Beauty Box is growing

The kangaroo was very excited when he saw this a couple of days ago.

He was like, “Babe, you gotta take a photo of your first big delivery from Tokyo!”

It’s not that big at all but it does feel good to be making headway. I read somewhere that owning your own business makes you go through a lot of highs and lows emotionally — I totally agree. There were days I fretted about cash flow and others about supply, but all good stresses to have overall.

What I get a kick out of it is that trying to grow something which is out of your own sweat and tears gives a renewed purpose to waking up every morning. It’s such a cliché but it’s true. I never got that excited writing about sex in a previous job.

Since October, my mother has been handling the Singapore side of things, while I take care of international orders, which is slowly increasing as the weeks go by. I’m surprised to know that collagen powder is quite a universal product with both Asian and Western women.

I’ve had orders mostly from North America which was kind of the last place I’d expect to get business — I had the impression that collagen was consumed in pill form or used in cosmetic surgical procedures only. Would any of my America readers shed some light on this?
