Behind The Brand: By Terry

by-terry-brand-history

Date of Birth: 1998

Founder: Terry de Gunzburg

History: By Terry is the creation of Terry de Gunzburg, a world renowned makeup artist who began her career in 1975. It all started when Terry developed an interest in makeup and decided to take a course with beauty gurus Maria and Rosy Carita, the sister act behind the famed Carita salon on Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. What followed was a career as a makeup artist, working with top photographers like David Bailey and Helmut Newton. She was even the creative director of YSL Beauté and was the mastermind behind the brand's famous Touche Éclat. She is also responsible for one of my favourite beauty buzzwords, glow. As Terry herself puts it, "I invented the word ‘glow’ in this industry. It sounds ridiculous but it’s true. I always believed even when I was a makeup artists that glow is much more interesting than perfection. My focus was to get the glow".
