Beauty Brand Intern - Summer 2026

Internship Opportunity: Beauty Brand Intern

Location: Los Angeles, CA

About Us:

Lost Angels is a female-founded, trend-setting beauty brand reinventing the press-on nail experience. Co-founded by LA-based celebrity nail artist, Lost Angels is rooted in industry-first innovations—a medium almond shape, a proprietary gel top coat, and professional-grade adhesive. Our designs don’t follow trends—they set them.

As a fast-growing startup, we’re looking for a driven, creative, and detail-oriented intern to join our team this summer. This is a hands-on opportunity to work directly with the founders and gain experience across multiple areas of brand-building and beauty entrepreneurship.

The Beauty Brand Intern will support Lost Angels across key areas of marketing, content, product development, and e-commerce operations. This role will focus on executing day-to-day brand initiatives, supporting influencer and social media strategy, and assisting with product launches and retail efforts.

Interns will gain hands-on exposure to brand strategy, content creation, influencer partnerships, product lifecycle development, and direct-to-consumer operations within a high-growth beauty startup environment.
