At Milk Makeup, we're all about cool clean beauty fueled by creativity. Born out of Milk, a creative hub in downtown New York City, innovation, self-expression, and community are at the heart of everything we do. We believe beauty isn't about how you do your makeup, it's what you do in it—and how you Live Your Look—that matters.
Who YOU are:
* Community connector: You're always thinking about how to improve your and your community's future. You're passionate about building a global community where everyone can feel seen and inspired in beauty.
* Courageous but chill: Wherever you come from, you're driven by the hardworking New York spirit that Milk embodies. You're flexible and ready to get the job done, but you're humble and make moves thoughtfully. You strive for quality, have fun doing it, and always have the greater good of the brand in mind.
* Fearlessly innovative: You're not afraid to take calculated risks and enjoy problem solving. You're down to disrupt the status quo and innovate in order to raise the bar. You value a forward-thinking space that encourages you to lead change, never follow.
* Champion of self-expression: You're creative at heart and are always genuinely you. You live your look and want to grow with people who celebrate individuality.
* Inclusive + mindful: You believe an open mind is always the best place to start and value active listening. You embrace differences and help foster a safe working environment for yourself and your peers.
