59 Gail Sagel – CEO and Founder of Faces Beautiful

Lori Crete|

Today, I’m introducing author, entrepreneur, CEO and cosmetic line founder – Gail Sagel. Gail started her career working on Wall Street, but then decided to follow her passion and become a makeup artist and start her own beauty line. Her health-conscious and innovative nature encouraged her to create a product addressing convenience and health for busy women. I’m so excited to share this story with you.

I was going to put The Beauty Biz Show on hiatus for the summer months because my schedule is crazy busy planning The Beauty Biz Workshop (October 1st and 2nd) and juggling my spa schedule, but I really wanted to share this conversation with you before the IBS (International Beauty Show) trade show in Vegas. If you will be in Vegas this weekend, make sure to visit Gail at booth 1580 – I hope to see you there too!

    3. Be forgiving to yourself for the mistakes you make along the way

You need to make a long list of the pros and cons and your passions, and what you like, and what your seeking, and what you desire – and then you’ll begin to figure out what you want to do.” – Gail Sagel
