Ep. 230: Glamazon Beauty Lands On Its Dream Network | HSN - Kim Baker

Friends in Beauty Podcast

On this week’s episode of the Friends in Beauty podcast I welcome Kim Baker to the Friends in Beauty guest chair, for the 2nd time! Kim is a Makeup Artist and Founder of Glamazon Beauty. Her unique background and approach to beauty is what sets her apart from her peers. For 20 years, Kim was in front of the camera, beginning as a size 4 model and then in the early 90s became what was considered one of the pioneers in the plus size industry. During that time, Kim was influenced by some of the best makeup artists in the industry - Fran Cooper, Reggie Wells, Quietfire, Kevyn Aucoin and Paul Star. Her very first makeup artist, at age 13, was the legend Way Bandy.

Kim learned early on the power of great makeup and a great makeup artist; so, when she met a makeup artist who was just starting her own line, and shared her philosophy about makeup, "Don't fall into trends-just play up your best features!" Kim began working for her company. That was 30 years ago, and the makeup artist was Bobbi Brown. It was from her experience there and years in the industry that Kim was able to secure opportunities as a full-time makeup artist.

In 2006, Kim received her big break - working for Hollywood A-Lister Tom Cruise and actor Ving Rahmes for the Mission Impossible movie press junket. And the rest is history...

She joins us this week on the Friends in Beauty to share Glamazon Beauty’s upcoming launch on HSN on August 14th, so mark your calendars and enjoy this episode!!
