Show Notes
Michelle Phan wears many hats. Or more perhaps more aptly; lipstick hues.
YouTube pioneer, mega brand boardroom heavyweight, company founder, creative director, global beauty queen.
Phan has makeup tricks that will make your eyes pop. But the numbers behind her success could make them water. Approaching 8 million YouTube followers, 1.1 billion video views, and over 1 million subscribers to her online beauty community and sampling service, ipsy.
Not bad for a 28-year-old who started touting the perfect pout online as a hobby during university.
But don’t be mistaken, Phan’s success is not a story of luck but one of awesome internet savvy, authenticity and getting there first to opportunity.
