Stacey Roney is the girl to know. After spending five minutes with her you’ll realize if you want to feel hip, look amazing and be a part of everything that is going on in and around the city, you need to add Stacey to your rolodex. Stacey broke away from the typical corporate day when she began Beauty on Call, a freelance company offering on-location beauty & spa services. Beauty on Call is every girl’s dream source to magnificent make-up, spa parties and seminars.
Once you’re beautified, it’s time to make use of lookin’ good! Stacey developed Glossed & Found as a beauty, fashion and lifestyle blog {and vlog} that can’t be missed! Glossed & Found offers insight into spectacular events, exclusive celebrity interviews and spotlights on emerging Chicago designers. The Glossed & Found weekly e-newsletter is one of our favorites!
Let’s learn more about Stacey, founder of these two amazing companies…
People may be surprised to know…
Although I am considered a beauty expert in the industry, I am the worst makeup artist! I am great at finding and managing top artists and have extensive product knowledge, but you don’t want me doing your makeup!
What or who inspired you to start your business?
I was previously a cosmetic buyer for Nordstrom and saw a void in the industry, so I started the first staffing agency in the country focused on beauty.
What business mistake have you made that you will not repeat?
Trying to do everything myself! I’ve since hired amazing people who help handle the day to day responsiblities so that I can focus on the bigger picture.
What is your indulgence?
Taking a nap. With 3 kids under 3, it doesn’t happen very often. Come to think of it, it never happens!
We are excited to announce Beauty on Call and Glossed & Found are partnering with CRAVE on our Beauty & Wellness event in April 2010!
One Response to “Beauty on Call and Glossed & Found: Interview with Stacey”
I was married back in 2005 and my maid of honor came across Beauty on Call. They offerred the greatest service as my makeup artist and hair stylist came to the hotel room the morning of my wedding. This convenience made the start of our day run very smoothly. The women from Beauty on Call did such a fantastic job, worked quickly and helped make everyone look beautiful for my special day!
