Maurice Rasgon talks
about Cosmetic
Design Group, its
Stýli-Style brand,
color cosmetics and
nail enamel.
IN HIS ROLE AS PRESIDENT OF COSMETIC
Design Group (cosmeticdesigngroup.com) in Culver
City, California, Maurice Rasgon sees the world in
color. Though much of his business is focused on
private-label supply and design, he also juggles
brand acquisition, including most recently, StýliStyle Cosmetics (styli-style.com), all while ensuring
excellence in execution. Only a few years ago he
was running a four-person operation, and now he
counts 13 employees on his team. "Today, we design
and supply more than 40 million pieces of product—
of which about 20 million pieces are nail enamel,"
Rasgon explains. "We fill, design, inventory and
supply all sorts of color cosmetics—anything with
color, from eye shadow to mascara to blush to
bronzers, you name it!"
