fans were left emotional after a budding entrepreneur broke down in tears after receiving multiple offers of support. Millie Flemington-Clare was pitching her inclusive make-up brand, Human Beauty.
Launched in 2020, the makeup therapy palette can be used by anyone with any disability. If bought from the website, liquid confidence mascara can also be applied in any direction upon the eye.
Millie was hoping for some financial offers from the Dragons to help boost her start-up, but when she began to talk about her figures and her experience in the beauty industry, the moguls started to withdraw.
She also voiced how she needed help with social media to grow the commercial side of her brand, which allowed Steven Bartlett to say that he was willing to invest his time to teach her about social media marketing.
Peter Jones and Touker Suleyman also withdrew their financial offers but instead gave their advice to Millie, with Peter saying, “You’ve won today.”
