Kadin Collins

Hi Kadin, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
My journey began with a passion two years ago at the age of nine: to create something beautiful and personal. I’ve always been drawn to creativity and self-care, and it felt right to put those ideas into a brand that shows love and empowerment. I started by experimenting with beauty products—lip glosses and balms. Each item was inspired by people I love and look up to, especially my family. My mother’s encouragement helped me believe in my dreams and that belief is put into every product I make. Over time, Kraftzbykadin grew into more than just a business—it became a plan for uplifting and empowerment, every step has been a learning experience. I’m proud of where I am today and excited about where I’m going. Kraftzbykadin isn’t just about products—it’s about togetherness and creativity, and I’m just getting started.

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
To be honest, it’s been a little hard. Building Kraftzbykadin has challenged me in ways I never imagined. There were moments when I wanted to give up, especially when juggling sport activities and running a business. Many people did not believe in my ideas. But the love from my family-my mom, my aunt Sandra, my cousin KB, the memory of my grandparents kept me going. Their encouragement reminded me of why I started in the first place. Every struggle became a motivation, and every setback helped me get a better idea on what Kraftzbykadin stands for. This journey has taught me to fight for what I want. I’m proud of the progress, even when it’s been hard—and I’m more confident than ever to keep crafting something that feels great for anyone who uses it.

As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I’m the heart behind Kraftzbykadin. I specialize in handmade beauty products that are created with love. From lip glosses to custom care items—even products for pets—everything I create shows who I am and what I believe in. People often say I’m known for putting a lot of thought into my work. Whether it’s my packaging or how I put lip care cards in every purchase—I treat every item like something special for people to use.

What I’m most proud of is not giving up on my dreams, even when things felt hard. There were so many times when I did not believe my ideas would work or even go this far. But somehow, I always knew things would work out. I stayed true to my vision: I’m here to create products for everyone, products that feel personal and real. And honestly, that’s the part of this journey I love the most.

What sets Kraftzbykadin apart is the connection behind the brand. It’s not just about what’s in the tins or the gloss tube—it’s about how it makes you feel, every product is handmade. That’s really important to me—because I want each item to feel one of a kind. What I create isn’t just about beauty, it’s about encouraging self-love. Even the names of my gloss shades and flavors carry affirmations. I believe in the power of words—so when someone wears “Powerful Faye Pink” or “Worthy Watermelon,” it’s not just a color or flavor, it’s a daily reminder. That kind of bond is what sets my brand apart.

Alright so before we go can you talk to us a bit about how people can work with you, collaborate with you or support you?
People can collaborate with me at events, pop-ups, or brand partnerships—I’m always open to different projects. I love teaming up with people who see beauty the same way I do and want to bring something new to their customers. You can also support just by sharing the love, tagging Kraftzbykadin on social media, spreading the word about my products, ordering from the website, or simply telling a friend makes a huge difference. Every order and shoutout helps me keep crafting.
