I've been so busy for the past few days (months even). Working 2 jobs for a Fashion site and for a Skin Care product, I've been squeezing few winks for sleep.
Okay. I'm a smoker. I started noticing that my lips have been drying up, as dry as his feelings for me now. CHAROT. So I spent so many hours everyday for ways on how to hydrate my f*cked up lips. Virgin Coconut Oil is one solution. I was like "NO MY MOUTH AIN'T VIRGIN" (you guys must get used with my humor coz you're going to read lots of it.... IF you're really reading any of the stuff I'm writing). Anyway, a friend of mine suggested an online store which sells stuff for pharmacies, spas, and local beauty products. I browsed through and boom! I found all the answers. I decided to try to make a lip butter / balm or whatever a vain bitch will call it.
Of course I wouldn't have the guts to launch something without hearing some critics of friends, friends of friends, enemies of my friends, enemies of my enemies. I spent an amount to actually make a lip balm and gave them all out to people I know and people I don't know.
To People I Know: they would give me "friendly" opinion
To People I Don't Know: (I actually have balms to my daughter's student teachers) they would give me brutally honest opinion.
Perk: Free Balm
Con: a questionnaire which you have to return to me after a week
Over-all, they do like the lip balm.
Unlike my previous business attempts, my main goal with those ventures was to make tons of money, get on a plane, land on Maldives and forget everything that happened for the past years, never come back and maybe find Wilson from the Castaway movie. This time, I want something real. I want to be busy with something worthwhile. I want a serious business that can last. I want to get hands-on from developing the product itself, to marketing, to designs, etc. I'm bobo with numbers though, so I think I need an accountant.
I'm looking into 15-20 days to launch it. I'm so excited! I am actually so busy with designing the packaging and containers. I usually forget to reply to online messages and texts sometimes because I am so busy with everything!
I'm going to add this to my blog post for today too: So blessed with the 2 jobs I have! I couldn't ask for more.
