Throw Like A Girl is a brand that promotes participation in group sports by young girls, and also advocates for a high level of self-esteem in female athletes. One of the cofounders was able to tell us more about the company.

What inspired you to create Throw Like A Girl?

“My husband and I both played sports, and I especially recognized a difference in expectations for how girls are supposed to perform. We wanted to create a brand that would empower girls and allow them to be proud to ‘throw like a girl’. We believe participation in group sports adds to higher self-esteem. We aim to dress girls in sporty, trendy, quality clothing that can be worn at home, school or practice.”

What is your ultimate goal with Throw Like A Girl?

“Our goal is to be a nationally recognized brand that encourages daughters to be proud that they throw like a girl. We also want all girls to have the opportunity to reach their potential with confidence. We believe playing sports is one way to accomplish that goal. We created Throw Like A Girl because us girls should be proud that we are unique and different than the boys in our life. Most most importantly, we throw just as well!”

Let It Bee Natural is a family-owned business that creates custom-crafted, chemical-free and cost-effective products. The owner, Robert Miller, went into more detail about his story and how his own experiences with cancer sparked passion for creating a product line free of man-made toxins.

“After decades of multiple specialist and doctors diagnosing conflicting reports with a wide variety of miscellaneous diseases I decided that enough was enough. I could no longer deal with the financial and mental anguish along with the barrage of multiple medications, MRI’s, x-rays, and painful examinations. I decided it was time to forgo conventional medicines and have spent the last 15 years researching alternative ways of living. The elimination of manmade pharmaceuticals, processed foods, and toxic personnel care products has changed not only my physical and mental health, but my entire outlook on life all the while protecting the Mother Earth we all share!”

Let It Bee Natural is so unique because, although it is a high-quality product, it is still cost-effective and accessible to everyone. The LA Fashion Magazine tested samples of the massage oil, lip balm, and Beeosporin. The massage oil had a very pleasant minty scent. It was really refreshing. The lip balm went on really smoothly and felt very moisturizing. The Beeosporin is a great product that is also nice to use. This is definitely a product line to consider looking into.

Laboratoire Dermatologique is a product line based in France that creates make-up removing products as well as skin products. This brand is great for all types of skin, sensitive skin especially, because the products are made with the same type of water that is already naturally in the skin, which eliminates any bad reactions from occurring. The LA Fashion Magazine tried out the make-up removing wipes and the make-up removing liquid. We absolutely loved both of these products! They are both very efficient when removing makeup and will not leave you with an oily residue on your face.

Mennillo, originating in Montreal, Canada, is a swimwear line for women that consists of hand-made swimsuits. The owner created the brand when she realized that the swimsuits she was buying for herself at other stores would never fit her exactly how she wanted them to. Therefore, she decided to take matters into her own hands. At first, she would make these swimsuits for herself only, with no intention to make an entire brand out of them, but she soon gathered a team together and began making beautiful hand-made pieces that she now sells on her online store.
