In this episode of Add To Cart, we checkout Iris Smit, founder and CEO of The Quick Flick, a cosmetics brand selling online and with major retailers such as The Iconic, Priceline and Coles.  An architecture graduate with a fondness for coding websites, Iris created a winged eyeliner stamp to help customers who struggled, like she did, to nail that look and The Quick Flick range has grown to include sunscreen and brow products.  In this chat, Iris tells us all about her experiments with BeReal, what she hates about the beauty industry and how she had the last laugh with some negative publicity.

About your co-host: Iris Smit from The Quick Flick


An architecture graduate by trade, Iris Smit is more than your traditional entrepreneur. Her vision and success is taking the beauty and cosmetics industry by storm with her two rapidly growing brands The Quick Flick and Beauty Fridge.  Her revolutionary vision to redesign the way consumers applied winged eyeliner, led Iris to feature on Shark Tank just three months after the brands launch, and subsequently turning down a $300,000 offer. This decision allowed Iris to build her products into a multi-million dollar business with expanding deals with retailers such as Priceline and Super Drug.
