EP 86: Nicole Trunfio | The Supermodel On Problem-Solving And Her Commitment To Environmentalism

In this episode of Gritty Pretty Radio, Eleanor Pendleton (founder & editor-in-chief) and Rose Garnett (beauty editor) sit down with model and businesswoman, motherhood muse and passionate environmental activist, Nicole Trunfio. After taking out the title of Supermodel of Australia in 2002, this Western Australian-native found herself in New York at the ripe age of 16 and has since graced the international covers of Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar and Elle.  Today much of Trunfio’s focus is on her three businesses (ERTH, Trunfio Universe and Bumpsuit) alongside her newfound alignment with natural skincare and makeup brand, Inika Organic. A brand that is making serious headway when it comes to sustainability, the alignment is a natural progression for the supermodel. From her foolproof business ethos to the new business she has in the works, her commitment to being an environmentalist and, of course, the beauty products that give her that supermodel glow, Trunfio spilled all her secrets during this chat.   PRODUCTS MENTIONED: INIKA Organic Baked Mineral Bronzer Sunbeam, $69 [https://www.inikaorganic.com/products/baked-mineral-bronzer-8g?variant=40167994884140] Tom Ford Shade and Illuminate Cream Face Palette, $89 [https://www.sephora.com/product/shade-illuminate-P422574?skuId=2183721&icid2=products%20grid:p422574:product] INIKA Organic Long Lash Mascara, $49 [https://www.inikaorganic.com/products/long-lash-vegan-mascara-8ml] INIKA Organic Brow Palette, $69 [https://www.inikaorganic.com/products/natural-brow-define-palette-8g] Anastasia Beverly Hills Clear Brow Gel, $39 [https://www.sephora.com.au/products/anastasia-brow-gel-clear/v/full-size] INIKA Organic Liquid Eyeliner Black, $45 [https://www.inikaorganic.com/products/organic-liquid-eyeliner-black-4ml] INIKA Organic Lipstick Spring Bloom, $42 [https://www.inikaorganic.com/products/organic-vegan-lipstick-4-2g?variant=40168021590060] Rose Inc Softlight Luminous Hydrating Concealer, $45 [https://www.mecca.com.au/rose-inc/softlight-luminous-hydrating-concealer/V-052696.html] INIKA Organic Phyto-Active Face Oil, $79 [https://www.inikaorganic.com/products/phyto-active-botanical-face-oil-30ml] We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we live, work and record this podcast on, and we pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging. We extend that respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples listening today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
