Shizens "Stand Firm Stay Firm" Campaign -- Celebrating all Women out there...

#standfirmstayfirm

A photography campaign to empower women.....

“The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, but true beauty in a Woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she knows.”     

― Audrey Hepburn

That sums up my Mom perfectly....Mom has always put our needs first; she rather saved the money that she earned from baby-sitting for her children, instead of buying cosmetics and going to facial spa to beautify herself. Yet, she never complained but stand firm and still manage to smile everyday...and behind the smile, the lines of age are clearly seen....that particular afternoon, we brought Mom for a pampering makeover and photo-shooting; she was really enjoying the process, seeing herself beautiful.....but to me, regardless with make up on or not, she is always beautiful in my heart....

Vote for my Mom here, thanks!!

Since ancient times, women were rarely offered opportunities to work and learn. Yet, their inner strength can still be seen through their roles of giving birth to new life, taking care and protecting their family. As time passed though, women began demonstrating their capabilities in undertaking more responsibilities, raising a family as well as being part of the workforce and contributing to social welfare. As evolution enhanced the confidence level of every woman allowing them to showcase their inner strength, they still recognized the importance of physical beauty and strive to maintain their outer beauty through various means.

Courageous and Bold...

As a means of acknowledging and recognizing the efforts of all women, Shizens is launching a “Stand Firm Stay Firm” campaign from 2 April to 30 April, 2014 where customers and fans will stand to win loads of attractive prizes by displaying their inner strength and outer beauty through a photo contest. The “Stand Firm Stay Firm” campaign aims to display the outer beauty of women while also revealing their inner strength, which serves as an encouragement for them to stand firm within our society.

“I believe in strong women. I believe in the woman who is able to stand up for herself. I believe in the woman who doesn't need to hide behind her husband's back. I believe that if you have problems, as a woman you deal with them, you don't play victim, you don't make yourself look pitiful, you don't point fingers. You stand and you deal. You face the world with a head held high and you carry the universe in your heart.” 

― C. JoyBell C.
