17 - Interview with Yolanda Williams Owner of Cream Blends

Your Best Hair Day Ever Podcast

Yolanda and her husband runs the creative agency Distinct Life, whose work ranges from consulting and social media management for the social services agency Wolverine Human Services in Detroit to consulting for Comedy Central's show "Detroiters" — they designed the show's logo and produced and wrote the theme song. Their creative partnership started in 2004 when the couple got married while still attending college at Oakland University. In 2007, her husband, Rick took over ownership of Burn Rubber sneaker store in Royal Oak and built the brand into an international phenomenon through his collaborations with New Balance and Reebok. In 2013 Cream Blends started out of Yolanda’s sheer curiosity of natural products and how they affect the skin. She says, Reading labels is difficult and many of the words we can't even pronounce let alone understand how the chemical composition will affect our bodies in the future. At Cream Blends they want to maintain the integrity of their brand by providing products with simple ingredients from the Earth that do complex things for the body. The skin is the largest organ in our bodies and the first thing that people see, we should guard that and make sure we are always using products that help heal, restore and nourish our skin. www.creamblends.com
