Zandra Cunningham’s idea of business idea of natural makeup products is truly admirable. The article explains how her business idea was sparked from her dad telling her, “no” when she asked if she could wear makeup when she was little. I remember when I was younger and also wanted to wear makeup, however, because of many of the harmful products that are in makeup now, my parents were afraid of me having a reaction from the products. Brands such as Bare Minerals, are a good option when looking for a cleaner makeup product, however, they are extremely expensive.
Being that she was inspired to chase this idea at only nine and opening an Etsy shop when she was 12, is astounding! She has now 21 years old and has been recognized for being one of the youngest millionaires in America. Zandra is a perfect example of a motivational figure in society, who, if you put your mind to something, age does not matter. This is also a show of proof that people want clean and healthy products!
This is a cool story! I think it’s so interesting that Zandra took something she wanted when she was younger and used that to become a millionaire. It’s also interesting to me that it was just the harmful products in makeup that was the reason she was not able to use makeup as a kid. I know for me when I was younger, the reason was also because makeup is just too grown up for a little kid. But the fact that she became so successful so young is really cool! Great post!
