My grandma's were a girly girl, 77 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: so uh, we always met the handbags, the scarves, the gloves, 78 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 1: the shoes, everything was you know, you had a you 79 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: had a specific thing that went with a specific thing, 80 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 1: and you know, the older I got, you know, the 81 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: more prosperous I got. I was able to buy some 82 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 1: things that you know, cost a little money. And then 83 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: I'm started figuring, I'm like, no, wait a minute, I'm 84 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: giving all these people all this money. What about my fans? 85 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 1: Because people always ask me who are you wearing? Who 86 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: was that by?

You know, there's no sense of 97 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: me trying to reinvent the wheel if someone has already 98 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: success done it. And that's one that's one of the 99 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 1: things that you have taught so well. When you know 100 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: someone who does something, merge with them, you know, uh, 101 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 1: you know, do a joint venture or something like that 102 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: with them.

One water opens your pores, cold water, 278 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 1: ice closes your pores. And what the reason I want 279 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: to bring up this about is that we as African 280 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 1: Americans and we know what we're dealing with in these 281 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 1: pandemic times.

And again we come 284 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 1: into a product bathroom, your bathroom body collection where guess 285 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: what the price point is very reasonable? Talk about that. Well, 286 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: here's the thing. As I got older, I realized that 287 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 1: my skin and my body were changing. Uh you know me, 288 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: I am a health nut I have always taken care 289 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 1: of myself nutritionally, spiritually, and physically, and I found that 290 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 1: the products that I was using, they were costing a 291 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: lot of money and I was not seeing the results 292 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 1: that I wanted. So I got with a friend of 293 00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: ours and UM, I said, you know what I've been thinking, 294 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: can really hard about creating my own bath and bodyline. 295 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 1: You know that was that we had the candles at first, 296 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:08,640 Speaker 1: and it was like, oh my gosh, if you do that, 297 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: I will be a part of your your team. And um, 298 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 1: we got with a scientists who was privy to some 299 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 1: of the really higher in um cosmetics and and and 300 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:28,119 Speaker 1: and pharmaceuticals and skin suticals and all of those things 301 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 1: that nurture the skin. And I told him, Hey, this 302 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,439 Speaker 1: is the thing that we have to do. We have 303 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,919 Speaker 1: to cleanse the skin, but we have to leave a 304 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 1: seal of moisture in there so people don't have to 305 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: continually use the flay, you know, over and over and 306 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: over again during during the day, because people don't have 307 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 1: that kind of time. They get in the shower, they 308 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: get out of the shower moisturized, they're headed to work 309 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: or headed to wherever they're going to go and so 310 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: you you know, I know all these influencers are doing 311 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,400 Speaker 1: a lot of things right now. I mean, but they're 312 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 1: at home in front of cameras.
