Allison McNamara, Founder of MARA, Talks Entertainment Hosting, The Benefits of Algae, and Beauty Entrepreneurship

Today we welcome Allison McNamara to the show, TV host and fashion/beauty influencer who created the clean, algae-infused skincare line, MARA. Allison started her career hosting television and digital programs for outlets like Who What Wear, POPSUGAR, ABC’s Emmy® Award-winning Oscar red carpet pre-show, The Today show, and TV Guide Network. On a trip to Istanbul in 2017, Allison came up with the concept for MARA inspired by the sea. Growing up in a beauty-centered family, with her father working for brands such as Too Faced and Neutrogena, Allison always saw a future in the industry. MARA launched in 2018 and is now known for clean, sustainable skincare featuring a proprietary blend of wild harvested algae and skin-loving superfoods to keep your skin glowing. We have a great conversation about her journey, evolution, and all things MARA.
