She launched her company in 2011 with the goal of making a vegan, cruelty-free beauty brand catering to women of color.[1]

Personal life

Nicole was born Шаблон:Circa[2] and raised in South Bend, Indiana. She became pregnant with her daughter, Jasmyn, at the age of 16, and became a nurse after graduating from college.[2][3] In 2012, Nicole was diagnosed with breast cancer. This influenced her decision to focus on creating cruelty-free, nontoxic beauty products.[2] She underwent a double mastectomy in 2014 when the cancer returned.[3]

Career

Nicole began developing beauty products while she worked as a nurse and officially launched her company, Beauty Bakerie, in 2011.[3]

As of 2017, Beauty Bakerie products are sold in over 120 countries and over 2000 stores.

Beauty Bakerie has been worn and endorsed by Tati Westbrook, Jackie Aina and Nikkie Tutorials. In 2014, Nicole's story was featured on Beyoncé's website, Beyonce.com, as part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.[4][5] The firm is based in San Diego and promoted by Gabby Douglas.[1] In October 2017, Unilever Ventures invested in the brand along with high-powered African-American executives including Ken Chennault, former CEO of American Express and Rich Dennis of New Voices Fund. This initial investment made Nicole the 14th black woman to receive over $1M in funding. By 2022, the founder had successfully raised over $14M.
