Rising Stars: Meet Melissa Humphries of Texas and Oregon

Today we’d like to introduce you to Melissa Humphries

Hi Melissa, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
(Melissa co-founder): The Beauty Food Company was created almost 10 years ago, as an extension of my Nutrition and Wellness Coaching business. I wanted to create the purest form of natural and organic products that contained no chemicals, preservatives, synthetic fragrance, coloring or additives. I hold a strong philosophy of skin care should promote a healthy glow and not be toxic—we shouldn’t seek beauty at the cost of our health.

I was ecstatic when my daughter ,Elle collaborated with me to grow the company with her aesthetic’s background and science degree. Together we are in preparation R&D to double our product portfolio. So many exciting news to share over the next few months. A creative and passionate mother daughter duo are the quite the energy behind the production.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The hardest challenge has been that of being “solo-prenuer” — we have grown enough to bring on our first intern for production management and we can focus further on marketable growth. Both Melissa (at almost 60), and Elle (mid 20’s ) are both part time models for various select projects—we love being the faces of our own skincare!

Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?
