The Beaute Within – Week 1: Dorothy – Finding Home

You don’t have to be swept away by a cyclone to feel lost.
Sometimes life just… spins. Deadlines, dinner, teenagers, the never-ending list of things to do. Somewhere in the swirl, you realise you’ve misplaced you.

Dorothy’s story has always been about finding her way home, but lately I’ve been thinking maybe it’s really about remembering who she was before the whirlwind. “Home” isn’t just four walls. It’s the quiet exhale when you stop performing and just be.

This week marks the beginning of The Beaute Within, a month-long journey exploring heart, mind, courage, and home. We start with Dorothy, a symbol of grounding, gratitude, and that moment when we click our heels and whisper, I’m right where I need to be.

The Look:

A classic French glow with a ruby twist.
Soft eyes, flushed cheeks, and that timeless red lip. I’ve used Blu-Red LipSense with Silver Rose BlushSense. Simple. Real. Beautiful.

The Craft:

Blue gingham fabric and ruby-red buttons scattered across my workspace. Little reminders that creativity is home for me. The steady heartbeat beneath the noise.

So wherever you are today, may you find a piece of home within yourself. Click your heels, take a breath, and come home to you.
