Founded in
2017

Building retail partnerships for beauty brands since day one

Built by someone who's been on both sides of the table

Beauty Bulb was founded in 2017 by Faye Speedie — former Global Sales Director at Tangle Teezer, with previous roles at QVC and Blue Gem Private Equity.

After seven years negotiating retail deals for one of the world’s fastest-growing beauty brands, Faye saw the same challenge everywhere: brilliant brands without the connections, strategy, or access to reach the right buyers.

Not because the products weren’t good enough. Because the traditional routes — commission-heavy agents, costly tradeshows, cold outreach — weren’t built for modern beauty brands.

Beauty Bulb changes that. We’ve since helped 850+ brands grow across every major sales channel in the global beauty industry, opening hundreds of new markets and building thousands of lasting retail partnerships.


A team of trusted industry insiders

Every person on this team has worked inside the beauty industry. They know what retailers want, how deals get done, and how to build partnerships that last.
