Beauty Tips to Help You Capture the Crown 

By: Liz Everett

From your on-stage competition, to your personal appearances, never forget that 90% of your communication is not verbal, it is visual. Being the total package competitor means that you have to be strong in every area of competition, from clinching the interview...to great on-stage technique. But it is your personal presentation, while you are competing, that will give you that undeniable essence  every winner possesses!

I came up with my Top 5 Beauty Tips and Techniques after careful thought about what most of your top competitors have in common. One undeniable quality that I see over and above presentation is attention to detail in every area of competition. Apply these tips to every area of competition at your next pageant  to ensure that your overall presentation is consistent with the image you would like to portray to the judges.

 Top 5 Beauty Tips and Techniques to Help You Capture the Crown:

1. Identify the products that work for you!

    Skin and hair are your top priorities when it comes to your initial   

    impression with the judges.Be sure to have a back-up beauty kit filled with 

    the products that work best for your skin and hair. 

2. Seek Professional Advice

    Please do not just read the latest issue of a fashion magazine and think you 

    have an answer as to what you need to wear, look like, or the image you    

    seek to create.  From beauty products to body lines, it would be in your best    

    interest to have a professional opinion from an image or pageantry   

    consultant you trust to guide you. Professional advice should be your first 

    step, not your last resort.  

3. Give a Little

When it comes to beauty you may have to get a little outside your comfort zone to accommodate the changes you may need to make. Do not judge yourself by normal standards of beauty, instead imagine the possibilities! 

4. Gloss, Gloss and More Gloss

This one is simple ..... Get over it and gloss it up! A little lip gloss never hurt anybody! 

5. Define with a Line

Do not be afraid of eye liner. The saying goes that the eyes are the windows to the soul so make sure that you give the judges beautiful windows. Captivating eyes are a way to capitalize on your stage time.
