Introducing Lust Minerals, Australia’s favourite clean beauty brand founded in 2014 by mum of two, Stacey Hollands.

Lust Minerals was founded with a vision to prove that mineral makeup has high-performance power to change your skin, your life and leave the planet a better place.

Stacey Hollands founded Lust Minerals in 2014, inspired to educate and provide clean beauty products to women worldwide after watching her father lose his battle with cancer.

Stacey made it her mission to provide women with an alternative to synthetic and harmful chemical based beauty products that were available in groceries, pharmacies and beauty outlets worldwide.

“After losing my Dad to cancer at a young age, it really made me realise we don’t get a second chance and that chemicals can lead to so many health issues,” explains Hollands.

While there were plenty of natural based products out there, few married “clean” and “high-performance” to deliver real results for women. Stacey was inspired to bring a cleaner alternative to Australian women, minimising the chemicals put onto the skin and into our bodies.

After years of hard work, research, and development, Stacey went on to create global beauty brand, Lust Minerals by the time she was 25. Lust Minerals is Australia’s first all-natural mineral beauty brand that fuses clean beauty with performance and affordability.Stacey added, “I was inspired to create an Australian clean beauty range that is both affordable and high quality. It was important that I created a range that offers real results, superior performance and is cleaner and better for our health.”

Before long, Stacey had built a growing empire with 10+ employees, including Stacey’s husband (and biggest supporter from day one), James. With more than 487% growth in just one year, Lust Minerals is proof that an unwavering commitment to your vision and a passion for the industry pays off.

Sadly, Stacey’s father passed away shortly before the launch, but Stacey hopes that Lust Minerals will give him something to be proud of. Today, Lust Minerals is passionate about changing people’s lives all around the world, empowering women to control what they put on their skin and into their bodies.

Global businesses overlook critical network connectivity amid rising AI investments, prompting calls for reassessment of digital infrastructure needs.

In Short:
– Global expansion is crucial, but AI investments often neglect essential network connectivity.
– Most leaders seek growth in new markets, yet secure infrastructure support is widely overlooked.

Expanding globally is increasingly vital for businesses. However, growing investments in AI are leading leaders to overlook seamless connectivity across borders. Tim Sullivan from Coevolve highlighted the importance of global connectivity in a recent discussion. Operating in 82 countries, Coevolve offers insight into the current challenges leaders face.

New complexities in security and compliance are increasing. Although significant investment is directed towards AI, the network infrastructure to support it is being neglected. Research reveals 45% of investment targets AI, yet only about 8% is allocated for secure network architecture. There is a notable discrepancy regarding how global connectivity is achieved across different regions.
