07:41.000 --> 0:07:44.520 clearly you took something that was devastating. You lost your 0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:47.400 best friend to cancer, and you watched her fight like hell, 0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:49.480 and you took that fight that she had in her 0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:55.160 you and you gave so many other women a reason 0:07:55.280 --> 0:07:57.080 to feel good in the morning when they're in the 0:07:57.120 --> 0:07:59.640 middle of this fight and when you're struggling whatever it is. 0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:01.240 It's just true, when. 0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:03.720 You put on a good shade of lipstick, it can 0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:06.440 actually brighten your day, it can make you feel better. 0:08:06.520 --> 0:08:09.280 It's the look good, feel good method. And when you're 0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:12.880 going through stuff and you're down on yourself, sometimes it 0:08:12.960 --> 0:08:15.080 just takes one little pick me up. And to know 0:08:15.160 --> 0:08:19.520 that when we purchase your products, it goes for a cause, 0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:23.440 it goes to help others. That is to me, like 0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:26.600 the most amazing business model ever. And so I have 0:08:26.720 --> 0:08:31.520 applauded you and watched you when you had almost zero sales. 0:08:31.680 --> 0:08:33.800 No to just keep what's zero sales? 0:08:33.840 --> 0:08:36.400 She's the day one.

And so, you know, to go back to 0:10:42.720 --> 0:10:45.840 that moment of ten years ago, at the moment I 0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:46.280 met her. 0:10:46.200 --> 0:10:47.400 I was like, oh my gosh, I got to name 0:10:47.440 --> 0:10:48.319 a product after her. 0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:50.800 But it had to be the right product, and it 0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:53.040 had to be the one that really embodied something that 0:10:53.120 --> 0:10:56.760 not only you love, but something that means something about 0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:59.720 who you are. And so that is why we're Yes, 0:10:59.760 --> 0:11:02.360 we the shades after people, but it has to be 0:11:02.480 --> 0:11:03.640 the perfect shade. 0:11:03.679 --> 0:11:05.240 So this is the perfect shade. 0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:05.920 We hailed it. 0:11:15.080 --> 0:11:18.280 When you kiss Amy, you're going to be kissing Amy, 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:20.000 you know what I mean. 0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:22.880 You just messed it up. Now I'm going to be 0:11:22.920 --> 0:11:26.680 kissing Amy. Thinking about Christ's so weird. 0:11:28.160 --> 0:11:31.280 You know, I mean, because the name means sheer strength, 0:11:31.280 --> 0:11:34.679 and that's I mean you, you are sheer strength. And 0:11:34.760 --> 0:11:37.320 so it's it's so special to have a shade that's 0:11:37.320 --> 0:11:38.959 not only going to look gorgeous on her, but it's 0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:42.000 also going to empower so many people to feel that 0:11:42.080 --> 0:11:44.160 sheer strength when they are going through all different types 0:11:44.200 --> 0:11:44.920 of things in their lives. 0:11:44.920 --> 0:11:46.640 Okay, can I get the I want to make sure 0:11:46.640 --> 0:11:49.960 I get the product description right. Sheer strength hydrating lip tint. 0:11:50.120 --> 0:11:54.079 Shade name Amy shade description peach, pink shimmer. 0:11:54.520 --> 0:11:57.920 Love it, that's my colors. I mean I love that 0:11:58.040 --> 0:12:00.800 whole look. I mean, you really did apps sslutely nail it. 0:12:00.840 --> 0:12:04.880 And I'm curious when people go on to purchase whatever 0:12:04.920 --> 0:12:06.480 shade that they prefer. 