What an extremely articulate woman, just the way she carries herself exudes confidence and passion for her business. Well done

[Kayseason]

Finally someone who actually goes into detail on how she started her business. Love her more for this 💗💗

It’s so refreshing to see a true professional and educated entrepreneur and not just a marketing phenomenon with a large IG following

[emileeida]

BYE KARDASHIANS! This is a businesswoman girls should be looking up to. No billionaire family background, a university degree and worked her way up clearly. You go Huda!

This is the CORRECT answer to the question "What advice would you give women in business? "

[Taisha_]

All of that with $6000 in initial investment? That is beyond impressive. It's also great to hear that it took them a few years to actually make decent profit, because too many people will have you believe it's big bucks right out the door.

[raastaroko]

The way she holds her self and articulates her words played a MASSIVE part in why Huda Beauty took off. When doing business you NEED to be well articulated. People won’t buy what you sell if you can’t explain it properly. She’s also very smart. Triple threat = perfect business person

[victoriar]

Why is no one talking about book called “The Art of Seductive Power by Juliet Arden”? Just look at that energy, it's exactly what Huda embodies!

[vypham]

She’s so well-spoken and humble at the same time. An inspiration.

[MadAboutRAE]

She has a likeable personality and was able to network and make celebrity friends fresh out of beauty school who then landed her the initial Sephora deal. Networking and who you know is key 🔑

[EssyaMTR]

Now, that's a founder... You can see her passion not only for the makeup side but for the operational side too to be able to deliver the best to her customers.

I have zero knowledge about companies or business but yet I UNDERSTAND every single word that she said!!! Super articulate and smart huda love herrrr

[DOLLSILOVE]

I like how she is not only sharing all the details but also explaining everything at the same time 💗

[chinedumudeagbala]

Boss moves: you can tell she is ingrained in every detail of the business ! Loved how she explained everything in detail - well done Huda and keep soaring .

[palamoi]

This woman is confident, intelligent, articulate and business savvy. She really lays out the finite points about starting and growing your own business. I'd be interested in how they come up with the formulas for their products.

[alexpatrier]

I met this woman at an event in Dubai in 2015. She was really kind and we took a pic together. It was the begging of her projects. Her story is very inspiring!!

After YEARS of hearing responses to “What advice would you give a small business owner?” This was such a breath of fresh air. Instead of hearing “keep at it. Don’t give up. Ppl will say you can’t do it- prove them wrong” 🙄

[camilogomezkeep]

The way she expresses herself, you can tell she truly knows her craft… unlike other beauty brands owned by famous people.

[oseki]

She’s a businesswoman who’s really in control of her business/brand/career. Amazing!

[dearNAiMA]

I love Huda, along with her products. I’ve been following her journey of being more of a brand for years and she has definitely put a lot of effort into her business! ♥️✨
