Meet The Maker: Melanie from Da lish Cosmetics

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why do you love what you do for a living?
I love helping women feel & look their absolute best. This is the whole reason why I started da lish. Plus you're too pretty to poison!
What is your favourite part of your job?
My customers of course. They are the reason I’m still here and why I’m so lucky to be able to create clean products that not only work but they feel good texture wise and won’t break your wallet.
How did you decide this is what you wanted to do?
It’s my calling. I was born to wear heels & lipstick as my Mother would say. If I wasn’t ding da lish I honestly don’t know what I’d be doing.
When did you know this was what you wanted to do?
I’ve struggled with acne since I was 12yers old and it effected me greatly growing up. I was pure gold for bullies and knew that I never wanted anyone to feel the way I have. My mission in life is for women of any age feel their best. (What was the moment? Was it a moment?)
If you could do anything else, what would it be?
I will always be in the clean beauty world. It’s my calling and there’s so much that needs to change with regulations, transparency and I’m here to do what I can.
Who inspires you?
You do Sharon! I’m so inspired by so many incredible women and beyond fortunate to be surrounded by women that I look up to and most of all doing AMAZING big things. My customers with their personal stories, and my loved one’s who have left me too soon but had so much grace and resilience.
What’s next for you and your business?
New product launches! We’ve revamped our foundations and have new shades coming out along with brow pencils, lip pencils & eye pencils + a few special collaborations with other brands that I can’t wait to share. XX Melanie
