The Secret to “Staying Power”? Our New Show with Kate Mackz and Maybelline Taps Female Athletes to Find Out

Spring is the perfect time for a reset—but if you’re anything like us, you could use an extra dose of motivation. Luckily, we’ve got just the thing. Introducing “Staying Power,” our new social series in partnership with Maybelline that’s serving up plenty of inspiration, female empowerment and some great makeup tips. Each episode, content creator Kate Mackz invites female athletes and fitness instructors to work out with her, all while unpacking the secrets to their success and yes, staying power. Intrigued? We thought so. Here’s everything you need to know about the show.

Kate Mackz is an avid runner who’s on a mission to get the world moving. She’s made a name for herself combining fitness and storytelling as the host of The Running Interview Show, where she chats with guests from diverse backgrounds all while they’re, well, running. She’s a natural fit for “Staying Power,” in which she takes things a step further, meeting guests on their home turf. It’s all about putting herself in their shoes, testing her own athletic endurance and exploring how new circumstances can push you further than you ever thought possible. Because these women know: The only way you get stronger is to keep challenging yourself.  

Kate joins forces with an all-star lineup of inspiring women. Think: a soccer star, a ballerina and Olympic athletes to name a few:

• Melissa Ortiz: Former professional soccer player and now a globetrotting sports broadcaster and entrepreneur.
• Callie Gullickson: Peloton instructor, all-around wellness guru and new mom to a baby boy.
• Tiler Peck: Principal dancer with the New York City Ballet, choreographer, author of children’s books and clothing designer.
• Camila Ramon: Peloton’s first cycling and tread instructor to teach classes in both English and Spanish and founder of a program aimed at helping Latinx women develop a positive relationship with exercise.
• Colleen Quigley: Runner, steeplechase specialist, Olympian, world-record holder and model.
• Megan Roup: Founder of in-demand fitness app The Sculpt Society, mom, dancer and entrepreneur. 

We mentioned makeup, but what does that have to do with staying power? As it turns out, a lot. Since our show is centered around workouts, Kate needed products with stamina—whether she’s sweating on the treadmill or balancing in ballet. That’s why we teamed up with Maybelline: From face to lip, their Super Stay line is just as resilient as its wearers. Before every interview, Kate will choose the Maybelline Super Stay product that suits her vibe. We’ll see Kate applying the product, followed by a “Stay Check,” aka a real-life look at how well it withstood her workout and her girl chat. Check out the products below and let’s just say, after seeing Kate’s experience, we’re pretty sure Super Stay could make it through an entire marathon—and then some.
