I've had an idea for a couple of months. I would like to start a cosmetic company that donates the majority of profits to a charity that relocates Christians who are being persecuted for their beliefs. I'm 17, obviously no background in business. My question to you all is: If you came across a company like this that produced quality cosmetics for a reasonable price, would you be more or less likely to consider purchasing? Any insight, opinions or advice is welcomed and appreciated.

P.S. This post isn't about religion, race, denominations, spiritual belief or lack there of. I am merely seeking advice and helpful tips from anyone! (:

I actually have to look into that. Especially like name rights and product names and stuff like that.

I'm not too worried about it right now. If this were to become a serious consideration, I still have to go through at least two years of cosmetic chemistry training, business school, and possibly cosmetology school!

I would be less likely to be honest. that being said if it is your dream you should always follow your dreams, I just personally would not want to mix my business with any religious affiliation.

A company's religious affiliation, or lack of will is not the determining factor if I am considering buying products. As long as the quality is worth the price, I'm interested.

As long as its a quality product for a fair price then supporting a worthy charity would just be icing on the cake. Although I prefer to give to charity that helps out locally.
