Experience
Nina Derwin is a New Jersey native turned Brooklynite with a passion for skincare, haircare, and makeup that enhances our natural beauty. She contributes to a wide assortment of home and lifestyle publications that include Martha Stewart, U.S. News, The Kitchn, and Reader's Digest.
Nina was an Executive Story Editor on Season 3 of the award-winning Starz drama P-Valley, her third season as part of the writing staff, and a staff writer on FOX's soapy Filthy Rich. A proud graduate of New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts, Nina got her start in television as a Writers’ Assistant on various series including Baz Luhrmann’s The Get Down.
A curly girlie with sensitive, acne-prone skin, Nina learned from a young age that the products she used could make or break not only her complexion and hair style, but her self-confidence, thus inspiring her passion for beauty and self-care. Long days on television sets and in production offices taught Nina that the best products are those that can withstand a busy work day and a New York City subway commute.
Education
Nina holds a BFA in Film & Television from New York University.
