What Happened to Shine Like A Celeb After Dragons’ Den?
Shine Like A Celeb appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2015, Series 13 Episode 4. The business was a sparkle body cream. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Ali Mustapha walked into the Den in 2015 with a sparkle body cream. They were asking for £22,000.

The Deal
No deal was made. The Dragons weren’t persuaded to invest, and Ali Mustapha left the Den without backing.
