Be it a side hustle or those taking the plunge (or have no choice but take the plunge) into starting a business and putting in the hard work. One such business is Bi-Kai Cosmetics (pronounced Bee-Ky).\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EI found out about Bi-Kai through a friend who introduced me to the individual behind the new cosmetic brand, Melrose Boyce. In this post we find out how he got into the business of cosmetics, his newest product about to be launched and his advice for entrepreneurs.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cb\u003ETell me about yourself?\u003C\/b\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EI was born in the village of Tyrelle's and pretty much lived there all my life. As a matter of fact where I live now is exactly where I grew up. I work for the government teaching Chemistry to upper form students. I am married for 14 years and we have 3 children, three dogs and 4 cats. I am a Christian and enjoy music. I am also a musician and play several instruments mainly piano and bass guitar.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cb\u003EWhere did you get the idea for Bi-Kai?\u003C\/b\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThough I didn't have this particular name then, the idea for a cosmetics company started in 1994\/1995 when in a chemistry class on organic compounds, I discovered how they made aromatic compounds. And through further research I learned that this is the foundation of modern perfumery.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EI started researching more but discovered that to get that started it is really expensive. So I began to experiment with extracting scents from many of the fragrant plants that we have. I made some scents and people liked it. I went on to work at the government Chemistry Lab, Dunbars where I researched more and found that it was cheaper to start with lotions.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EMade my first lotion in 1998 out of beeswax. However to bring a product to the market it must be properly preserved. By that time I was sold on making all natural products however all the preservatives at the time were synthetic. So I kinda shelved the idea for more than one reason.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EAbout 5 years ago I started looking at it again and found that a new company came on stream that was now making natural preservatives. So after many years of R\u0026amp;D here we are.....that's the loooong version\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EAnd many of the preservatives still in use today are known skin irritants! But its the lesser of two evils I guess\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe name came form combining to \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=Taino\u0026amp;ie=utf-8\u0026amp;oe=utf-8\u0026amp;aq=t\u0026amp;rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official\u0026amp;client=firefox-a\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ETaino\u003C\/a\u003E words, Bi means life and kai means nourishment.

How were you able to juggle developing the line and all your other commitments?\u003C\/b\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EI think perhaps that's why it took so long. It requires not only an investment of time but also money. So whenever I could divert funds from regular expenses and commitments I would buy small batches of the ingredients to experiment. Work on formulation...\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ETime wise, I am a night person so if I couldn't find the time in the day, due to time with the fam or anything else, there is always the night.

And having bought products that are in both lower and higher price brackets the truth is that they just don't work. Our product moisturizes the skin for longer periods of time. It makes the skin soft and supple. It also offers entry level protection from the UV rays of the sun. I say entry level as one can certainly be more protected but it offers basic protection from harmful UV rays. In keeping the skin adequately moisturized, it also reduces the development of premature aging. There are 8 moisturizers in our lotion and not just any 8, but 8 that work together to uncover softer, younger looking skin.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EAlso whether you have dry or oily skin, the skin still needs to be nourished\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cb\u003EYou mentioned that you tested products on the market, can you name a few?\u003C\/b\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EMy tests have been basic as in how they work on my skin and my family's. In addition I have also solicited reviews from other individuals about how the products work for them. Products like Jergens, Vaseline intensive. There are products on the higher end of the price scale that do work however none are 100% natural\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cb\u003EIn your product testing what are some of the comments you keep hearing about your product?\u003C\/b\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWell, I started with my wife who has been a tremendous support and partner in this venture, and who also has dry skin mainly her feet. She had often resorted to pure Vaseline to keep her feet from drying out. First test with the product, just one application in the morning before work she didn't require further application for the day. Other persons report the same thing.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/d236bkdxj385sg.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/black-woman-with-headscarf-header3.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/d236bkdxj385sg.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/black-woman-with-headscarf-header3.jpg\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EOther comments are, in addition to being really moisturizing, it is also not greasy at all\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EOthers have said it makes their skin really soft.

So it really boils down to two things the choice of ingredients and also the synergy of those ingredients. This makes the biggest difference.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIt takes a while to determine what will work with what to give the properties you want. And when you are working with 8 different ingredients it can get complicated\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cb\u003ESo a lot of thought went into formulation of the product. Where do you get your ingredients?\u003C\/b\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe ingredients are sourced from a company in Miami that imports from the various suppliers. I wanted and still want to use Caribbean suppliers but during formulation the quality that I got was not desirable.
