2) Oxygen Boutique's Joanna Nicola.
Oxygen Boutique is a unique retail concept that has grown from extensive experience of the fashion industry and an intrinsic ability to identify the wardrobe requirements of women today. Realising there was a space for an accessible, yet fashion led store stocking unique, desirable and discreet labels that can be mixed and worn without the need for status or label flashing. Joanna launched Beauty over a year ago as she realised that her customers wanted more of a lifestyle and not just a dress. Beauty is booming for Oxygen Boutique right now and so excited about the future of building new and exciting brands.

3) Missfits Founder Tara Adlestone.
"I was always afraid of protein products, I either thought they would make me bulky or they were to be used as a meal replacement. If I'm honest, the whole topic was confusing and I just steered clear of protein supplements in any form. But as soon as I started to really understand the benefits of protein I realised brands should be empowering and educating women on why these products are so important for our bodies and everyday existence. So I tried to hunt down a brand that had all natural, honest, high quality protein products designed for women, but I couldn't find one for love nor money. And with that, MissFits was born, it's simple really, an honest protein brand with the best quality ingredients for women up and down the country to help power our everyday!"
4) Supernova's founder Laura Beckford.
Supernova Living was developed by ex-professional football player Jermaine Beckford, and his wife Laura, who grew up with a strong interest in health and wellness. They both felt that the current protein offering was lacking in innovation and so they began experimenting with organic, plant based proteins. They found that without the added artificial sweeteners they produced better results, had more energy, reduced stomach aches and bloating and found they recovered quicker from injuries. They decided to work with a Naturopathic Nutritionist who advised them to include adaptogens, specific vitamins and prebioitcs to make sure the Supernova Living formulas deliver the best possible results. Currently, Supernova offers a large range of advanced vegan protein powders to help enrich your mind and body.
