Description

Isamaya Ffrench’s eponymous beauty brand ISAMAYA is very new - two years! But what an impact it’s made. Shocking us with her lipsticks in penis-inspired packaging (a sentence I never thought I would write!) and her Steven Klein campaigns, her brand of cosmetics has landed - as she says  - “exactly where I wanted it to land”. But juggling it alongside her day job - creating campaigns and catwalk looks for some of the most influential global stars in the fashion and music industry, from Balmain, Giambattista Valli, Vivienne Westwood as well as contributing to international magazines like Vogue, Dazed, and Beauty Papers, recently took its toll. When she experienced one too many burnouts, Isamaya finally learnt that she’s the only person who can improve her own life quality. And so that's just what she did. You can find out more about Isamaya Ffrench here: https://britishbeautycouncil.com/advisory-board-announcement/https://isamaya.co.uk/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAuYuvBhApEiwAzq_YiYrJfHNc5Xt1q1Gp6SZIaqymoGvNcyuCiJC2gARBzo5-wGP7WBPJBxoCFPcQAvD_BwEhttps://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/09/style/isamaya-ffrench-beauty.htmlhttps://www.dazeddigital.com/beauty/article/42106/1/isamaya-ffrench-my-life-in-make-upPlease follow or subscribe to Keeping Face wherever you’re listening, and if you enjoy it, please spread the word! Please visit the website https://lapyae.com/ to find out about Keeping Face founder, Kathleen Baird-Murray’s new, special project. For more information about how to sponsor an episode, please contact emily@blanketlondon.comProduced by Parkview Creative.

Forever fascinated by what motivates, shapes and guides the talented, hard-working and driven individuals behind some of our favourite beauty brands, Keeping Face is about the weak spot, the scary moment, the part of the story in each founder’s narrative, where things looked like they might go wrong - badly wrong. How did they get around these moments? How did they turn weakness into opportunity? Did they feel vulnerable? Was it hard to rally and rebound? Who was there to support them through this? What was helpful? As they tell us about that difficult time, Keeping Face will leave the listener feeling inspired, informed and entertained, as we learn how they got around these moments, and learnt from their mistakes or whatever disasters life had thrown at them.At a time when the world is experiencing huge disruption, this endearing and relatable series shows us how fallible we all are as humans, but also how indestructible, resilient and brave we can be too.
