In March 2019, Glossier was valued at $1.2bn, turning Weiss into one of the rare female founders and CEOs of a unicorn company. Facebook Twitter Pinterest ‘We think about hospitality rather than traditional sales’: customers trying on makeup crowd a Glossier pop-up. She points out that there are still only 36 Glossier products. I wonder how much the $1.2bn valuation of Glossier, which now employs 200 people, changed things for Weiss. I don’t think beauty is something anyone should feel ashamed about appreciating or acknowledging or demonstrating or embodying, and it has very little to do with looks at all.
