Meet our member: Nic from Disco Dust London
It’s coming up to party season, so we thought there’s no better member to talk to than Nic , founder of Disco Dust London - creators of premium and eco-friendly grade glitter makeup.
INTRODUCE YOURSELF! WHO ARE YOU AND WHICH COMPANY ARE YOU FROM?
Nic, Disco Dust London
INTRODUCE YOUR BRAND IN 3 WORDS?
Eco glitter makeup
AMAZING! HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN IN BUSINESS FOR?
3 years this month!
WHAT DOES YOUR BRAND MEAN/STAND FOR?
Looking after the environment in style and having fun whilst we do it!
WHAT HAVE BEEN YOUR BIGGEST CHALLENGES SO FAR?
The biggest challenge is to manage the workload and prioritise what is best to do first and how to do it.
DESCRIBE A DAY IN THE LIFE OF YOU.
Every day and month is different, on a normal morning I would start with emails, a little bit of shameless Instagram scrolling and a Tumeric latte (if there's time) before heading to the workspace to see what events are happening and what meetings or orders need coordinating.
WHO DO YOU DRAW INSPIRATION FROM?
Isamaya Ffrench, Bea Sweet, Athena Paginton, Guy Common, Grace Maria Ellington, All amazing MUA's who I'd love to work with, some of them I am blessed to have worked with already!
ANY FAVOURITE BRANDS OR SHOPS?
I love my friend lily's jewellery brand @e2Cartel, she collects deadstock vintage pieces from her travels and sells them via Instagram, I also love Depixym cosmetic emulsions if I had to pick a makeup brand the products are all vegan, eco and like paint, so you can use them for anything.
