Founders of the new plant-based beauty line Iwilla Remedy, Selima Harleston Lust and Tami Lust are proud and excited to announce their 1st place win in the Brooklyn Public Library’s PowerUP! Business Plan Competition. This Brooklyn competition gives local entrepreneurs the opportunity to turn their business idea into a reality. The winner receives $15,000 in start-up capital to ignite their business and the ladies of Iwilla Remedy are honored to receive this year’s first place price.

Brooklyn Born, Produced & Proud

Tami and Selima, herbalists, wives and business partners, officially opened for business in their one bedroom apartment in 2012. Today, through a partnership with Brooklyn Community Services, a workshop supporting and employing adults with special needs, Iwilla Remedy independently manufactures packages and distributes its line.

Now, Selima and Tami are very proud to have received this local honor and award of $15,000 to put towards their growing all-natural Brooklyn-based beauty business, Iwilla Remedy. With Iwilla Remedy Selima and Tami are taking products that are typically full of harmful chemicals and, after much research and many formulations, offering all natural alternatives: 

I Love My Armpits Deodorant

My Skin Glows Cream

Smile Lip Balms

3 Body Oil Blends

Bug-Off Herbal Insect Repellent

All of Iwilla Remedy’s products have a wellness component to them - they heal, enliven, relieve, detoxify and rejuvenate. This is body care with a purpose, handcrafted in Brooklyn, with ingredients you know and at a price your wallet loves.
