Initially, I envisioned my beauty line to begin in 2020, but it wasn't until the start of this year that I began to take action. I designed my logo, conducted my research (a lot of it), and contacted vendors and suppliers. I also built our website from scratch. All of this while raising my twins and 6 yr old son.
The first thing I did was educate myself as much as possible. I knew nothing about running a business. On August 6, I launched GVR Cosmetics. At the same time, I took a course on business sponsored by BofA . (Thank you so much for this awesome opportunity) This was a difficult year, but also one of the most rewarding. I had to learn a lot of things the hard way. There were times when all I wanted to do was to quit, but I knew I was capable of more. I learned that family is the strongest and most powerful root that we have to keep us standing.
Certainly an incredible year, with all the achievements, the stumbles, and the strength to keep going ... thank you to all who were part of this year, for your friendship, your love, your support, and for just being here!
