STARTUP STORY
Nowadays, technology has become more advanced so why shouldn't it be used for finding the right skincare products? This question is the foundation of the Glamate startup.
After completing her Master's in Computer Science, Gayathri worked in a telecommunication company in the US and in United Health care, as a business analyst consultant. After that, she moved back to India and started her own startup.
After moving back from the US, it was difficult for her to find her skincare routine from the products available in India using the trial and error method, then it struck her that technology can be used for finding the right beauty care items. She pitched this thought to her senior Vignesh Charllo from Masters. Then, they both started this venture - Glamate.
Once they launched it, they did organic marketing. The startup is also associated with reliable retailers and a myriad of skincare brands. They have got incredible responses from people all over. In the next few months, she wants to extend the marketing. Apart from customizing products for one particular person, they are also doing a cost comparison of a particular beauty item.

Before this venture, they thought of maintaining our own inventory and shipping the products, but it turned out to be difficult. They thought that there are so many recognized companies from which they tend to purchase the product, so Gayathri wanted to both save consumer's money and encourage the brand to directly buy the products. Each and every day a new brand is coming out. So that can confuse an individual. That's where Glamate comes into being pointing out to a person what product one requires for their skin type.
In the future, They want Glamate to grow and reach more and more people, and add a dermatologist consultation, and start their own line of beauty products. Both the founders are Masters in Data Science, who manages the algorithm, mainly take care of the website. There are other freelancers who work at Glamate.
Take that first move, everything will come in place.
