✨ **DAY 4/21 — GLOW-GETTER MODE** ✨

Four days in… how are we feeling, ladies? 💕🔥

Here’s your reminder: this 21-Day Level Up isn’t about becoming someone else.

It’s about **investing in the woman you already are.**

The woman who takes care of her body.
The woman who protects her energy.
The woman who drinks her water, moves her body and fuels herself well.
The woman who takes care of her skin.
The woman who sets goals — and actually keeps the promises she makes to herself.

Because the real glow-up starts **inside** and eventually everybody sees it on the outside. ✨

At Upstage Beauty, we’ve always believed beauty is bigger than what you see in the mirror. Confidence changes the way you walk into a room, run your business, show up for your family and pursue the life you want.

So for Day 4, ask yourself:

**What am I doing TODAY that my future self will thank me for?**

It doesn’t have to be huge. One workout. One healthy meal. One boundary. One skincare routine. One extra glass of water. One choice that says:

💕 **I am worth investing in.**

Keep going, Glow-Getters.

We’re only 4 days in… imagine how you’ll feel at 21. ✨

✨ **Wake Up Beautiful. Every. Single. Day.** ✨

Imagine waking up every morning with perfectly shaped brows, softly defined lips, or beautifully enhanced eyes—without reaching for your makeup bag.

Permanent makeup is about **enhancing your natural beauty**, not changing who you are.

At **Upstage Beauty**, every treatment is customized to complement your unique features, skin tone, and personal style, creating results that are soft, natural, and timeless.

Our permanent makeup services include:
🤎 Powder Brows
💋 Lip Blushing
✨ Eyeliner Enhancement

Whether you're looking to restore confidence, simplify your morning routine, or achieve a polished look every day, permanent makeup is an investment in yourself that lasts.

✔️ Customized to you
✔️ Smudge-proof & water-resistant
✔️ Long-lasting results
✔️ Saves time every morning

📩 Schedule your consultation today and let's create a look you'll love waking up to.

As we close out August, I’m choosing to look back with gratitude and forward with expectation.

Not every day was perfect. Not every plan went exactly as expected. But every win, every lesson, every challenge and every answered prayer brought us here. 🙏🏼

So today, I’m taking a moment to thank God for what WAS… while getting excited about what’s NEXT.

September feels like a fresh page. ✨

New goals.
New opportunities.
New habits.
New levels.

But the same faith. The same determination. And an even bigger purpose. 💕

At Upstage, we believe your glow is about so much more than what you see in the mirror. It’s taking care of your mind, body, skin and spirit — and becoming a little more of the woman God created you to be every single day.

So finish August strong, beautiful. 🌸
Release what needs to stay behind.

Give thanks for how far you’ve come.
And walk into September believing that better days are ahead.

☀️ New month. New opportunities. Same God. Bigger purpose.

Who’s ready for September with me? 💗

✨ THE STORY OF UPSTAGE BEAUTY ✨

Over 20 years ago, Upstage Beauty began with a girl, a dream, and a God-given passion.

The dream was never simply to make people look beautiful.
It was to help flip the light on inside every person who walked through the door. 💗

Ashley believed beauty was about connecting the inner glow with the outer glow—helping women care for their skin, build their confidence, recognize their worth, and leave feeling a little brighter than when they arrived.

Along the way, she became what she lovingly calls your “personal trainer for your skin.” Teaching clients that beautiful skin isn’t about chasing perfection—it’s about understanding it, strengthening it, nurturing it, and creating healthy habits that last.

What started in a treatment room grew into something so much bigger.

Ashley has written articles and books, been published in magazines, shared her voice on radio, educated others, built businesses, and walked international stages. Yet through every season, one thing has remained at the center:
Her faith. Her purpose. And her desire to serve. ✝️
Those who know Ashley know there’s a light she carries—and she will tell you that light comes from the Lord and the Holy Spirit.
Whether you share her faith or simply walk through the doors looking for great skin and a place to belong, you are welcomed and loved here.

Because at Upstage, treatments have never been just treatments.
They've changed skin.
They've restored confidence.
They've started conversations.
They've carried women through different seasons of life.

And somewhere along the way, many clients became friends for life.
More than 20 years later, the technology has evolved. The treatments have advanced. The vision has grown.
But the heart of Upstage Beauty hasn't changed.
Beauty. Wellness. Confidence. Faith. Community.

✨ Come be part of our story.

And maybe… let us become part of yours.

UPSTAGE BEAUTY
Glow from the inside out. 💕

The weekend is almost here, beauties… but don’t wait until Saturday to start taking care of YOU. 💗

Healthy skin is built in the little things we do consistently—hydration, nourishment, quality skincare, movement, rest and giving our skin what it needs to function at its best.

Your Thursday reminder:

✨ Drink the water.
✨ Cleanse your face tonight—even if you’re tired. 😉
✨ Feed your body nutrients that support your glow.
✨ Use skincare that works with your skin, not against it.
✨ And remember: consistency will always beat a quick fix.

That’s one of the reasons I love DermYoung. It fits perfectly into my philosophy at Upstage: we’re not just chasing pretty skin for the weekend—we’re supporting skin health, hydration and longevity so that beautiful glow becomes part of your lifestyle.

And ladies, the glow isn’t only coming from a bottle. ✨
What you feed your body, what you feed your mind, and what you feed your spirit eventually shows up on the outside.

