I had such an inspiring conversation with Lorraine Corcoran, Founder & CEO of Nyrah Beauty. Her journey into skincare was deeply personal, sparked by her own search for products that truly worked for her sensitive skin.
What began as frustration turned into a passion for formulating clean, effective solutions that honor both the science of skincare and the integrity of natural ingredients. Lorraine’s story is a reminder that sometimes the best brands are born from solving problems for ourselves first.
What stood out to me was Lorraine’s intentionality, whether it’s choosing every ingredient with care, building a brand rooted in authenticity, or ensuring that Nyrah Beauty empowers people to feel confident in their own skin.
She opens up about the challenges of breaking into the crowded beauty space, the role of education in building trust, and how she stays grounded while scaling a mission-driven brand.
Here are a few highlights from the episode:
* How personal skincare struggles became the foundation for Nyrah Beauty
* The philosophy of combining science with clean, natural ingredients
* The challenges and opportunities of standing out in a saturated beauty market
* Why education and transparency are central to building customer trust
* Lorraine’s vision for the future of Nyrah Beauty
