Il-Makiage

This brand has a lot of promise in the cosmetics industry, if lead by competent executive team.  However, that isn't whats taking place.  The VP of North America, along with the Sales Director are always in-store providing updated protocols from day to day.  There isn't any consistency.  They try one thing one day and if they don't see an immediate return of positivity, it changes the following day.  Two store managers quit in less than a month.  The sales of the brand, in-store and online, are suffering greatly from lack of retail cosmetics experience in the executive team.  The marketing strategy is targeting younger millennials, and comes across as 'mean girl' and tacky.  If seeking cosmetic retail employment at the management level, executive level or artist level, seek it elsewhere.

Sometimes companies do an amazing job selling themselves but then you join and discover there are a million problems and the trajectory is not as rosy as it seemed from the outside. IL MAKIAGE is the opposite. Since joining, I've only become more excited. The company is committed to delivering an amazing experience to consumers and is moving fast to not just plan but to do a lot of amazing things. The senior team has a really strong vision, and they engage the rest of the company in making it happen. I feel like my ideas and work are valued here and are making a difference in creating a makeup brand totally unlike anything else out there.

Coming from a very corporate environment, IL MAKIAGE has exceeded my expectations. The office is fast-paced, passionate, and exciting. You have the ability to wear many hats, working across projects that interest you. The people are inspiring, smart, and genuinely care about the company, I'm glad that I joined in such an early stage to be a part of such an exciting and fast-growing company – If you’re looking for …

a typical day at work at Ilmakiage is to be in contact with over 50 employees  and manage them to reach high goals in the company with help and explanation to reach the sales targets.
to by in touch all day by phone or with them on the sales floor at the stores.
the most enjoyable part of the job is to spending time with people, i have excellent management skills.

I've worked at several companies, and have never met a more engaged and caring leadership team. They genuinely care about their employees and treat everyone with respect. Plus, when stressful moments arise, management is always cool and calm under pressure. Super great location in Soho. And even though I don't wear it personally (as a guy), my female friends love the makeup!

I had missing hours on my paycheck for months. 
I had little work/ life balance 
Meeting new people was fun
I also liked doing makeup so that was enjoyable

If you want to get yelled at and publicly humiliated for minor mistakes (or just a bad day for the boss), it’s the place for you. Otherwise, avoid it.
