From cliff edge to comeback: The story behind Cocoa Brown

On this episode of Guaranteed Irish Stories, Bríd is joined by Marissa Carter, founder of Cocoa Brown, the award-winning Irish beauty brand that changed the game with its 1 Hour Tan Mousse. Also joining the conversation is her husband and business partner, Ronan O’Flaherty.

Together, they share the story behind the meteoric rise of Cocoa Brown and the grit it took to survive the bumps along the way.

✨ How a surprise endorsement from Kris Jenner catapulted the brand into the global spotlight — and what it meant for Cocoa Brown’s future 🔥 The firestorm of 2019, when the business nearly collapsed overnight 📈 How they’ve fought back, winning back shelf space and consumer trust with quiet determination. Why Marissa is fiercely proud to be part of the Guaranteed Irish community — and how Irish brands lift each other up

This episode is all about resilience, reinvention, and real talk from one of Ireland’s most inspiring female founders
