EP62: This week on Boujee Best Friend, we sit down with Sarah Lee, co-founder of Glow Recipe, a brand known for its fruit-forward, clean products for healthy glowing skin. Sarah co-founded the company with her best friend, Christine Chang.

Glow Recipe has become a skincare favorite for many, thanks to Sarah's vision of promoting gentle and effective formulas that embrace the ever-changing needs of our skin and empower us to love and care for it.

As a successful entrepreneur, Sarah shares advice on climbing the corporate ladder, public speaking, standing out, raising money from investors, finding the right co-founder (like her best friend Christine!), and more.

Throughout the conversation, we dive deeper into the exciting story of how Glow Recipe came into existence—a dream born from their passion for skincare. Sarah tells us about the challenges she faced and how she and Christine found the right investors and partners who believed in the brand's mission.
