INTERVIEW with Michaela Rose || Candidate for Face of Australia 2025
SD: Hi, Michaela. Can you introduce yourself to my readers who don’t know you yet?
MR: Hi, I’m Michaela Rose! I’m beyond thrilled to introduce myself as a candidate for Face of Australia 2025! I’m 19 years old. If there’s one thing to know about me, it’s that I’m an outgoing and cheerful person who loves meeting new people, trying new things, and diving headfirst into new adventures. Life’s too short not to explore all the possibilities, right?
SD: You’re a Candidate for Face of Australia 2025. Can you tell me more about it?
MR: Becoming a candidate for Face of Australia 2025 is such an exciting and meaningful experience for me! This platform goes beyond being just a competition—it’s a celebration of individuality, diversity, and the stories that make us who we are. I’m truly honored to have this chance to showcase my values and culture while using this stage to inspire and make a difference in the community.
SD: How did you become interested in pageants?
MR: My love for pageants started with my passion for self-expression and advocacy. I’ve always admired how pageants give women a voice and the confidence to stand up for what they believe in. It’s not just about the crown—it’s about growth, empowerment, and becoming the best version of yourself.
SD: What’s in your makeup bag right now?
MR: If you looked inside my makeup bag, you’d see my little collection of beauty must-haves! I mostly use Korean makeup brands because I love how fresh and natural their products make me feel. And not gonna lie, I love being resourceful—I use my lippies as blushes, too! It’s such a fun way to save money while keeping my routine simple. My go-to products include cushion foundations, lightweight tints, and a good lip balm for that effortless glow.
SD: What is your vision of success?
MR: For me, success means living a life filled with purpose and joy. It’s about staying true to who I am, creating opportunities to help others, and finding fulfillment in every step of the journey. I believe success is personal—it’s not about what the world expects of us but about how we define happiness and achievement for ourselves.
SD: If you could give one piece of advice to your 14 year old self, what would it be?
MR: If I could go back in time and give my 14-year-old self some advice, I’d say this: “Don’t be afraid to dream big! Step out of your comfort zone and embrace every challenge as a chance to grow. You’re stronger and braver than you think, so trust yourself and God’s plan—amazing things are coming your way!”
SD: Who are you most inspired by in the Pageant World and why?
MR: In the pageant world, one of my biggest inspirations is Catriona Gray. I admire her so much for how she carries herself with grace and intelligence while using her platform to advocate for education for underprivileged children. She truly embodies what it means to have beauty with a purpose, and that’s something I aspire to as well.
SD: How have beauty pageants impacted your life and your career?
MR: Beauty pageants have been a life-changing experience for me. They’ve boosted my confidence, given me a voice, and taught me the importance of perseverance and self-belief. They’ve also opened so many doors, allowing me to connect with inspiring people and grow both personally and professionally.
SD: What is your best beauty secret?
MR: Now, for my best beauty secret—it’s all about self-care! Staying hydrated, getting enough sleep, and keeping up with a consistent skincare routine are my non-negotiables. But honestly, I think the ultimate beauty secret is a big, genuine smile and a positive attitude. That kind of glow comes from within!
