The Pretty Equity Interview Series

An ongoing series of in-depth conversations with cosmetic chemists, regulatory experts, contract manufacturers, and industry operators—the people who understand how beauty businesses actually work and where they actually break.

Each episode surfaces insider knowledge that rarely makes it into pitch decks: how formulas are built, where testing goes wrong, what compliance gaps look like from the inside, and what separates brands that scale from those that stall.

For investors, it's an efficient way to build working knowledge of beauty's operational realities—before and alongside the diligence process.

For founders, it's the conversation that usually only happens behind closed doors.

Episodes are also available as written interviews on Substack —for those who prefer to read rather than watch or listen.
