About Kim Baker, Founder and CEO of Glamazon Beauty

Kim Baker is a New York-based commercial makeup artist and former Wilhelmina model who specializes in working with celebrities and models, and her unique background and approach to beauty is what sets her apart from her peers. For 20 years Baker was in front of the camera, beginning as a size-four model, and then in the early '90s she became a pioneer in the plus-sized industry. During that time, Baker was influenced by some of the best makeup artists in the industry, including Fran Cooper, Reggie Wells, Quietfire, Kevyn Aucoin and Paul Star.

Her very first makeup artist, at age 13, was the legendary Way Bandy. Baker learned early on the power of great makeup and a great makeup artist; when she met a makeup artist who was just starting her own line who shared her philosophy about makeup—"Don't fall into trends-just play up your best features!"—Baker began working for her company. That was 30 years ago, and that makeup artist was Bobbi Brown.

It was from her experience there and years in the industry that Baker was able to secure opportunities as a full-time makeup artist, and in 2006, she received her big break working for actors Tom Cruise and Ving Rhames for the Mission Impossible press junket. And the rest is history! Baker has worked with everyone from NASCAR driver Danica Patrick, musicians Toni Braxton and John Legend, actress Dakota Fanning and radio personality Angela Yee, to name a few, as well as countless TV shows including America's Next Top Model.

Today, Kim Baker has turned her passion for beauty into working with everyday women and has created a cosmetics line to enhance that special something she believes everyone has that makes them beautiful—her favourite feature, their personality!

About Glamazon Beauty:

Glamazon Beauty is a skin-conscious cosmetics brand founded by celebrity makeup artist Kim Baker. As a former model, Baker often arrived on set with her makeup already done, frustrated by the lack of suitable products for her skin tone. As a dark-skinned Afro-Latina woman, she understood the challenges many women of colour face in finding makeup that truly complements their unique beauty. This inspired her to create Glamazon Beauty, where the focus is on developing products that cater to all women, with women of colour at the forefront.

Baker's deep appreciation for the beauty in diversity drives the Glamazon's commitment to inclusivity in every product it offers. Its mission is to empower every consumer to embrace their authentic selves, much like an alter ego. Glamazon provides a comprehensive selection of complexion products in 12 mixable shades that cater to 144 shades of skin tone, to help ensure that every woman finds her perfect match.
