Same Work, Different Coloring Book ft. Desiree Rogers of Fashion Fair

Before there were DE&I initiatives, shade range expansions, and the branding of “Black-owned” beauty, there was Fashion Fair Cosmetics. Launched back in 1973 by Ebony Magazine’s Eunice Johnson, Fashion Fair has always been created by and made for Black women. And after co-owners Desiree Rogers and Cheryl Mayberry McKissack purchased the brand in 2017, the brand’s revival has been nothing short of extraordinary. Tune in as I sit down with Desiree to discuss her experience re-launching Fashion Fair and creating equity within the Black community, her personal relationship with beauty and style, and her vast career journey from Obama’s White House to the cosmetics industry.
