Elizabeth , thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Let’s kick things off with your mission – what is it and what’s the story behind why it’s your mission?
GlitznGlamz Cosmetics was created with the mission to provide safe, pigmented and luxurious cosmetics into the makeup community. All products are handmade with the desire to have products anyone of any skin type can love. Through shine and dazzle GlitznGlamz is able to empower women with skin loving cosmetics.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers
Ever walk into a store and immediately go into the makeup aisle? I used to love swatching and playing with colors, however I realized something was missing from the vegan products. My name is Elizabeth Palomino and I created GlitznGlamz Cosmetics to share pigmented products everyone can find comfort in. I seen first hand the lack of safe and cruelty free makeup. The more “natural” alternatives were dull and had little pigmentation. As a professional makeup artist I didn’t want to use unsafe products on my clients but I wanted shimmer dazzle and everything nice without the harmful ingredients. I created a handmade vegan line that offers multiple shades for everyone and all skin types with ingredients the skin enjoys. My most favorited products by customers are the pressed glitters, highlighters and lip gloss. I specialize in making the products comfortable and best of yet Glamorous. Endless looks can be created by artists or beginners. The GlitznGlamz products are created to inspire, push creativity and help boost self confidence through glam and beauty. I like to remind my supporters that I am your typical stay at home mom with dreams and desires. Anyone can simply create a beautiful future the same way they can create a viral makeup look. The possibilities are endless when you are chasing your dreams, and being different is not so bad. I love to encourage our community to create, inspire and never stop!
Are there any books, videos, essays or other resources that have significantly impacted your management and entrepreneurial thinking and philosophy?
As you grow being an entrepreneur you value knowledge that is given to you. I love to read certain books to keep me motivated and on track. Some of the most impacting books I’ve read is “Rich Dad Poor Dad” by Robert Kiyosaki, “Financial Peace Revisited” by Dave Ramsey, “Sell like Crazy” by Sabri Suby. It’s highly important to visualize your financial stance in the future and where you see yourself in 3-5 years. These 3 books have really impacted on how I view everything. Having a plan and a budget can change your life.
Any insights you can share with us about how you built up your social media presence?
Social media impacts business my business so much. I was unfortunately hacked and lost 22k of followers that took me so long to build over the years. However, starting fresh with a new page has really helped my engagement. It doesn’t matter the number of followers your page says, if you are staying true to yourself. I have learned the best way to build an audience is to not be afraid of just being you! Your uniqueness will stand you out from your competitors and your supporters will love to see it. Social media has so much potential for any business to grow.