So heading into this weekend, choose something that makes your future self proud.
Nourish her. Protect her peace. Take care of her skin. And let that woman GLOW. 👑💗

Beauty. Wellness. Confidence. From the inside out.

✨ **SKIN EDUCATION SERIES** ✨

**Hydrated skin and moisturized skin are NOT the same thing.**

One of the biggest misconceptions in skincare is thinking that a moisturizer alone creates healthy skin. The truth is, **hydration begins beneath the surface.**

At Upstage Beauty, one of my favorite treatments is the **DermYoung® Facelift Facial** because it utilizes the **I-GENESIS® Technique**—an advanced three-step infusion system designed to deeply deliver customized active ingredients where your skin needs them most.

💧 Why does that matter?

When your skin is truly hydrated, it can:
✨ Function more efficiently
✨ Strengthen its natural barrier
✨ Improve elasticity
✨ Create a healthier glow
✨ Reduce the appearance of fine lines
✨ Better absorb your home skincare products

It's not just about making your skin feel soft for the day—it's about creating healthier skin from the inside out.

Every DermYoung treatment is customized based on **your skin**, your concerns, and your goals because no two complexions are exactly alike.

🤍 **Healthy skin isn't created by covering up concerns—it's created by understanding what your skin truly needs.**

Have questions about your skin? We'd love to help you build a treatment plan that's customized just for you.

✨ **Customized. Confident. You.**

✨ MICRO-NEEDLING MONDAY ✨

Beautiful skin isn’t about chasing perfection—it’s about giving your skin the tools to renew, rebuild & glow. 💗
Microneedling is one of my favorite treatments because we’re working with the skin’s natural healing response. Those tiny, controlled micro-channels help stimulate collagen + elastin production, supporting firmer, smoother and more refreshed-looking skin.

It can be a beautiful option for improving the appearance of:

✨ Fine lines & wrinkles
✨ Acne scarring
✨ Uneven texture & tone
✨ Enlarged pores
✨ Hyperpigmentation
✨ Overall skin rejuvenation

And one of the things I love most? Microneedling is customizable. Your skin, your concerns, your treatment plan. 👑

After 20+ years in aesthetics, I still believe education matters just as much as the treatment itself. Understanding why we do something—and choosing the correct depth, technique and protocol—is what helps us treat skin responsibly and beautifully.

At Upstage Beauty, we're not just covering things up.
We're encouraging your skin to do what it was designed to do. ✨
Stimulate. Renew. Rejuvenate. GLOW.

💗 Ready to give your skin some love? DM “NEEDLE” to learn more or schedule your micro-needling consultation.

And for my fellow beauty professionals—yes, I teach this too. 😉 Upstage Beauty Academy micro-needling training is available for professionals ready to elevate their knowledge, technique & confidence.

Your glow isn’t just what you put on your skin. It’s what you feed your body, speak over your life, and consistently do for yourself. 💗

As a health coach, I’ve learned that most of us already know a lot of the things we should be doing. The difference-maker?

ACCOUNTABILITY.

Someone reminding you to keep going.
Someone helping you reset when you have an off day.
Someone celebrating the little wins that eventually become BIG results. 🙌🏼

That’s exactly why I created the 21-Day LEVEL UP Challenge, kicking off this September! 💕

For 21 days, we’re focusing on:
✨ Nutrition + better daily choices
✨ Movement
✨ Hydration + healthy habits
✨ Mindset + faith
✨ Accountability + encouragement
✨ Progress — not perfection

And for those who want an easy way to bridge the nutritional gap, I’ll also be sharing how I incorporate Juice Plus+ into my own wellness lifestyle. 🍓🥬🫐
This isn’t about another crash diet.
It’s about learning how to fuel your body, strengthen your mind, build consistency and LEVEL UP your life.

Because when you feel better on the inside…
you GLOW differently on the outside. ✨

💗 21 DAYS. ONE DECISION. A BETTER YOU.

September, we LEVEL UP.
Comment “LEVEL UP” or DM me if you want in! 💪🏼💗

✨ MONDAY GLOW CHECK ✨

New week. New grace. New opportunity to show up for YOU. 💗
I’ve learned that a real glow-up isn’t just about what we see in the mirror.
It’s how we fuel our bodies.
How we speak to ourselves.
How we protect our peace.
How we show up in faith.
How we keep going when motivation disappears.

And maybe most importantly… who we surround ourselves with while we’re growing.

That’s the heart behind the UB Glow Community. 👑✨
I wanted to create a space where women can come together for accountability, encouragement, fun challenges, wellness, faith, beauty, confidence and REAL support—without feeling like we have to have everything figured out first.
Because sometimes we don’t need another perfect plan.

We need someone saying:
“Girl, get up. We’ve got this. I’m doing it with you.” 💕
This week, choose ONE thing you’re going to do differently for yourself. Drink the water. Take the walk. Say the prayer. Prep the food. Make the appointment. Set the boundary. Start the thing you keep putting off.
Small choices become habits.
Habits become lifestyles.

And eventually… you look back and realize you became her. ✨
UB Glow is about cultivating a more beautiful YOU—from the inside out.

💕 You glow. We grow. Together.

Drop a ✨ GLOW ✨ below if you’re ready to make this week count—or DM me if you want to be part of the UB Glow Community.
Happy Monday, beauties. Now go shine. 👑💗
