While we may all realize that confidence is important, sometimes it’s hard to come by.

It’s definitely one of those things that you have to work at building. For many, it’s difficult to maintain as our busy minds get in the way and sabotage our self-perception. In our society, there is mounting pressure for women to boldly step out and claim themselves for who they are. But the path to self-love isn’t always an easy one. Sometimes ’embracing your imperfections’ is easier said than done. And other times, dealing with your imperfections means changing them completely. There’s likewise no shame in admitting that to feel good on the inside you must look good on the outside too.

Meet 50-year-old Tori from Iowa.

She knew something was missing from her life, she could feel it. She lacked the self-confidence to share her art with the world, one of her biggest passions.

Her solution? To book an appointment with The Makeover Guy.

You’ve probably heard of The Makeover Guy before, he’s also known as Christopher Hopkins.

His uploads of incredible beauty transformations have been gaining traction across YouTube as people watch him deliver stunning results. His viral videos are proving that he’s masterful at the art of pulling beauty out from within people. One trip to his Appearance Studios will make you feel like you’re in the best hands for the job.

Needless to say, Hopkins is a beauty expert.

He continuously helps his clients realize their full potential, and stresses that it’s never too late to feel fabulous. As he helps his clients look wonderful from the outside, he methodically works inward, improving their self-esteem too.

Tori knew in her heart that Hopkins was the man for the job.

And by the time he was done with her, she was undoubtedly a picture of grace and glamour!

In her makeover video, Tori reveals to the camera her struggle with self-esteem.

She illustrates her displeasure with her appearance.

“I haven’t had the courage to really take my art into the world and be open to criticism from other people. So yeah, I just want more freedom.”

And this is all it takes for Hopkins to usher her into a bold and beautiful makeover.

He swoops in and sees Tori from the inside out, and is happy to bring forward the beautiful woman that he sees. When it comes to middle-aged to older women, Hopkins is truly masterful. This age group is somewhat his forte and he’s even published a book entitled “Staging Your Comeback: A Complete Beauty Revival for Women Over 45.”

Tori lets Hopkins work his magic on her.

“I’m ready to walk through life and say ‘I really don’t care what other people say.’ It’s what I want and what I feel – what I feel moved to do.”

And with that, Hopkins and his team go to work on Tori in her makeover video, working to honor her “desire for freedom of movement and a hairstyle that better reflected her inner artist.” His makeover included adding color to Tori’s face as well as giving her some “snappy highlight”.

The results are unbelievable.

As Tori faces the mirror for the first time as a new woman, surrounded by her loved ones, she can hardly believe what she sees. The end result is a heartwarming, tearful, and joyful moment as all become smitten with awe. If one thing is for certain, it’s that her confidence is through the roof.
