What Glow For It does

After lockdown left her with damaged lashes and a cut-short university degree, Daisy Kelly spotted a gap for an affordable, effective lash serum that wasn't oil-based or full of harmful hormones. She invested the rest of her student loan into formulating her first product, borrowing the cost of her first manufacturing order from her mum - and paid it back from the profits of batch one. Glow For It has since grown from a single lash serum into a fast-growing UK beauty brand with a loyal community, championing natural beauty for everyone.
