When they say, “I‘ve used so many BRITTNIONE: As a teenager, I suffered with acne, and I’m very cautious about what I put on my skin, especially [since] cancer and stuff like that [are] at an all- time high. So I’m very, very cautious when it comes to putting things on my skin. So, [I thought], “Why not create something for myself?” And when I saw that it was working, my husband started using it; he liked it. Then [other] people always asked me, “What are you using?” I was like, “Okay, why not sell it?” It’s been going ever since then. WHAT’S BEEN YOUR PROUDEST MOMENT AS A BUSINESS OWNER?
