Amrit Beauty Collection

Our little shop is over in Vijay Nagar Colony in Jabalpur. We are situated right across from the Union Bank ATM, which is quite helpful because people see us when they go to get their cash. It’s a small place where we keep things like bindis, hair pins, bangles, and some basic makeup items. It isn't a high-end boutique, just a local collection for the ladies in the neighborhood. Ahinsa Chowk is just a short walk away, so we get a fair amount of foot traffic. I like to keep the bangles arranged by color in the glass cases, though they always get mixed up when people try them on. The shop has a large mirror on the wall that’s a bit spotted with age. Jabalpur can be quite sleepy in the afternoons, so I often find myself dusting the shelves or chatting with the lady who sells vegetables outside. We don't have a big staff, it’s mostly just me here. I try to stock the brands that people ask for most, like the regular creams and powders. Sometimes a bride-to-be comes in with her mother to pick out matching accessories, and those are the best days. It’s a nice, simple business. We don't have any bright neon signs, just a small board and the things we sell. It’s a quiet life in the colony, and I’m happy with how things are going every day.
