Loren Ridinger Talks Business, Beauty And The Key To Success in AvantBelle.com

August 14th // Comment Here

I wanted to share the interview that I recently did with avantbelle.com. I think you all will enjoy the Q&A session and hope that you are inspired by it. “You become what you think about all the time.” One of my favorite quotes ever! To read the entire interview click here.

loren ridinger talks business on avantbelle.com

AB: What are some of the issues or challenges you’ve gone through building your multiple businesses? 

LR:  Time management is critical and also a challenge. You have to prioritize on what is most important first and sometimes everything is a priority. I don’t think 24hrs is enough time to do everything I want to accomplish in one day. Luckily I have an amazing group of people around me that makes it easier for me to juggle.

AB:What do you personally think are the keys to success?

LR: Some key elements to success are: having a great team, determination, focus, drive, setting goals, organization, passion, belief and setting deadlines.

AB: You must be such a busy woman! what do you do in your free time?

LR:  What free time :) Although, whenever I do get free time, if I get any, I like to do nothing watch movies with my family and daughter and not leave the couch.

Loren Ridinger quoted in Happi Magazine on Fall beauty trends

August 12th // 1 Comment

Happi Magazine is a beauty industry bible and it’s an honor to be quoted in their August issue on fall color trends!

Loren Ridinger, senior vice president of Market America, Greensboro, NC, contends that this season, select color combinations rules the roost. “On the runways, it’s about contrast; pairing neutrals with bolds. On one hand, bold smoky eyes are complemented with nude or coral lips, accentuating the eyes. On the other hand, soft, healthy natural skin paired with bright lips in orange or wine/berry colors are truly making a lasting impression. Orange was big this summer, and is carrying over into fall and winter – but it’s more of a burnt orange, instead of bright orange,” she said.
