As a makeup artist, Rose-Marie’s 40-year career was long-admired for the glowing, naturally radiant makeup looks she created on some of the world’s most visible faces (Gisele Bundchen, Zoe Saldana, Miranda Kerr and Tilda Swinton to name a few). Her work has been featured in countless magazine covers, featured editorials, and brand campaigns. As a beauty brand founder, she’s more than a pioneer, she’s a future-thinking trailblazer who started RMS Beauty because nothing else like it existed in the industry.

As Rose-Marie herself often says: “someone had to do it.” After building the brand for over a decade, the CEW awarded Rose-Marie their 2020 Female Founder Award, acknowledging her as a beauty leader and inspiration. Today, RMS products are cult-favorites for those in the know, and with countless beauty awards, thousands of five- star customer reviews, millions of social media shoutouts (yes, even on TikTok), the once under-the-radar beauty brand—and Rose-Marie herself—is getting a new burst of well-earned recognition.
