Ep 09- Nudestix Founders Ally & Taylor Frankel

September 7, 2017


They’re beauty moguls, and they’ve just barely graduated high school. Meet Taylor and Ally Frankel, co-founders of Nudestix, the Canadian beauty brand with a teenage global following. With their mother Jenny Frankel—a chemical engineer who once developed blockbusters for M.A.C. and started up Cover FX—the Nudestix sisters have created a name for themselves with their brand of vegan, no-makeup makeup that rendered ladylike compacts “old-fashioned” the second their line of Crayola-like sticks hit Space NK in 2014.

Five years later, Nudestix’s best-selling matte lip and cheek pencils are beloved by, who else, mega influencers. And this fall, they’ve collaborated with six leading Youtubers like @ssssamanthaa, @saythelees, @cydbee on an all-star Creator’s palette sure to make it into many a back-to-school makeup kit. Having conquered Teen Vogue and Sephora, their trajectory to fame hasn’t been all easy breezy. Find out how the Nudestix girls overcame a major hurdle upon launching the brand in China, and discover where the Frankels are headed after they reach the end of the nude rainbow. Exciting news, in this episode!