0:12:07.720 --> 0:12:11.199 The Amy Obviously it's the bestseller, it's going to be. 0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:12.080 The bestseller right now. 0:12:12.200 --> 0:12:16.800 Of how much when people do purchase this, how much 0:12:17.080 --> 0:12:19.680 goes to the cause or to a cause? Can you 0:12:19.679 --> 0:12:21.920 give people a sense of where their money is going, 0:12:22.000 --> 0:12:23.000 not just for the product. 0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:26.520 Yes, So literally, when somebody purchases. 0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:28.040 An AMY, we're going to be donating an Amy. 0:12:28.840 --> 0:12:30.160 That's how it works. 0:12:30.360 --> 0:12:34.200 And so when somebody is using the shade, they can 0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:36.599 know that they've also given back to a cause that 0:12:37.120 --> 0:12:39.559 they care deeply about and that's going to help someone. 0:12:39.600 --> 0:12:42.319 And I think what's really special also is after we 0:12:42.400 --> 0:12:45.240 surprise somebody, then we ask them what charities we want 0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:48.440 the donations to be directed towards, and so that's where 0:12:48.440 --> 0:12:50.840 we start the philanthropy and then from there we build 0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:51.679 it with the community. 0:12:51.800 --> 0:12:55.000 So, oh, that's really cool. I have a few organizations 0:12:55.080 --> 0:12:57.600 in mind. Tell me, yes, absolutely. Well. 0:12:57.600 --> 0:12:59.000 The first one for. 0:12:59.040 --> 0:13:07.040 Me is, yeah, they've lost some billions, a lot of 0:13:07.160 --> 0:13:11.400 billions of dollars. No, My first organization that I have 0:13:11.480 --> 0:13:14.040 been an ambassador for over the years that I believe 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:17.400 strongly in is BCRF, and this was the organization that 0:13:17.480 --> 0:13:20.520 was founded by Evelyn Laughter. She actually created the pink ribbon, 0:13:21.120 --> 0:13:24.600 but she was a breast cancer survivor. She didn't talk 0:13:24.600 --> 0:13:26.640 a lot about it publicly. She ended up succumbing to 0:13:26.720 --> 0:13:30.760 ovarian cancer. But this is a woman who talk about 0:13:30.800 --> 0:13:34.280 changing lives and saving lives. Her awareness campaign and what 0:13:34.360 --> 0:13:36.440 she did for the cause, I actually credit to me 0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:40.280 finding my cancer because she was in part the reason 0:13:40.320 --> 0:13:44.160 behind October one, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, that pink ribbon 0:13:44.160 --> 0:13:46.200 that we see so much of, and that is the 0:13:46.240 --> 0:13:49.280 reason why I walked into that Mamma Van and got 0:13:49.280 --> 0:13:53.280 my baseline mammogram at forty that found my stage two 0:13:53.320 --> 0:13:56.640 invasive breast cancer. So it was a full circle moment 0:13:56.720 --> 0:14:01.680 for me when her husband came up to me and said, 0:14:01.720 --> 0:14:03.720 I'd like you to be an ambassador, and he said, 0:14:03.760 --> 0:14:05.880 my wife would have loved you, and so I said, 0:14:05.920 --> 0:14:08.720 she is in part a reason why I'm standing here today. 0:14:09.400 --> 0:14:12.720 So Leonard latter asked me to be a part of 0:14:12.720 --> 0:14:15.679 the organization, and I happily did so. And this is 0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:19.280 a group that actually is the largest private funder of 0:14:19.560 --> 0:14:21.280 breast cancer research around the world. 