In Conversation With

Tisha Thompson, Episode 09

This week’s “In Conversation With” features Tisha Thompson, Founder + CEO of LYS Beauty. With 18 years under her belt as a clean beauty industry veteran, it’s no surprise her skin care-oriented makeup line is the talk of 2021. Tisha’s story has been featured by Good Morning America, Marie Claire, and Business of Fashion.

"Makeup is an enhancement...it’s something we choose to wear when we want to wear it. Not that we have to wear it, and we don’t have confidence if we don’t have it on.”

Tisha sat down with our founder, Janice Buu to discuss the inspiration behind LYS Beauty, the importance of mental health awareness, and what "clean beauty" means in cosmetics. Having launched the first Black-owned clean makeup brand at Sephora, Tisha also shares her expert tips on creating a beauty line that’s transparent, affordable, and meant for everyone. Both beauty founders share their thoughts on breaking out of their comfort zones to entrepreneurship.
