The Balm

The founder of The Balm, realized that there were a few simple products she needed to help her feel glam all the time. Then she decided that if she needed them, other women probably did too.

So she went to Amazon, bought 11 books on how to make makeup and started mixing in her kitchen.

"I went crazy. I had a web site designed, got incorporated, worked out a budget, and hired a chemist."

The rest is history! Well, not yet but with her great ingredients, gorgeous colors and fabulous scents, Marissa is certainly making makeup history.
