Whether it’s the satin pillowcase, minimalist scrunchies or the viral, XL heatless rollers, there’s a good chance that you have a Kitsch favourite in your beauty routine already.

Tune in to learn about: ✨How Cassandra created a multi-million dollar brand on optimism – without an MBA ✨What happens when you’re not a forward-facing founder (shy types, listen up!) ✨What it takes to earn “Woman-Owned” Certification ✨Why her new, filtered shower head is totally different from ones you’ve seen in the past (and how it can benefit your hair and skin!) ✨What is the Kitsch Beach House and can anyone rent it??!
