Is how Gabriel DeSantino would answer my first question “What drove you towards the beauty industry”?

I knew from this answer that interviewing the

CEO/President of Gabriel Cosmetics, Inc. one of the top all natural cosmetic lines in the United States would be both insightful and inspirational.

I’ve known you for some time now and I know that family is something that is paramount to you, How did your upbringing help create “Gabriel’?

Growing up I had to be responsible and self-sufficient in my actions. I was always careful to make the best choices possible and it’s still a process.

I don’t think it ever ends.

Success is never an easy road especially success in your caliber, what is a daily challenge that you have to face?

This is the key to my success.
