==Phan Launches Ipsy, Partners With Lancôme and L'Oréal==
Her partnership with Lancôme began in 2010, with Phan creating monthly video tutorials using the beauty brand’s products. (Ironically, she had applied for a job at the Lancôme counter in a department store a few years earlier — and had been rejected due to a lack of sales experience.)
That same year, Phan also began working onIpsy , her make-up startup. Ipsy sends “glam bags” to subscribers who pay $10 a month to receive new products; unsold items are donated to charities. By 2015, the company was valued at $500 million by Forbes, and received a $100 million investment; this helped fund a range of new projects, such as Ipsy Open Studios, a 10,000 square foot space in Santa Monica, where beauty vloggers can shoot content professionally. Phan also partnered with Endemol Shine Group to launch a multi-platform lifestyle network, Icon, devoted to beauty, lifestyle, and entertainment.
==Em Fails, Phan Walks==
The online trolling Phan received over Em’s failure took a toll on her mental health, and she began to post less on social media — before quitting altogether in 2016. She did not post any photos on Instagram or even any videos to YouTube for most of the year. "It is really scary because you can become irrelevant. If you don't upload a video or stay updated, within a month you're irrelevant," she wrote in Teen Vogue . But her need for a break outweighed her fears. “I packed a suitcase — my whole life — in one piece of luggage, and I just left. I didn’t even tell anyone. My business partners, board members, everyone was freaking out …” She used her time to travel the world, visiting Europe and Africa, and soon “all my worries and struggles all of a sudden felt like nothing.”
