Manage episode 407448502 series 3560341
We are so excited to have Irene Dele-Adejumo, CEO of Omolewa Cosmetics and Chef Fruit Officer at Fruit Art USA on the MRS Podcast | Multiple Revenue Streams. When Irene sets her mind to something - she takes ACTION! We have the privilege to hear from Irene as we learn how Irene started her international cosmetics company while building her Fruit Art USA business.
Irene is an award-winning, multi-faceted beauty entrepreneur, fruit carving expert, professional private chef, wife, and mom of three young children. She has a degree in Political Science and Sociology from the College of William and Mary in Virginia.
While working as a makeup artist, Irene uncovered the challenge of finding eyeshadows and lip colors that popped on the skin of women of color. It was even harder to find foundation shades that perfectly matched their skin tone without giving an ashy look or a heavy and cakey feel. Irene created an inclusive makeup line - Omolewa Cosmetics (Made in USA, Cruelty-Free, and Non-Toxic, Paraben Free, Sulfate Free, and Vegan Friendly) - a bold, luscious, elegant palette of color cosmetics that can be used daily, on special occasions, and on-the-go.
Irene Dele has been featured in numerous media outlets, including The Food Network, Forbes, Allure Magazine, ELLE, Yahoo Finance, BYRDIE, Black Enterprise, NBC4, Fox 45, ABC/WJLA, News Channel 8, CNBC/WUSA9, The Cooking Channel, Bella Naija, Cosmetics Business News, Voice of America, RACKED, BUSTLE, Global Cosmetics News, GLAM AFRICA, City People Magazine, Ghana Web, and many others.
Omolewa means "Beautiful Child" in the Yoruba language, and is Irene's middle name given to her by her father. Today, she is an international Woman of Beauty and shares her name with women worldwide who are Omolewa (beautiful) inside and out.
Being a positive influencer for women worldwide was Irene's top goal, and she is well on her way to achieving it.
