TOUCH COSMETICS FOUNDER, NANCY RAND

Make Up Artist & Entrepreneur Helps Young Women Build Self Esteem

When I first met Nancy Rand, we instantly hit it off. Partly, because I found out she and I went to the same high school (unbeknownst to both of us) and shared the same work ethic that I believe has been instilled in many of our peers who grew up in our tight-knit community in Brooklyn, New York. Nancy, who previously worked as a marketing executive at Redbook Magazine, completely reinvented her life one day, moving from the Big Apple to Miami where she launched a career as a celebrity make-up artist. With ambition and creativity driving the way, Nancy not only took Miami by storm, but managed to launch her own cosmetics line in the process. Touch Cosmetics, which Nancy created with a team of seasoned beauty experts, has been well-received by the cosmetics industry as well as her celebrity clientele. But for Nancy, who recently became an aunt, being able to pursue her passion has also been about giving back to young girls and women who could benefit from her insight and positive attitude. Every year, Nancy donates her time to Camp Pennbrook, a summer camp for overweight girls where the emphasis is on guiding young women toward a healthy way of eating and exercise as well as building their self esteem. Nancy recently visited the camp, sharing beauty tips and giving heartfelt advice to campers. Her precision and dedication towards her career and helping others has also given her the opportunity to sponsor numerous charity functions such as "The Look For Success", a welfare to work program for women, WIZO - Women International Zionist Organization, JAFCO, helping the homeless and abused children & the Animal Rescue. Congratulations Nancy for being our latest inductee into the Role Mommy Honor Roll! To find out more about Nancy Rand and Touch Cosmetics, click here.
