When Essentially Lili was founded, it was pretty much a ‘Jump In With Both Feet’ kind of experience.
We were unsure of going ahead with this venture. We were afraid of failing, scared, and worried that it would become such an overwhelming experience, that we would not cope as a result.
I contemplated becoming a consultant for a well-known established Brand as the safer option. But I knew I would be unable to promote products that I was unwilling to use on my own face due to what I suffered in my youth.
I remember feeling somewhat overwhelmed as my brain processed the negative thought process of, ‘What if I can’t?What if I fail? What if no one likes what I do?’It is so easy to remain in a negative mindset and so much harder to pull yourself out with your head held high as you plan to ‘Jump in with Both Feet’!
To help overcome my uncertainty, I went to see what other women and mums were doing in Zurich. These Mums are inspirational, to say the least, as they juggle their often very young families, commitments, and businesses to be a success! They make, create, sell, inspire, share, help, promote, build each other up and encourage other women to do the same.
I said to myself … ‘Well, why not? If I don’t try, I will never know and might regret this for the rest of my life.
What if they absolutely LOVE Our Brand containing all-natural ingredients for our homemade Products you can choose at Shop Categories, which have No Chemicals or Unnatural Preservatives? Wouldn’t it be better for people to use the Essentially Lili Products and share via Word of Mouth their love for it to others?
Excited about the prospect of helping others, the name Essentially Lili came to life by bringing together the use of Essential Oils and my name Lili.
Two days later, with a bag of sample containers obtained from our local Chemist / Drogerie, we cleared the kitchen and began making a batch of Nourishing Face Balm to give out to people.We went to Zurich and handed out Essentially Lili samples with a note about the ingredients contained, details about Essentially Lili and how to contact us for more information.
We waited… and waited… and waited for Feedback. This was the hardest part, waiting and then collating feedback.
Our first client’s face to face feedback (which can be found in Testimonials had me in tears of joy, as I listened to her story and how the Essentially Lili product had helped her in such a short space of time.
Since then, we have been asked to make so many other products that are now in the Essentially Lili Range. There is feedback about the various products in the Testimonials part of the website which we hope you will enjoy reading.
It has been a roller-coaster journey so far, with mixed emotions of joy and frustration. We have had to juggle the time around our young family and studies.We have been building the brand and reputation, whilst creating and blending products. The amazing stories shared by people make this journey all worth it.
