The Be Bonita Podcast Viviane Aires

The beauty industry has seen a rise in vegan-friendly beauty products, which is great news for those who want to look their best while avoiding animal-derived ingredients in their makeup. The makeup landscape is becoming more sustainable and vegan, appealing to customers who care about animal welfare, the environment, and personal well-being.

Several well-known makeup artists have launched their own vegan makeup lines, including Ashunta Sheriff, who is dedicated to revolutionizing the industry with cruelty-free products. I recently had the privilege of interviewing Ashunta Sheriff on our podcast, The Be Bonita, where we discussed her new vegan makeup line and her creative process when working with celebrities like Taraji P. Henson. Join us as we explore the world of cruelty-free beauty and dive into this fascinating conversation!

In this Episode, we discuss:

- Ashunta’s makeup line - easy to use, clean, eco-friendly, fun, creative

- What the creative process looks like for a makeup artist creating a makeup brand

- What does this role as a makeup artist mean for her

I hope you enjoy is as much as I did. You can find Ashunta Beauty Makeup: https://ashuntabeauty.com
