We had the good fortune of connecting with Merci Chrisette and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Merci, other than deciding to work for yourself, what else do you think played a pivotal role in your story?
This is a great question! I would have to say the single most important decision I made that contributed to my success is eliminating, and cutting off all toxic energy whether that is from past family members, or friends that find it hard to support me. I think it is very important to rid all negative energy out of your life when you are starting something new, and positive so that it can flourish.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
M.V.M beauty is my brand focused on creating beautiful makeup products that not only can enhance your physical appearance, but cater to your soul as well. I always like to say when you look good you feel good, and the goal is to have those who are interested in buying our products feel amazing!

Entrepreneurship is not an easy journey, and I learn new things every day, but I am very grateful for all the hurdles that I had to get through in order to be where we are as a brand to reach the hearts and hands of those who need us.


Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
New York is a vibe! If I had a friend visiting I would have to say the piers are lovely! I love looking at the water it’s just so peaceful, and definitely a place I would recommend.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I would like to use this segment to give God all the praise, and glory! I literally was on my own when I started my business with no family support, and with help of a few friends that I love very much I have to say that God always surrounded me with his love and never let me go. For that I am very thankful to the most high!
