May 05, 2021 Co-Founders Nadine Abramcyk, Jaclyn Ferber, and Adair Ilyinsky of tenoverten, have created an innovative non-toxic nail polish formula that is long-lasting and promotes stronger, healthier nails. We chatted with the trio about what it took to make this product and how they worked together to make their business successful. 

December 29, 2020 When I joined Thinx, the company was in the midst of a PR storm around its founder. One of the board members at the time told me that the board didn’t think I could do the job because I had a 6 month old baby, and they gave me a comp package that was way under market. Most sane people would have run for the hills, but I just believed so much in the product, the unit economics were fantastic and I really loved the small, passionate team. I knew it had all the ingredients for success, and I felt like I could add a lot of value and prove to the board that their reservations were unfounded. Clearly that has been the case!

May 20, 2020 With Love Wellness, it’s important for me to remove the stigma around women’s health. What I often see is that women are too embarrassed by their bodies, and therefore, it prevents them from taking proper care. Education is at the root of what we do, and through education we simplify a lot of topics that have long been considered taboo.

March 25, 2020 I’m so proud of our support of female artists. We celebrate their work, give them a platform to be discovered and featured, and they get a percentage of each JIGGY sale. Also, watching people reconnect with the joy of puzzling and spend some time away from phones and screens being creative is really exciting to us.

March 10, 2020 I had the idea for the Essential 8 Makeup Routine about 10 years before we launched. As a beauty industry professional, I was baffled by the lack of simplicity and organization other brands offered. I always wanted makeup that was made with high-performing formulas, and was also easy to carry in your bag and apply without a mess. In 2015, I met my business partner Jack and discovered we both shared a love for the pencil as a delivery system. Jack had the brilliant idea of our unique trèStiQue crayon, so we created a whole line of sticks/pencils with built-in tools that when used together provided a solution for the everyday makeup routine.
