Fitcover ‘The Story Behind Sweat Proof make Up’

From fitness models to the everyday girl working out and posting on Instagram the conversation around wearing makeup when working out today is the norm.

Though the concept of Fitcover started way before Instagram was a BIG THING.

Yep, thats right …

As most amazing products that are launched; they usually always come from the founder searching to find an answer to their own pain.

Nova Jane, Founder of Fitcover, a natural mineral-based makeup to wear when you workout…and not clog the pores.

Nova was an acne sufferer who also LOVES to work out. Like every acne suffer being embarrassed of their acne, they are always looking at how they can fix it OR cover it up.

Though the more Nova covered it up, the worst it got. Especially when she was training at the gym.

Until one day it dawned on her ” Why isn’t there a mineral makeup that you can wear to the gym that ‘stays’ and doesn’t affect my skin”?

Today, Nova has built a huge following on Instagram, has a team of 6 staff helping pack and ship the Fitcover products all while she continues to build her workout makeup empire.

Fitcover is carving the way being the first in Australia to combine two massive markets together; ‘Health & Fitness’ and ‘Makeup’

In this interview, you’ll hear the journey of creating a new concept to the marketplace, all the way through to the importance of relying on your ‘gut’ even when everyone tells you it isn’t going to work.

Enjoy!

You can’t argue with her determination to make her story a success.

With a revenue of over $85 million in 2019, the company set a new high in 2019. That’s a $75 million rise since I did this interview in 2017 (wow, growth on steroids!).

And her goal is to reach $100 million in annual revenue by 2020. About 40% of that revenue now comes from overseas sales.

Showpo is focus is on being on-trend, affordable and providing exceptional customer service and fast delivery. Jane previously worked in corporate finance, but after returning from overseas travels, couldn’t adjust back to cubicle life and quit her job to start her own business.

Her first business failed, however, it was a stepping stone to building Showpo to where it is today. What started off with a laptop and 2 shelves of clothing in her parents’ garage in September 2010, through being disruptive in the retail and social media space has made, Showpo now a well-known and loved clothing store for girls around the world.

Jane has also recently co-founded a business group encouraging and supporting female entrepreneurship. With the cheeky name “Like-Minded Bitches Drinking Wine” this group has now 147.5K  fans on Facebook and hosts monthly free events to promote women in business.
