We had the good fortune of connecting with Leticia Mordi and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Leticia, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I truly desired for everyone to be able to create a full look with my products. Sometimes we fall in love with gorgeous products that sometimes need to be accompanied with many other different products which can be overwhelming. No matter where you are or what you are doing I wanted to make it easy to create many different looks with very little products.

Please tell us more about your work. We’d love to hear what sets you apart from others, what you are most proud of or excited about. How did you get to where you are today professionally. Was it easy? If not, how did you overcome the challenges? What are the lessons you’ve learned along the way. What do you want the world to know about you or your brand and story?
I have been a professional makeup artist for the past 11 years. I started off watching videos of women doing makeup and I got stuck. I couldn’t stop watching them and I got inspired. Like many, I then worked at a makeup counter at a department store for a few years which taught me a lot about customer service and personalizing experiences for my clients. I was then able to take those skills and apply them when challenges arose. I want people to know that I am woman who is always learning and eager to offer the best version of me as a makeup artist and and as a brand.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I love experiences and so I am always ready to create them. I am a huge fragrance head and have over 40 bottles of perfume. Everyone likes to smell good so I would first start off with taking them to create a customized fragrance. Next, we would grab a bite to eat. Food always brings people together. Lastly I would end the night with a movie and a bunch of snacks.

 

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I believe that someone’s success and progress is attributed to many different people and factors, however being 100% honest Nema Beauty Cosmetics was a complete collaboration with the Holy spirit. From the very beginning of my journey I consulted God about everything. My name, the mission, the logo and the products, it was all lead by the Holy spirit. It was the best decision I made to include Christ into my business because it opened my eyes to see beyond what I would normally comprehend. He deserves all the credit because he is who brought me success.
