Lisa Guerrera, is the founder of Experiment Beauty and all-around delight to chat with, and she came equipped to Adgile Media Group's podcast Driving Performance with all the lessons for her fellow founders.
Lisa traces a childhood love of chemistry into a beauty brand built on proof, not hype. From the jump, Lisa made one thing clear: her brand wasn’t built on trends, vibes, or fear-based marketing. It was built on evidence.
Lisa describes how Experiment Beauty became the brand for people looking for both science and aesthetics. Smart and hot branding is the name of the game. a game.
One of the most surprising parts of Lisa’s story is what she didn’t rush into. Early retailer interest came fast — yes, even Sephora-level fast — but instead of sprinting, she paused. That pause changed everything. It sharpened her pitch, refined her positioning, and surfaced her “aha” insight: lead with what works, then package it beautifully. That clarity unlocked the next wave of growth.
Creators began showing genuine, unprompted love for the products, which sparked organic explosions in Amazon and Google searches. Lisa doesn’t believe in fear-mongering or trend-chasing, either. As beauty’s self-appointed “Chemistry Advocate,” she’s on a mission to dismantle the idea that “chemistry equals danger” — and to educate consumers instead of scaring them. Her philosophy is simple: why choose between science and fun when you can have both? The result is a brand that scaled not through hype, but through message discipline, community ignition, and patient sequencing — proving that sometimes the slow path is the most powerful one.
