Now you may be wondering how a 15-year old man-
aged to “create a brand”. Her story starts when she was
at a very young age and actively participated in dance
contests, which required her to wear a lot of makeup.
Her makeup removers where harsh on her skin and she
wanted a natural alternative. Izzi originally only want-
ed a product that could keep her skin clean, but as she
started focus grouping it in school, her friends wanted
it and it led to Izzi into thinking about turning it into
a business. At the age of only eight Izzi found herself
attending business meetings developing her own line of As a teenager, Izzi continues a normal teenage life in
school and never misses a day, except when her com-

But it wasn’t at all easy for the young girl to create
her business. As a young teenager, Izzi was not taken
seriously and she was faced with the challenge to find
ways to make things happen and launch her company.
In June 2016, Izzi appeared on an Australian hit TV
show, Shark Tank, asking investors for $65,000 in ex-
change for 20% of her company. As intrigued and im-
pressed these investors or ‘sharks’ were, they did not
take the bait. But after Shark Tank, Izzi said that people
started listening to her a lot more and she pushed ahead
with her business instead of shying away due to her one
failure and rejection. A month after her experience in
Shark Tank, Izzi got her contract from Priceline.
