Live Tinted founder Deepica Mutyala is on the Female Founder World show with Jasmine Garnsworthy. Deepica went viral in 2015 (way before going viral was a common thing) for a beauty hack, which landed her a gig on the Today Show. She quit her job and went all in as a beauty influencer, three years later launching the color cosmetics brand she always wished existed, Live Tinted.
Live Tinted has grown 174% year over year, raised $15M, is one of the fastest growing brands in Ulta, and sells one skin tint every three minutes—wow!
In this conversation Deepica shares what she would do differently starting a beauty biz from zero, her take on founder cancellations and mega exits, and the opportunities she sees for growing businesses today.
