Family builds beauty brand from daughter’s idea and shared health concerns
Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work
Tiffany Myers of an unnamed location began a search for safe beauty products for her daughters after receiving a Lyme disease diagnosis seven years ago.
She found existing “clean” options unappealing to her daughter, Sydney, who at age 10 proposed creating her own line of fun, safe beauty products. Tiffany and Sydney collaborated on the idea, with Tiffany researching manufacturing and ingredients while Sydney focused on design and fragrances.
The family moved to a rural area in 2020 and enrolled their daughters in Laurel Springs School, an online program. This flexible schedule allowed Sydney to balance schoolwork with developing Glimmer Wish. In 2021, Tiffany’s husband, Byron Myers, left his medical technology company and joined Glimmer Wish as CEO, enabling Sydney to maintain the title of founder while remaining a minor.
Recently, Byron and Sydney Myers appeared on Shark Tank with Tiffany, securing a $200,000 investment for a 20% stake in Glimmer Wish from Lori Greiner and Kendra Scott, along with a royalty agreement. The Myers family views the business as a success not just for its products, but for the opportunity it provides to work together and overcome health challenges.
