‘Being honest with each other allowed us to evolve’
MARGO MARRONE HAS MIXED NATURAL BALMS FOR HER DAUGHTER ROXY FROM THE DAY SHE WAS BORN. NOW, THE DUO BRING WELLNESS AND SPIRITUALITY TOGETHER
Imagine enjoying working with your family so much that one collaborative enterprise just isn’t enough? This is exactly where Margo Marrone, founder of The Organic Pharmacy, and her daughter, Roxy, recently found themselves. Having launched House of Roxy
– a spiritual wellness platform offering everything from collagen-boosting powders to monthly manifesting workshops – during the pandemic, the pair are currently busy preparing for the autumn launch of their next beauty-meets-wellness venture. This is a project they’re remaining tight-lipped about, but one that promises to bring them even closer. ‘We founded House of Roxy together and we’ve developed a lot of the products together, but it was very much driven by me as a means to bring a little magic into everyday life,’ explains Roxy. ‘With this new project, though, we’ve been properly intertwined from the start! Lots of back and forth and being really honest with each other has allowed it to evolve. It’s been really exciting.’ Roxy has inherited her mother’s work ethic and appreciates
how lucky she is to have Margo’s wealth of business experience on tap; meanwhile, Margo defers to Roxy’s social media nous and Gen-z marketing skills. ‘We learn a lot from each other,’ says Margo. Then, somewhere in the middle are all the things they know and love equally that make the working relationship so solid. ‘Despite our age gap, we really enjoy the same things: clothes, food, rituals, wellbeing, a detox!’ explains Margo. These interests and differences have all been poured into the new venture: an evolution of House of Roxy that maximises Margo’s decades of ingredient knowledge and spiritual understanding with Roxy’s wellness expertise. What precisely will that look like? ‘All I’ll say is, in my opinion, wellness without spirituality isn’t complete,’ says Margo. Beautymeets-wellness 2.0 incoming…
