Luv ur Skin

Isabella Dymalovski is a young entrepreneur that started her business “luv ur skin.” Her products consist of all-natural skin care products that are made with botanical ingredients. One of her biggest motivators was to create a skincare product that was aimed towards the younger generation. She also wanted to create a product that was all-natural and healthy for the skin because when she was looking for a product with these attributes, she realized there just wasn’t one. That’s when she decided to take things into her own hands and start her business. When asked what her motivation was behind starting luv my skin she stated, “I noticed a real gap in the skincare category for a range of natural products that would be suitable for young girls skin.”

For how young Isabella is, she demonstrates numerous different traits that makes her stand out. First off, she was able to find a gap in the market. Although there’s tons of skin care products, there was a need for all-natural products that are aimed for the younger generation. With her product she fulfills this need.  Secondly, she is highly motivated. She’s one of the youngest entrepreneurs to appear on shark tank and she worked very hard to make her dream of starting a business a reality. Even though she had a great idea it took hard work to become successful and get to where she is today.

Overall, I am very inspired by Isabella’s entrepreneurial mind. Not only did she come up with great idea, but she worked hard to get where she is.  Even though she has a successful business she plans to continue to make new products and keep working to improve the skin care market. One of the biggest principles I’ve learned from Isabella’s story is to listen. She would not be where she is today without the help of the people around her and that’s important point I think we can all learn from.

From Idea to world-class product: 15 year old Isabella brings her business to life

New Furniture Design Options

Mukund Agarwal is a 19-year-old entrepreneur that found a gap in the furniture market and started up his own company, Brownstraw. Brownstraw is a furniture company that produces a wide variety of customization options. He first thought of this idea when he was shopping for clothes. He realized the lack of options for customized furniture and wanted to create a company that has a variety of furniture just like clothes do. Agarwal’s biggest goal is not only to customize furniture but have options of different types of furniture that a customer wouldn’t normally see when furniture shopping.yourstory-Brownstraw

Agarwals company is unique from others because he strives to provide different furniture options that a customer could not find elsewhere. What makes his idea great is he is trying to reinvent the furniture industry. There are thousands of places that sell furniture, but you generally find the same designs and features. This is where Brownstraw looks to separate itself from the competition. He wants to be different from the rest of the competition.

One thing I’ve learned from Agarwals thinking is that even through an industry like the furniture industry is successful and well established, doesn’t mean it can’t be made better. Although this wasn’t a need in the industry, it’s providing an answer to a want of more options when furniture shopping. Agarwal definitely has a entrepreneurially spirit and has a bright future considering his families background in business.

Seeing Noa’s idea and how she started up her business inspires me because it shows that you are never to young to start up a business. She was just starting middle school when she came up with the idea and her business only grew from there. Being in college I often find myself thinking I’m to busy or don’t have time to follow up an idea but seeing her do it at such a young age has inspired me to start trying to follow up on my ideas because who knows where it could go from there. Something I learned from Noa’s story is that if it’s a problem i’m having, other people probably have that same problem. That is how Noa came up with her idea and that’s a good place to start when I’m brainstorming ideas.
