We were incredibly impressed by her story and HAD to make Margo a Statement Maker! Check out our interview with Margo below!<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Honestly Margo\" href=\"http:\/\/www.honestlymargo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9678 aligncenter\" title=\"Honestly Margo\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/static.customizedgirl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/lip-balms.png\" alt=\"Honestly Margo\" width=\"500\" height=\"669\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Tell us a little about yourself. Who is Margo?<\/h3>\n<p><em>Well I&#8217;m a 13 year old girl that likes to hang out with her friends and go to the movies. I have some great friends that are really supportive! I also LOVE to play soccer! Soccer is a big part in my life. I love fashion and being on Pinterest lol. I&#8217;m a normal girl that likes to have fun and hang out! I love 24 on fox!! MY FAV SHOW EVER!!!!!! I also really love beauty and taking care of myself. I guess this is me!<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>What is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.honestlymargo.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Honestly Margo<\/a>?<\/h3>\n<p><em>Honestly Margo is the lip balm company that I created when I was 12. When I was younger (younger than I am now) I would always try to make things and sell them to my friends and people I knew so when I thought of lip balm I knew it was perfect. I came up with my natural amazing formula and I sold them to my friends! They LOVVEED them so my mom suggested that we take it bigger and that is exactly what we did!<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>How did you come up with the idea? Why all natural lip balm?<\/h3>\n<p><em>I tried to sell everything when I was younger from cat collars to an online art shop. I have always loved beauty and taking care of myself so lip balm was perfect since it had no color and I could wear it everyday. I think things that are natural and healthy for us are good because there are so many things that are unhealthy that we use in our day to day life<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h3>Is it difficult balancing school, extracurriculars, running your own business, and still finding time to be a 13 year old? How do you manage? And what keeps you motivated to do it all?<\/h3>\n<p><em>If you organize your time and designate when you will be doing what it&#8217;s not very hard. Sometimes I&#8217;m exhausted from sports or school but you have to get your work done. You also have to prioritize. I always make sure I have my homework done and then I do Honestly Margo work. If you don&#8217;t put work into it, nothing will come out of it. To accomplish your dream you have to be willing to work.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Honestly Margo seems to just keep growing and growing! How many stores carry your lip balms now?<\/h3>\n<p><em>Currently we are in 24 stores and 4 states and growing. You can get a full list for the stores I&#8217;m in at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.honestlymargo.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">honestlymargo.com<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Where can we get some of your lip balms for ourselves?!<\/h3>\n<p><em>You can get my products in some stores in Oklahoma, Texas, New Jersey, and New York. BUT you can also get them at my website at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.honestlymargo.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">honestlymargo.com<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>What\u2019s next for you? Will you expand <a href=\"http:\/\/www.honestlymargo.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Honestly Margo<\/a> to include more beauty products?<\/h3>\n<p><em>Right now I don&#8217;t know what the future holds. Honestly Margo could expand or go into many other things. BUT I will be blogging VERRYYY soon so keep a look out for that!<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>You\u2019re such an inspiration. What advice do you have for any other girls or women who are considering starting their own business?<\/h3>\n<p><em>Thank you soooo much!! I advise girls to take chances and to believe in yourself. If you put in the work and believe in yourself you can accomplish your goals!<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Lastly, what is your favorite flavor? We think Fruity Colada sounds delicious!<\/h3>\n<p><em>Hmmmm&#8230;it&#8217;s a hard question because I love them all but my favorite has to be our new RUBY! I love the berry flavor and it&#8217;s so moisturizing like all the others!!<\/em><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.honestlymargo.com\/shop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Shop Honestly Margo&#8217;s lip balms<\/a>!<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Check out her <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.honestlymargo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">blog<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Shop\u00a0<a title=\"Honestly Margo's Customized Girl Storefront\" href=\"http:\/\/www.customizedgirl.com\/s\/honestlymargo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Honestly\u00a0Margo&#8217;s Customized Girl Storefront<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p><!-- AddThis Button BEGIN --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A little while back, we stumbled across Honestly Margo- a beauty business focusing on all-natural lip balms made from pure ingredients.
