Glaze Studio
Brand Extension: Ethnically Agnostic Skincare

2021

Developed a comprehensive business plan, built a pitch deck, and formulated a 5-year financial strategy to facilitate Glaze's strategic expansion into the skincare sector. Leveraged proactive outreach efforts to secure high-value meetings with prominent venture capitalists and angel investors. Effectively pitched to potential investors, garnering interest from various early-stage venture capital firms. Currently spearheading the development of a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) as a critical step towards substantiating the concept and securing essential capital investment.

Pitch

Ethnic backgrounds are mixing, individual race groups are shrinking, and the “industry standard” is changing, yet the vast majority of skincare brands do not formulate or test their products against all 6 skin tones on the Fitzpatrick scale. Glaze is creating a line of products formulated to rebuild, refine, and protect skin of all tones and types for this ever-blending world.

Founder-Market Fit

Lived experience! As an interracial couple with backgrounds in Industrial Design, my husband and I bring a genuine story to an industry in need of inclusive formulations and sustainable packaging.
