Sparkle
By Julia Barteau
Mission Statement
! Sparkle is devoted to giving young girls the opportunity to have the best of personal care products. Sparkle joins with Make a Wish Foundation to teach young girls how to care for themselves along with children in need. For every item that is sold, fifteen percent of the
profit goes toward a child and their wish. Sparkle believes in teaching and
caring for everyone yet in a trendy, colorful and fun way.
! Sparkle is unique because it relates to young girls who want fun and exciting personal care products. Sparkle does not sell the average shampoo and conditioner. We offer products that give the client a trendy addition to their fashion look as a whole.
! Sparkle will be sold through high end department stores such as Nordrom or Bloomingdales
! The selling period will be the Spring of 2013 which includes January through July
