Hi guys, welcome back to Skincare Anarchy. This is your host, Ekta. And I am super excited

about today's guest because this is one of my favorite makeup lines, if not the favorite.

So without further ado, I want to introduce you guys to Diana Ruth, who is the co-founder

for Milk Makeup. Welcome Diana. I'm so excited to be here. Thank you so much for having

me. I'm so excited. Oh, it's truly my honor and I can't wait to learn everything about

the brand, but I really want to start off with your journey in beauty and just how you came

to this the whole process. Sure. So I always love products since I remember, I think my

earliest memory is age seven and my dream was to be a manicurist because I just wanted the

cart with all the stuff on it. Like I just wanted that cart with the polish and the puffs and all

the stuff. And so I always love products. I never knew that as a kid though, I never knew this was

a job. You know, I didn't even that wasn't in my kind of world. So I really would say I found

cosmetics as a industry in college. So I went to FIT. I was studying fashion merchandise management

as my associate's degree and fashion just wasn't for me. What I realized at that moment is I

loved the behind the scenes. I loved the manufacturing, the logistics, the warehouse. Like all of those

parts of fashion was what excited me. So it wasn't the clothing. I'm not like a fashion

you know person. So, but I like the kind of nitty-gritty behind the scenes. And then I learned about

there was a major at FIT called cosmetics and fragrance. It was formulations and marketing.

That was a title at the time. And it was I was like the second class that ever existed

at FIT. So I applied to be in that program. And that's really where I really would say I fell in love

with beauty cosmetics. That major was formulations, packaging, displays, marketing like every aspect

of this industry in a college program. And it was just it was amazing. It was a very small class.

It was 13 girls. All girls. All girls at the time. We were the second class. And it was amazing.
