Teen who started a lip balm business with just £25 is set to make £150k this year

WHEN straight A student Rose Dyson told her family she didn't want to go to university, they were shocked.

But four years on, Rose never imagined she could be earning six figures from the lucrative venture, having also won a series of impressive young entrepreneur awards, too."It's what I love and it doesn't feel like a job."It hasn't been without its challenges though. I went into a networking event and someone asked me who's daughter I was and who I belonged to. No one realised I was there for my business.

Not only was Rose turned down for Dragons' Den due to her age, she often works 16-hour days, seven days a week."I get in at 8am and am usually in the shop until 6ish. In the evenings I'll be on my laptop going through my emails till late."They love it, my really close friends have seen it from the start, they're so proud and supportive.
