BROWNSVILLE, Texas (ValleyCentral) — Wanting more in a world shut down, a college student with a love for makeup launched a beauty business during the pandemic.
Victoria Lynn Valenzuela, 21, is the owner of GlamFlutterLashes, a cosmetic shop.
Valenzuela is a full-time college student, studying to earn a degree in teaching while running a small business in her home.
As many in the pandemic searched for answers in a world unknown, Valenzuela found herself wanting more from her everyday passion.
I thought to myself, I need to be more productive. Doing my makeup for taking a couple pictures on instagram wasn’t enough. I can’t go out. So I started researching and then ordered my first batch of lashes and I sold out. So now I make more products!

GlamFlutterLashes offers a variety of products including handmade cosmetics such as lip gloss, lip serums, eyebrow serums, and other beauty products.
Although the world has found a new norm, Valenzuela continues to find joy in the business.
Now that everything is basically back to normal, I still find it as my hobby to get away. If I’m stressed about something, I will sit at my desk and start filming videos and make products.

With the “love for makeup” Valenzuela plans to grow her business further, hoping to one day own a boutique.
It’s something that I really enjoy, I don’t think I will ever stop doing it.
