First 1# Diva blog.....the Truth behind Nails, Make up, Beauty and me
This will be my first real blog. Having a little writers block at the moment, but just give me a few seconds.
I'm a Latina and I am really that typical Latina when I start talk or write the only moment that I will stop is for some icecream :p
But sincs last year July (2016) I started my own business. I'm the proud owner of Divaliciouss!
After following some courses and getting all my strength and pride, courage I went to the Chambers of Commerce here in the Netherlands. Went in and signed up!
Was so happy that day....and then what?!
How to start a business? How do I get clients? Marketing...what is that?!
And what is a niche???
I had so many questions and everybody around me had an answer, besides the right one for me.
I started with another name and my niche was women above 40 years.
But pretty quick realized that it was not the right target group for me.
So back to the table and started thinking what do I want. What do I want to contribute to this World?
What are my goals??
After listening to some Tony Robbins recordings and having a good conversations with friends and people who already made it in the business world I changed the whole concept op my business.
I just love what I do. My targetgroup is little girls from 3 years to women and I don't care what age.
I also do nails and make up for Transgenders and Travestites (hopefully spelled correct). For the ones who struggle putting on make up for the first time and want to change their look.
A lot of people think make up and sculped nails are all fake. But for me it's just an extention of who I am. I love life! I love to laugh and obsessed with glitters :p
Make up is fo me not a mask but it puts accent on my strong futures of my face like my lips and my eyes. Anddddd it's much cheaper then plastic surgery hahaha. Just kidding...I love the shape of my face. I just like to play with colors and different looks. But no matter what kind of make up I wear or nails I am who I am.
Like me or not....your choice.
And this is also the message that I give my clients....please be yourself! You deserve it and you ow it to yourself to feel good, be happy and sparkle more.
And I soooo love what I do! When I my clients or models react and they are happy with the look (please no tears...the make up!! :p ) , but their reaction is priceless!!!
Here some examples and yes got their promission to post their picture here.
Tis last one is my grandmother. My darling Vovozinha...she is just wonderfull! This woman has thought me so much about a lot! I am a better woman, wife, mother, human because of her.
When I did her make up she cried...I cried allong but more because of the fresh make up I applied :p
But she was so happy with the look and she kissed me, hugged me so much! She thanked me and said that she feels sorry for herself and regrets so much that she hasn't done some things that she wanted to do when she was younger because of our family and their values. And scared of what people might say.
She said that I am going further at the point where she stopped.
This is the main reason why I am doing everything is for my daughters. I want to give them a better future, a better foundation then I've got from my mother. They just deserve the best in this World!!!
So that's why I am always learning, taking courses, practicing even when I am dead tired. My girls are my why!
I really really love what I do! I enjoy it and when I am working time flies so quickly!
And I can do so much and I know now how creative I am. I can crochet and make also hair accessories. Will put some examples below.
The message from me to you and my clients and future clients.....please dare to be you! You are beautiful and do what you love. And wear what you want and what makes you comfortable.
Let people talk. Don't give any attention to the negativity.
You are stronger then that. You are magnificent and please show that to the World! There is only one you in this World so shine babe!!
But for now I am going offline. It's vacation time here in the Netherlands. And I have to do my own nails. I am participating in a International Nailart contest on Instagram.
LOVEEEE IT!!!! :D
For now have a wonderful day/evening/night!
Big hug from the Netherlands
