Desi Perkins Net Worth – $3 million

What is Desi Perkins’ net worth? Who is Desi Perkins’ husband?

Introduction

Desi Perkins is an American content creator, beauty influencer, and founder of the eyewear brand – “Dezi.”

The Origin Story

Victoria Desiree Mata was born on March 3, 1987, in Los Angeles, California.

The West Coast native was raised in a tight knit family, with her parents and three brothers, and credits her dad as being her biggest inspiration.

What is it that she admires most about her dad? His “gift of not stressing or worrying.”

The glamorous beauty influencer says she wants to be like him one day, and stop doubting herself—but that it’s a work in progress.

She also credits her mom, Patty, for working so tirelessly to provide for her family.

Desi always loved makeup and beauty, and the ability she had to create something from a blank canvas.

An avid designer, sketcher, and artist, Desi lives to create beautiful things.

Desi has come up in the YouTube ranks with Katy DeGroot—AKA Lustrelux. DeGroot, who has 1.93 million YouTube subscribers and over 160 million video views, is no longer as active as an influencer on YouTube. She hasn’t uploaded a new video since late 2021.

The pair, who started out as co-workers for the same talent agency, built a strong bond.

In a 2021 Instagram post where she tagged Katy, Desi commented:

From co worker —> friend —> best friend —> family —> my sons’ madrina
Now you’re stuck with me for life.

Husband

While learning the tricks of the makeup trade in her late teens, Desi met Steven Perkins at an LA Abercrombie and Fitch store in 2006.

Both Desi and Steven were seeing other people, and Steven didn’t make a great first impression on the Latina beauty.

Over time, the pair became friends, and when their respective relationships had ended they went on a date.

After another five years of dates they moved in together, and the following year—2012—the pair got married.

Desi, who has quite a conservative approach towards family and romance, stated in a Q&A video on her channel that 6 years was way too long to date before they got married.

Desi Perkins and Steven got married in the summer at Laguna Beach, with Steven sharing the ceremony on his YouTube channel in August of that year.

The loved up couple jetted off to Fiji for their honeymoon.

The husband and wife duo weren’t just a pretty package—they make an amazing team.

Desi, the creative side of the business—as well as the face of the brand—is complemented by her husband’s graphic design and technical prowess. Steven shoots and edits most of the videos.

Back in 2013, Desi and Steven found out they were pregnant for the first time.

Desi presented her positive pregnancy test to her husband, but sadly the pair miscarried a few months later.

They struggled to fall pregnant again, with Desi opening up in a YouTube series the pair uploaded, titled Fertility Journey.

Desi explained that she didn’t want to talk about it, felt ashamed, and eventually learned that she couldn’t conceive naturally.

The pair sought fertility treatment, and after 7 years of struggle, they welcomed their first child, a son named Ocean, in October 2020.

In March of 2022, Desi and her husband announced that they are expecting their second baby in the summer. The baby girl was born on August 15, 2022.

Desi Perkins – Net Worth

So, how much is Desi Perkins worth? Perkins earned most of her wealth from ads on YouTube and sponsors. Therefore, Desi Perkins has an estimated net worth of $3 million.

On YouTube, Desi has over 263 million views — meaning about $770K in revenue.

Not content to just juggle a burgeoning YouTube empire and a growing family, Desi launched her own skincare line. “Everything I love about skin care was instilled from my family,” Desi told Refinery29.

Dezi Skin started with a vitamin C serum and then expanded to include a moisturizer, mask, eye mask, and travel kit.

Perkins’ skincare line joins her collaboration with sunglass brand Quay, her joint eyeshadow and lipstick venture with Katy DeGroot and Dose of Colors cosmetics, and her own self-named sunglasses brand, to make up her growing empire.
