Be Radiant.

As you may have seen if you follow me on social media as well (I sure hope so!), my daughter and I were treated to a pretty amazing opportunity lately when we not only received tickets to the Demi Lovato World Tour stop in Saskatoon but also the opportunity for a quick meet and great with the multi-talented (yet surprisingly tiny in stature) superstar.

collageThe day began with a road trip from Regina to Saskatoon – just my 6 year old daughter and myself – which was something in itself that is a rarity for us.  We certainly were ready to have a girls day!  Before we left, Nevaeh practiced her posing.  She’d have been great at vogueing in the 90’s!

Tampax and Always are tour sponsors for the Demi Lovato World Tour, and the Be Radiant campaign is certainly a perfect fit for Demi.  The campaign’s premise is quite simple, be radiant and wear what you want, when you want.  No dark sweatpants and bulky shirts during that time of the month.  Be confident in the products you’re using and confident in the clothes you’re wearing.  Demi Lovato, of course, is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to style and she has a huge following of young girls (and ahem, moms like me who are not so young!)  My daughter is too young to understand what the sponsor’s message is, but in terms of style and confidence, we got this.

Demi Lovato World Tour Be Radiant

When the time came to meet Demi, Nevaeh was certainly nervous.  She had two questions for her; 1) Are you going to sing Let It Go tonight? and 2) I have a pose for our photo…wanna?  Demi, being sweet as she is, happily obliged!

After our meet and greet, we headed out for dinner with our friends we brought as our guests to the concert (a girl’s night out dinner is definitely an important part of GNO!) and then made it back in time to settle in before the concert.  Demi – not surprisingly – did not disappoint!

Oh, and I should mention – yes, yes she did sing Let It Go!  The reaction? Priceless.

If you had the opportunity to catch the Demi Lovato World Tour you don’t need to be told how amazing and fun it was.  If you were unable to make it, we’re bringing back a little goodie bag for readers!  We have a fantastic giveaway to share with you courtesy of Tampax #BeRadiant!

  • oh man does this prize pack have my name written all over it. I just had my baby girl a month ago so Always Pads are really needed right now and all i use is Herbal Essences so that would be perfect for me! I dont have much for make up anymore but I do have a little bit left of my Olay BB cream and Covergirl mascara is the best!! I love this confidence campaign! and how cool is that for your daughters to get a pic with Demi 🙂

I love getting one on one time with each of my kids that includes spending time out of the house! I love the message these sponsors want to send to omen of all ages!

  • I don’t have a daughter, but my son and I have a special day once a week (usually Sunday while daddy watches football) where its all about us. He chooses where we go to play. What we play. Etc. no cleaning. No to do list. Just quality time.

  • My daughter and I try to do a GNO every couple of month’s or so. She is a bit young to go to a concert but we have tickets for The Nutcracker in December and she is over the moon excited.

  • What a great night for you and your girl! If I won this package, it would be split between my wife and daughter. I think being radiant means being who you are. Be proud.

  • I love these kind of messages – wear what you want when you want – basically be yourself. Love it! If I’d win I would surely share it with friends and family members!

  • My daughter is only 8 months old, but I can`t wait to starthavung GNOs with her! I think it`s a really positive message, which is lovely to see.

  • What a great prize pack. I don’t have a daughter but I have done GNO with my niece. Always have a great time. And now she has a daughter so when she gets older hopefully we can all do a GNO together.

  • I have two daughters and has GNO with both. It’s a lot of fun and I get to find out a lot of things happening in their life and at school. They would tell me more things than sitting at the dinner table with their dad 🙂

    The message is positive.

    I would share with my sisters in law.

  • would love this for my daughters and my tenn granddaughters and myself! so many wonderful products we would love to try! Beautiful pics of u and your daughter 🙂 thank you for a fabulous giveaway!

  • I don’t have a daughter (I have 5 sons) but looks like you had a great time. I’ve gone to concerts with my oldest son before, and we are just waiting for Nickleback to come back to Calgary as both my 17 and 7 year olds very much want to go see them live (me too, I love them lol). If I won I would share with my friend’s daughter who is 13 🙂 Thanks for the chance!!

  • I never had a daughter as much as I would have loved one but I do have lovely daughters in law. If I won I would definitely share with them.

  • We always do GNO’s ! I love the Be Radiant message. Its a great way to let young girls know its ok to wear what you want. I would give this prize to my daughter. It would be so perfect for her at her age.

  • I don’t have any children yet, but I would definitely have GNOs with her if I do have one! I think concerts are a great way to spend GNO!

  • oops hit enter instead of shift lol yes I have had a GNO with my two beautiful daughters I need more . any positive message is a good one in my eyes and who I would give it to Id split it up between my two girls. its amazing how much of my grocery fund goes out to feminine hygiene it is very costly with three people in the house having to use them.

  • I celebrate my friends daughters with girl night out. We go for dinner at out local bookstore that has a café, or go on adventures in the park looking for new flowers. GNO is a must time for all ages!

  • My girls and I have had our times out together, meals, shopping, just hanging out around town checking out different things/events going on. I’ve used some of these products, I would for sure be sharing the prize with them all if I won.

