Here at Motives, we strive to empower people everywhere to look and feel beautiful inside and out and provide people with an opportunity to live the lifestyle they have always dreamed of. I recently interviewed Beauty Advisor and Custom Blend Specialist, Cornelia Bebe Stevens. She has incorporated Motives Beauty Brand's products and tools to tap into her creative side and live life on her own terms. Cornelia is breaking boundaries with custom blend and continues to build her empire. Way to go, Cornelia! Thank you for inspiring us and constantly helping women around you to succeed.




How were you introduced to Motives?

I started by business in Market America with the belief that health and wellness was going to be my major. My husband kept telling me that I should major in Motives, but I didn’t give it much thought. One of my business partners completed her custom blend training and wanted to blend a foundation for me. I found the whole process fascinating but honestly thought something was wrong when I saw her add purple to my formula (because I don’t have purple skin). I was shocked when it all came together and I had a foundation that actually matched my skin tone. That was the unexpected start to my Motives journey (and I had to tell my husband he was right). 






What made you want to learn more and eventually align yourself with Motives?

After my introduction to custom blend, I spent more time reviewing Motives. The first thing that stood out was that the company catered to all ethnic groups which was important to me. I know firsthand how difficult it was for me and my peers to find products that matched our skin tones and how it felt knowing that I was not represented in the products I wanted to buy. The second was its mission. I could create the lifestyle I want by helping people look and feel their very best.  

How have you leveraged the training & events to build your belief to propel your success?

One of the things I love most about Motives is the training. The corporate team is truly committed to giving beauty advisors the knowledge and skills needed to be successful. I am not a professional makeup artist or esthetician, but I am equipped with the knowledge and support I need to be successful in the beauty and skincare industry. Having a business can be challenging sometimes and events like our conferences keep my soul (my why) connected to my brain so I remain focused. 





In what ways has incorporating Motives into your business changed things for you?

Since incorporating Motives into my business, I have blended foundations for over 200 women (and a few men), added business partners and became an Executive Coordinator. I’ve gained a wonderful following on TIkTok and formed a TikTok community who’ve named themselves “Bebe’s Kidz.” More than that, at 54 years old, I found my moxie and I’m living my best life.

What do you feel is the best way to expand your Motives team?

The best way to expand my Motives team is by sharing our products and emphasizing that we are not just limited to cosmetics. We have everything needed for our clients to look and feel beautiful from the inside out and we buy it from ourselves. It’s also key to emphasize that we are in our business for ourselves but not buy ourselves. The business model is built on teamwork and the concept of working together and supporting each other is woven throughout the entire company.  For someone new to the industry like I was, this is priceless.




 


What are you most excited about regarding long-term goals?

I have spent the past year creating my personal brand on social media and it’s time to kick that up a notch and continue expanding my team. The financial freedom I have dreamed of is right at my fingertips. If I can take others with me so we can all experience that freedom that’s even better!
