counter-intuitive: The Beauty Brand Playbook

Counter-Intuitive is where brand strategy meets real life: the operations, the hard calls, and the creative systems behind beauty brands that actually work.

Here you’ll find what no one tells you: how to lead your brand instead of chasing it, why pretty alone won’t save you, and what happens between the mood board and the shelf.

It’s for beauty and wellness founders who want to build something that lasts. Subscribe for essays, behind-the-scenes breakdowns, and a smarter way to scale.
