    Confidence is So Much More Than a Dress Size – It’s a Vibe

    As Monique Parker a highly successful Marketing Coach posted on Facebook recently “Confidence is a Vibe”.  Monique has built her brand  which is unique, vibrant and completely Monique Parker.  I saw Monique’s post on the very same morning that I was thinking about business and how most people who are in business ARE the business.  The personal branding carries through and I am a strong believer in your own personal style emerging all the time, constantly through your business branding.

    Confidence is a feeling,  It is an aura that surrounds you and  is an integral part of your being.  Nothing gives others more confidence initially in your business more than YOU the business owner having confidence and pride in how you look and present yourself.

    Monique is a great example of how you can be unique, confident and successful with your own style.  

    This sort of confident style does not happen overnight but it is achievable for absolutely everyone.  It is all a matter of knowing that you have your own style and carry it well… knowing that YOU are unique and there is no-one, absolutely no-one out there who is (as Dr Suess says) “You-er than you”.

    Make yourself memorable.  Have confidence in your own style and don’t wait until you feel you have permission or are at a certain age to portray that style.   There is no better time than right now to be who you want to be, dress the way you would like to dress.  It has nothing to do with dress size, or so many other things.  It is that powerful vibe of CONFIDENCE.  Plus when you are confident there are so many reasons to smile and that glowing smile is a big part of that Confidence with Style.

  • Winner of our Style Day Competition

    Winner of our Style Day Competition

    Taking Time Out Especially for YOU

    We had an amazing day with the Winner of our “Style Day Especially for YOU” Competition.  Lyndi MacRae rose to the challenge and sent in a video to the Beauty Glow Facebook Page and shared her reasons for wanting to win the competition.  In these busy times it is too easy to put ourselves on the back burner and right at the end of our list.  The aim of this competition was to …

    (1) Encourage people to really step out of their comfort zone and feel that joy of achieving something they are not used to doing

    (2) Take a whole day to explore what is possible – see themselves in a different light and step away from the “busy-ness” of life for a day.  Lyndi understands the value of investment in time like this.

    It was a busy full on day but during the time Lyndi had …

    1. Full Colour Analysis with regard to clothing and accessories
    2. Discussion of lifestyle and wardrobe functionality
    3. Body shape discussion and ideas of clothing that would suit body shape plus lifestyle and style personality
    4. Makeup application and tips were given on how to apply the makeup
    5. Shopping trip to look at some outfits and ideas which suited Lyndi’s body shape and colouring – clothes bought were neutrals as a good base to add colours from her swatch
    6. Visit to a shoe store for some quality comfortable shoes with style  suitable for various occasions including business engagements 
    7. Visit to the hairdresser to colour, conditioning treatment and trim with attention on future management of hair for optimum hair health for the style she wished to have
    8. Photo session afterwards from Sumico so that Lyndi could see the transformation and share her special style day 
    9.  total $2.070 in value including vouchers for clothing, shoes, hairstyling, Photography Session Gift Certificate, PR Session with a publicity expert and a Naturopathic Health Assessment

    The benefits of reaching out and then accepting what is offered are sometimes not realised until quite some time afterwards.  Conversations during the day, questions asked and information provided combined with a full on day of Colour and Style Analysis, shopping and hair appointment – not to mention having photos taken and trying on different outfits – all took Lyndi far away from what she usually does in a day.  

    How refreshing though to do something that you do not usually do?  

    How rejuvenating to think of a different way to dress or accessorise?  

    Sometimes it is those little tweaks or wearing the right colours to bring out the beautiful blue in the eyes or  lovely natural skin.  Congratulations to Lyndi MacRae on stepping up and entering the competition.  There had to be a personal challenge as the prize really was amazing.  Taking on that challenge and creating the video is a reward in itself –  Lyndi absolutely blossomed in those hours achieved through her own volition and willingness to learn more about herself .  There are endless possibilities to be achieved when you gain confidence and renewed vitality by taking some time out especially for YOU. 

    Contributors to the Style Day Competition were Moana Robinson from Beauty Glow, Sumico Web & Graphic Design, Passion 4 Health  Hair Design by Lou, Designs to Cherish, The White House Fashions, Sole Sister Shoes, Publicity Genie AND Lyndi MacRae – the “Unstick Chick” (look her up – Lyndi is all about making the “invisible visible”  and is currently working on some great tutorials; Lyndi has marketing solutions to  help Entrepreneurs develop a quality user experience)

    A Personal Stylist Can Help with Wardrobe AND Makeup

    Makeup is something which some women love to apply and others are not so keen.  Do you feel irritated when you go to apply makeup every day or for a special occasion and arent sure that your foundation is quite the right colour – or your eye shadow isnt enhancing your eyes but doing the opposite.   So maybe sometimes you just don’t bother with makeup? The best way to gain confidence with applying makeup is to seek assistance from a professional stylist or makeup artist.. Every season that comes around your skin changes due to weather conditions and/or tanning or losing your tan. Every year that goes by we need to re-evaluate our makeup and skincare.

    A personal stylist is a person who advises you on clothing for your body shape and personal colouring accessories and make-up. It is a recognized profession. Some people are of the opinion that a stylist only handles the wardrobe garments and nothing else. However they do cover every aspect of image from hair styling to makeup, clothing to footwear and accessories.. A personal stylist is a professional certified from a recognized academy and is there to help you with so much.

    The best base for a makeup is a smooth healthy complexion. Here are some tips to get you started:

    1. Remember sunscreen especially in the summer months.
    2. Don’t forget to use cleanse, tone and moisturise morning and night with quality skincare products to get flawless and smooth skin.
    3. Go for a light shade while selecting lipsticks for a fresh and natural look to your lips.
    4. If you are unsure about wearing makeup you can use a bronzer instead of blush; it will help your skin to maintain a sun-kissed glow.
    5. Find out from your stylist or makeup artist how to highlight your eyelids but usually two or three colours are going to give you the most contour,
    6. Eyeliner can be worn in different shades. like deep warm brown or soothing blue color.

    Once you have hired the services of a personal stylist you need not worry about special occasions or events whether it is a wedding ceremony, business conference or simply a get together. You can get a different look according to the type of occasion. Your Personal Stylist can help you select the best outfit for the occasion along with the makeup and accessories. They can also give you advice on hairstyles depending on the outfit selected for the occasion.

    Create your own style statement and gain confidence in wearing the colours, shape, style in garments, footwear and accessories plus the skincare and makeup that best suits you and your lifestyle. Contact Moana from Beauty Glow for confidential, friendly and professional advice.
