Tips

  1. 1

    You can never be too sure if what you are saying will reach the judges. It is important to be genuinely nice to everyone you meet before, during and after your pageant. Be mindful of your words and actions especially to chaperons, choreographers, in-charge officers and also to your competition. The key word here is genuine, people can sense if you are being fake. So if you have nothing good to say, do not say anything and smile. It is that simple. Winning is not necessarily a popularity contest, but it helps if you have not stepped on anyone's shoes.

    Needless to say, working out is something you cannot work around on. Being active is a trade secret in winning. Do not rush into getting fit; avoid crash diets and starving yourself a few weeks before the competition. It is recommended to start prepping and setting up your fitness routine five months before the pageant. Remember, if you feel confident with the way you look in your swim wear, chances are you will feel fabulous while wearing your evening gown. The only thing you now have to worry for is your interview.

    Getting one can be expensive, but if you are in it to win it, a coach is worth it. After your sessions with an interview coach you will also be nailing job interviews in the future. However, do not solely depend on your coach; after all you will be the one answering the question. Make sure to brush up on your basic history as well as being updates on current events.

    Wear a Custom Gown

    It does not really mean you have to shell out for a couture gown. You simply have to find one that accentuates your assets and presents your body well even if it comes from a nameless designer. If you have a gown that perfectly fits you but just does not have that X-factor why not embellish it yourself?

    Do not Compare Yourself
    .

    Remember to stop comparing yourself for there will always be lesser and greater people than you. Do not make yourself crazy or stressed out with your competition. Instead, focus on your strengths and not on the things that you lack because this will show.

    Humor and Opinion
    .

    When it comes to the final interview or when anyone during the pageant asks you about something make sure you have something to say. Even if you know nothing about the topic, never end the conversation with empty silence. How you say something is at times more important than what you are saying. However, make sure you are also saying something with sense. Also, answering questions with a dash of humor will help you score high
