About This Workshop

A referral program with no strings attached

This workshop has been developed in response to the impact on the cosmetics industry by the 2020 pandemic. After speaking with literally over a hundred makeup artists and other industry experts, we have designed a program that will enable artists to retain and serve their clients while providing income by monetizing client lists.

No one knows what the future holds for our industry, but the sales model will be different and clients may not want to shop in person. Let's move forward and see if we can lead the way. And we are open to discussions on how to adjust. We hope you find value in our program.

An honor graduate of the Fashion Institute of Technology (BS) with an MBA from Pace University, she was the National Sales Manager at Vidal Sassoon Salons for Luminique, a custom blend line for 12 years. When the salons business was sold in 2001, she acquired the makeup line and reorganized it as GIELLA custom blend cosmetics. Three years later, she was given the Innovator of the Year Award by the Independent Cosmetics Manufacturers and Distributors.

While in school, GIELLA worked at Saks Fifth Avenue selling makeup. Then she spent two years working with a chemist developing and refining makeup formulas and creating products. It was this experience that gave her the passion to use only the finest and healthiest ingredients in her makeup and skin care, a passion she still holds. She says once you try the best, you wont bother with the rest. She is committed to using only the absolute best ingredients. and will not use any ingredients not sourced in the US.

Giella has launched her products in Henri Bendel NYC (resident for 14 years), Neiman Marcus stores in Dallas and New York and was a partner with Lincoln automobiles in a promotion of both brands.
