POSITIVE vibes ONLY
Tough day? Welcome to your emergency mood boost, courtesy of beauty vlogger @mimi_missfit and Schwarzkopf. Because sometimes you just need to give yourself a pep talk
As a YouTuber, presenter and beauty devotee, @mimi_missfit has carved out a career and social media presence that’s all about straight-up, unapologetic positivity. If you’re one of her 100k+ followers, you’ll already know about her feelgood attitude to life. Whether she’s hosting a beauty tutorial or a documentary, or just providing some #MondayMotivation, her attitude is simple: slay harder.
And given that she says colour gives her confidence, it’s no surprise that her look is as bold as her personality. Getting creative with her hair and colouring her own wigs – pastel pink, baby blue, ruby red; you name it, Mimi’s rocked it – she’s become a style icon strictly on her own terms.
Fancy channelling some of her flair? Here are Mimi’s five rules for squeezing every bit of joy out of life…
1 Gratitude gives you perspective
“Take a moment to celebrate life’s wins – don’t just fixate on your goals. Appreciate how far you’ve already come and you’ll realise how much more you’ll achieve.”
2 Surround yourself with colour
“It lifts my mood and gives me confidence. My pink hair feels like I’m wearing a smile on my face.”
3 Confidence is seeing the best in yourself
“When I get scared or nervous, I put on my best wig and repeat my favourite words from RuPaul: ‘Remember who you are!’” 4 It’s OK to love a cheesy quote “They’re short, snappy and easy to remember. Store them away for when you need them.”
5 There’s power in being an optimist
“Positivity makes you braver and fuels your self-belief – it’s your weapon against self-doubt.”
