When Kourtney Leigh had an opportunity to start TINGE, she knew she had to jump on it. Why did she decide to blaze this trail? According to Kourtney, she shares, “I created TINGE because I knew there needed to be something more for body— from body makeup and beyond. I also felt a deep conviction to rewrite the rules of beauty through our brand voice by avoiding language that implies you should look any different than the way you feel most beautiful or confident.”

As you’ll hear from our visit, her business is changing the language and perspective of the beauty industry. Interestingly, she views makeup as a choice, never a requirement. That’s a bold statement from someone who has a beauty brand! You’ll learn why she feels this way, along with the story behind her product and so much more!
