After a Stage 4 cancer diagnosis, Anna Warner Mayes founded a lipstick company as a way to bring a little joy to other cancer fighters/survivors and to remind them that they were not alone. Since her first diagnosis in 2008 to her 4th recurrence, she used lipstick to communicate many moods and feelings and wanted to help others do the same. Her product connects people not only to her story but to the power of their own, and each purchase offers the opportunity to give to someone who is dealing with cancer. She is a fantastic speaker, but also offers gift packages, including local artist collabs on limited edition items that make perfect attendee and speaker gifts!
