💫 2. Your Authentic Truth

Before you build your beauty brand, you need to know yourself.

Every unforgettable brand starts with a founder who is crystal clear on their story, purpose, and passions.

In a saturated industry, authenticity is your competitive edge.

Your point of difference often comes from your lived experiences, the problems you’ve personally faced, and what you deeply care about changing in the world.

This section helps you uncover your why — so that every decision you make next (your product, formula, design, and messaging) is anchored in truth.