0:14:21.400 --> 0:14:22.920 They are in. 0:14:22.800 --> 0:14:25.400 Part credited for the drug that I took for almost 0:14:25.440 --> 0:14:27.680 ten years to moxifen. So I just think this is 0:14:27.680 --> 0:14:30.600 an organization that actually, any private organization is going to 0:14:30.640 --> 0:14:32.560 find a cure for cancer or a way to make 0:14:32.600 --> 0:14:35.400 it a chronic disease, it's this one. So I am 0:14:35.760 --> 0:14:38.960 so happy to do that. And the other cause that 0:14:39.000 --> 0:14:41.640 I'm really passionate about. The other organization is five hundred 0:14:41.680 --> 0:14:45.520 forty and this is a group that gives back to 0:14:45.520 --> 0:14:47.440 women under the age of forty who are dealing with 0:14:47.480 --> 0:14:48.120 breast cancer. 0:14:48.160 --> 0:14:50.560 And they do have a huge campaign because these are. 0:14:50.440 --> 0:14:53.720 Young women who are dating, who are newly in the workforce, 0:14:53.760 --> 0:14:57.040 who hadn't even thought about what it would be like 0:14:57.160 --> 0:14:58.920 to have breast cancer, which I think a lot of 0:14:58.920 --> 0:15:01.480 people thought was an older woman disease. So they give 0:15:01.920 --> 0:15:04.800 makeup tutorials, they get wigs for these women, and so 0:15:05.200 --> 0:15:08.200 to be able to have Thrive cosmetics to provide for 0:15:08.240 --> 0:15:11.360 some of these women who are facing the unthinkable at 0:15:11.360 --> 0:15:13.760 a very early age. I love that, So right off 0:15:13.760 --> 0:15:15.840 the bat, those would be my two favorite organizations. 0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:19.680 Well that is perfect because we have them as giving 0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:21.520 partners as a part of our organization. 0:15:22.240 --> 0:15:24.440 So yeah, kis met. Yeah, that's so. 0:15:25.040 --> 0:15:27.160 Thank you for sharing all you did about BCRF in 0:15:27.200 --> 0:15:29.560 the way that they really help save your life. We've 0:15:29.560 --> 0:15:31.520 worked with them for many years. I did not know 0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:35.640 the depth of how much they have done for you 0:15:35.680 --> 0:15:37.400 and for others, so that's truly incredible. 0:15:37.480 --> 0:15:38.520 Yeah, doctor, go ahead. 0:15:38.720 --> 0:15:40.120 I was just going to also give a shout out 0:15:40.120 --> 0:15:43.120 to doctor Larry Norton, who is a huge part of 0:15:43.120 --> 0:15:45.760 the organization and probably one of the premier minds on 0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:50.160 breast cancer and specifically metastatic breast cancer. And for those 0:15:50.280 --> 0:15:53.520 folks who listen to our podcast regularly, you know, my 0:15:53.920 --> 0:15:56.600 are really good friend Morgan who is stage four metastatic 0:15:56.600 --> 0:15:59.920 who just had that baby through a surrogate. Doctor Norton 0:16:00.120 --> 0:16:02.840 actually reached out to her and is helping her now. 0:16:03.200 --> 0:16:05.320 Find better therapies. 0:16:05.720 --> 0:16:08.880 She's a seven year metastatics survivor right now, so he 0:16:09.000 --> 0:16:11.400 took the time to talk to her, to reach out 0:16:11.400 --> 0:16:13.720 to her, to consult with her. This is an organization. 0:16:13.920 --> 0:16:16.080 Just doctor Norton is the best, so I just wanted 0:16:16.120 --> 0:16:17.600 to sing his praises as well. 0:16:18.000 --> 0:16:20.520 You were mentioning everybody who buys an Amy, somebody else 0:16:20.680 --> 0:16:23.160 is going to don't. One's going to be donated essentially. 0:16:23.200 --> 0:16:24.920 But the other big part of what you do is 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:27.440 clean beauty. When you explain that to me with your. 0:16:27.360 --> 0:16:31.280 Product, yes, I think, especially given everything that Amy just 0:16:31.320 --> 0:16:34.120 described about the people that we serve, especially in the 0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:38.080 cancer community, they're immune compromised, and so ensuring that our 0:16:38.120 --> 0:16:42.360 products are as clean as possible is very important. So 0:16:42.640 --> 0:16:46.200 it's pretty standard in the industry to make sure that 0:16:46.680 --> 0:16:51.160 you know you're doing baseline clinical studies, and not every 0:16:51.160 --> 0:16:54.400 brand does do that, but we have done clinical studies 0:16:54.440 --> 0:16:57.920 not only with dermatologists and plastic surgeons, but on cologists 0:16:57.960 --> 0:17:02.040 as well from the beginning, and so consulting incredible minds 0:17:02.360 --> 0:17:04.879 like doctor Norton, like you were talking about, I love 0:17:05.080 --> 0:17:06.720 our friend doctor Elizabeth. 