5. The Lip Bar
Two women, Melissa and Susie, started The Lip Bar, a makeup company. They created a line of lipstick and other makeup products that are vegan, cruelty-free, and made with natural ingredients. The Lip Bar was rejected by the Sharks on Shark Tank, but that didn’t stop the company from becoming a success.
Magazines like Cosmopolitan and Allure have featured The Lip Bar, and the company has also made appearances on The Today Show. The company has grown tremendously since appearing on Shark Tank.
The Lip Bar is proof that you don’t need the Sharks to be successful. Despite facing rejection on national television, they persevered and built a thriving business. Their story is an inspiration to anyone who has ever had a dream.
