DESIGNER CHANTAL THOMASS,
GUEST OF HONOR AT LUXE PACK
MONACO 2015
Last year, Tyra Banks thrilled the crowd with the release
of her own cosmetic line. This year, she announced the
opening of an enrollment to her ‘TYRA University,’
where she trains ‘TYRA Beautytainers’ who are “independent sales representatives who make money through
sharing the TYRA Beauty movement. Beautytainers
share the power of transformation in person or online
and inviting others to do the same.”
The program encourages Beautytainers to take charge
of their life, run their own business, and live life like a
boss. The initial training at the TYRA-U costs $59, and
the enrollment is required to become a Beautytainer.
Enrollees get to pick their starter kit (optional): Basic,
or Beyond Basic, where they are given a set of products, marketing materials, and business supplies to start
running their business. Trainees will learn all the tips,
tricks, and tools needed with the support of the Beautytainer community and the TYRA Beauty HQ Team.