0:17:06.840 --> 0:17:08.720 Oh, by the way, it's also. 0:17:08.520 --> 0:17:11.440 A share strength gamesake, so you are in good company. 0:17:12.080 --> 0:17:15.199 Gonna have to have a little party, well I have to. 0:17:15.320 --> 0:17:18.560 It's I mean, for those who don't know, doctor Elizabeth 0:17:18.600 --> 0:17:25.680 is another incredible advocate researcher, doctor oncologist in the cancer 0:17:25.720 --> 0:17:28.919 space specifically has saved so many lives in breast cancer 0:17:28.960 --> 0:17:32.640 as well, and a friend of mine and Amy, So 0:17:32.960 --> 0:17:36.280 this is it's it's really important to us that when 0:17:36.320 --> 0:17:38.600 we talk about clean, the way that we define it 0:17:38.640 --> 0:17:41.760 is the thousands of ingredients we will never use, as 0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:44.360 well as partnering with different doctors to ensure that they're 0:17:44.400 --> 0:17:45.359 safe for all people. 0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:49.840 Well, you also, what is Mother's Day like for a company, 0:17:50.040 --> 0:17:54.720 a cosmetic company and specifically one with a cause like yours. 0:17:55.000 --> 0:17:56.800 I guess what do you see around this time?

It's not just a 0:17:58.600 --> 0:18:01.000 matter of sales, but I guess what do you all 0:18:01.040 --> 0:18:03.560 even take on is knowing this is a special time 0:18:03.640 --> 0:18:05.919 that you know a lot of folks who maybe not 0:18:06.080 --> 0:18:10.040 used to buying cosmetics to buy some for someone that they. 0:18:09.880 --> 0:18:10.560 Love right now. 0:18:11.000 --> 0:18:13.199 Yes, well, you know I have to start with the 0:18:13.240 --> 0:18:16.800 cause because literally this just a couple days ago, I 0:18:16.920 --> 0:18:21.000 was in Los Angeles and we had what we call 0:18:21.040 --> 0:18:23.800 a giving event, which is essentially a party where we 0:18:23.840 --> 0:18:28.200 are teaching makeup master classes to people who are affiliated 0:18:28.240 --> 0:18:29.440 with our different giving partners. 0:18:29.680 --> 0:18:31.320 So in honor of Mother's Day. 0:18:31.400 --> 0:18:33.400 We worked with one of our giving partners, the Joy 0:18:33.440 --> 0:18:36.159 Taylor Foundation, which was started by Joy Taylor, who is 0:18:36.480 --> 0:18:39.520 an amazing broadcaster in the sports world, but is also 0:18:39.880 --> 0:18:42.480 a domestic violence survivor and she's very public with that, 0:18:43.160 --> 0:18:45.920 and so she started this nonprofit really to empower women 0:18:45.960 --> 0:18:49.800 who had experienced domestic violence, and in honor of Mother's Day, 0:18:49.880 --> 0:18:53.400 we got mothers together. We had a mom and aunt 0:18:54.000 --> 0:18:56.960 and a daughter who was pregnant so she's about to 0:18:56.960 --> 0:18:57.640 become a mother. 0:18:57.760 --> 0:18:59.040 I mean, it was so special. 0:18:59.359 --> 0:19:02.840 But we fill our event space in Los Angeles with 0:19:03.000 --> 0:19:06.520 all of these bright souls and we did a makeup masterclass. 0:19:06.680 --> 0:19:09.000 Then we had a full on photo shoot so they 0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:11.920 all got headshots. It was so fun and that's where 0:19:11.960 --> 0:19:14.520 we so you know, when we talk about donating an amy, 0:19:15.000 --> 0:19:17.919 we're also teaching people how to use it and making 0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:19.719 them feel really empowered through that. 0:19:19.880 --> 0:19:20.720
