Ruby Hammer | "Go Back Home Where You Consider Home"

Ruby Hammer MBE is a trailblazing makeup artist and beauty entrepreneur whose career spans over 40 years of redefining beauty standards. Best known for co-founding the iconic Ruby & Millie beauty line in the late 90s, she was one of the first to champion inclusivity and diversity in an industry that, at the time, overlooked many. Ruby has worked with world-famous supermodels like Cindy Crawford and Naomi Campbell, and her expert touch has graced the pages of top fashion magazines. 🌟   As a British Bangladeshi, Ruby’s journey into the beauty world has been shaped by her identity, allowing her to break barriers while promoting beauty for everyone—regardless of race, gender, or age. Today, her own brand, Ruby Hammer Beauty, continues that mission with products designed to simplify beauty routines and celebrate natural beauty.   On the "Too British ToBe Asian" podcast, we dig into Ruby’s rich, multicultural background and how it has informed her life and career. From navigating the complexities of growing up between multiple cultures to becoming an outspoken advocate for diversity in beauty, Ruby opens up about the challenges and triumphs that have defined her career. This is where we explore what it means to embrace multiple identities—leaning into British culture while honouring our roots.   If you're passionate about beauty, culture, and identity, this conversation will leave you inspired.
