Today we’d like to introduce you to Cecily Dipold
Hi Cecily , thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I’ve always had a love for social media – it fascinated me from a young age. I remember spending hours scrolling through different platforms, learning how people connected and created content that resonated with so many others. It was like a whole new world to me.
In October of 2023, everything changed when my first video went viral. That moment was a turning point, and from there on, I became even more drawn to social media. It was exhilarating to see how something I created could reach so many people. The viral video gave me the confidence to dive deeper into the world of content creation.
Since then, I’ve been lucky enough to work with some incredible brands, including Glossier, Charlotte Tilbury, and Hollister. These partnerships have been such amazing opportunities, and I’m beyond grateful for how they’ve helped me grow both personally and professionally in the social media space. It’s been a wild ride, and I can’t wait to see where it takes me next!
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It hasn’t always been a smooth road. One of the biggest struggles I’ve faced has been shutting out negativity, both from outside sources and sometimes even from my own mind. It’s easy to get caught up in doubts and criticism, especially when you’re putting yourself out there. I’ve also spent hours editing videos, sometimes perfecting every little detail, only to get just a few views in return. It can be frustrating when you pour so much effort into something, and the results don’t match your expectations.
But honestly, those struggles have been pretty small compared to the overall journey. The experience has been incredibly rewarding. Despite the challenges, I’ve learned so much along the way, and seeing the positive feedback, no matter how small, makes it all worth it. It’s about growth, learning to handle the tough moments, and appreciating the wins when they come.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
I specialize in creating beauty and lifestyle content on social media, where I share tips, trends, and personal experiences with my audience. Whether it’s makeup tutorials, skincare routines, or lifestyle advice, I’m passionate about inspiring others to feel confident and empowered in their daily lives. In addition to my content creation, I also model on the side, which allows me to bring a creative and unique perspective to my work.
What I’m most proud of is the strong connection I’ve built with my audience over time, as well as the opportunity to partner with various brands that align with my values and aesthetic. These collaborations have been a highlight, allowing me to share products I truly love with my followers while helping brands reach their target audience in an authentic way.
What sets me apart from others is my ability to balance my beauty and lifestyle content with modeling, bringing a versatile and polished approach to everything I do. My passion for authenticity, creativity, and empowering others is what really drives me in my work.
Can you tell us more about what you were like growing up?
Growing up, I was always someone who stood out to others, and I think it’s because I was naturally confident and unapologetically myself. From a young age, people often told me that I was “different,” but in the best way. I was always outgoing, and I poured my heart into everything I did—whether it was school, hobbies, or just everyday life. My passion was infectious, and I think that’s what really drew people to me. I was the type of person who knew exactly what I loved and went after it with everything I had.
Everyone around me, from family to friends, always told me that I was destined for something big and successful. It was like they could see my potential before I even fully understood it myself. That encouragement and belief from others really fueled my drive to pursue my passions and keep pushing forward.
