Who we are

At The Cosmo Corner, we are yappers. We love to educate and share our stories while diving into the current beauty industry.

Our vision

Our vision is to be in community with people of all race, religion, gender and sexual orientation to share our love of beauty. We want this corner to be inclusive and prove to those who care and create, that beauty is truly more than the eyes of the beholder. It is a way to express who we are and where we are going. We invite you to follow us on this journey of self expression.

Our commitment

We swear to spew love and positivity into a world where beauty can be taken in a negative direction. We promise to do better in educating those both in and out of the industry, so open and honest conversations can start happening. We promise to ask the hard questions and never settle for the easy answer.
