MEET THE FOUNDER

Maria L. Bland is the Founder and CEO of Shop P.U.R.E. Lip, a beauty brand created to celebrate confidence, individuality, and self-expression. A corporate leader, entrepreneur, wife, and mother of three daughters, Maria represents the balance of modern ambition—leading in business while nurturing creativity, purpose, and family.
The inspiration for P.U.R.E. Lip began at home. Watching her daughters’ love of cosmetics, Maria was motivated to create lip products that were both safe and beautifully expressive. Her daughters—Kennedi, Cameron, and Cachet—quickly became collaborators, offering insight into what was missing from their lip collections. Together, this dynamic mother-daughter team researched, tested, and ultimately brought the P.U.R.E. Lip brand to life.
Today, Maria’s daughters proudly serve as the signature models behind the brand, reflecting the authenticity and inspiration that sparked its creation. Through clean, inclusive lip care and immersive brand experiences, Shop P.U.R.E. Lip invites everyone to build their own lip narrative—because true beauty, however defined, is perfection.
“P.U.R.E. Lip was created to give everyone the autonomy to build their own lip narrative.”