  • I have no daughters but I do have a niece that I get to hang out with and we have fun. I would share this prize with her if I won

  • I would sure love this and share it with my daughter.I have always trusted this brand and have always used it . This message is a strong message to be who you are where what you want and shine.The only down fall is when you try wear what you want and be who you want to be you may be targetted by those who like to bully. They will bully you for being an individual and being yourself (from experience witgh my own daughter)..I know that Demi has also been bullied when younger

  • I think the Be Radiant message is great – it’s about instilling confidence in girls and letting them know that no matter who you are, where you are from, or what is going on in your life, it’s important to be true to yourself and feel good about being you and that others don’t have the right or the power to take away your dreams/spirit/individuality/creativity/etc. Being yourself is what makes you radiant and there no need to change 🙂 Nice message.

  • My and my sisters have an annual/semi annual GNO. We don’t see each other much, but we always try to get together once or twice a year. I would share with them if I win.

  • I like the Be Radiant message. So often we don’t feel at our best during that time of the month. I have been using Always products for years and am confident in the protection they provide and feel free to wear what I want.

  • I have no daughter- but my niece fills that in nicely, we occassional have a girls nite, the radiant message is really inspiring for girls to be themselves and we love the always radiant products, these are the best ones they have made yet.

  • My cousin just had her 5th baby this week and I would love to share this with her and her oldest daughter

  • I love the be radiant message. Wear what you want, when you want and be confident is empowering and inspiring. Being a woman takes hard work, strength from within and wisdom! Wisdom in knowing where to lay our trust is such an important product!

  • Your meet and greet with Demi seemed amazing and these prizes would be a great win! Thanks for the opportunity!!

  • Hello, I have four daughters who are now “of age” and of course myself who is also “of age” and so we would certainly put your box of goodies to very good use!! What great stocking stuffers too!! We have had many GNO’s, NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, Hillary Duff and Cher!! We would love to win this box of goodies for the love of Always, Herbal Essence, Olay & Covergirl, all of which mysteriously disappear in this house!! Thank you!! 🙂

  • I really like the message they are promoting – in today’s society, women and girls can use all the positive reinforcement they can get.. there are too many negative messages out there, so anything positive is very welcome!

  • i would give this prize package to my daughter who is in college right now. I am extremely proud of her. Whenever she comes home we go and do something just together. We love to go to the beach to just sit and talk. We also love to go out to lunch and then shop at thrift stores.

  • I would like to share this with my daughters my teenager would LOVE this and they both would love to have met demi soooo lucky

  • I have always had an excellent rapport with my daughter – we love the messages that seem to be more in the public now than say 10 years ago

  • I would pass this prize over to a friend who has a teenage daughter and not much money! I think it would be helpful

  • I don`t have a daughter,,but think the messege is great! ,, I would definately get a lot of use with all these great products,plus share with with my 17yo neice and sister 🙂

  • I really like the “Be Radiant” message because it’s not specific on how to be radiant and is totally open to interpretation. So everyone can do and “Be Radiant” in their own way.

  • My girls and I have had some girls’ nights out together as I enjoy spending the quality time with them. Be Radiant is an amazing message for girls.

  • I have had many girls night out with my girls..we all love them and have some great memories, I would share this of course with my girls

  • That looked like it was an unforgettable night! My daughter is 2.5 and we are going to do a GNO out Disney On Ice coming up. I love that she’s finally getting to an age where I can do these fun GNO’s.

  • What an awesome prize. My daughter is 4, so a little too young, but looking forward to when we can dothese – going for pedicures is on teh list!

  • I haven’t had a night out yet but we do have lunch together every once in a while I will pick her up from school and it’s a great time to bond and talk about girls things.

  • I love the be radiant message! That is so great to get that point out there, especially for younger ladies. Great giveaway and your photo with Demi is so cute!

  • That is awesome that you got to have such an experience! Unfortunately I don’t have a daughter to have a GNO with 🙁 I would have one with my best friend though.

  • I also don’t have a daughter to have a GNO with either , the message is awesome , i would def share with my 15 year old cousin and it would really come in handy 🙂 thanks for the chance 🙂

  • I have two daughters and had many GNOs. It’s my older daughter’s birthday today, so after work we’re all going out for dinner and wherever the evening takes us! 🙂

  • I love the message, don’t have a daughter but a niece who is almost like my own, would share with my sister.

  • what a great prize package! a fun way to try Olay favourite and try new Cover Girl items I’ve never had the pleasure of trying yet!

  • I have had many GNOs with my daughter, now a young woman. We love to spend a day at the spa together. And we still giggle like teenagers. I would gift this to her.

  • I did have a girls day out with my daughter last year.. that’s a long time ago, we spent the day at the international women’s show. If I won this, the package would go directly to my daughter.

  • Oh how I’d love to do a girls night out but don’t think my boys will let me transform them even for a night 🙁

  • No I have not had a girls night out, I have a son he’s 3. We go out on movie days and are pretty much buddies at this young age! lol. I like be radiant message although you may not be in the mood to get glammed up! I would focus on the stigmatisms and negativities rather than what you wear. I would share this package with my friends if I won!

  • My daughter is too young for this type of night – our nights out tend to be done by 7 and include a trip to the mechanical animal rides at the mall!

  • My daughter and I had quite a few GNOs . We love to spend quality time together. The be radiant message is a great one.

  • I did have an awesome girls night with my daughter and some of her friends. we went to an R-5 concert and it was a lot of fun.

  • I try to do a girls’ night out with my 3 daughters at least once a month. This month (tomorrow evening) we are going out for coffee (well tea or hot chocolate for the kids) and dessert at our favourite coffee shop, Decades. Then we’ll come home for mani/pedis

  • My Be Radiant message is to be your best and your body tells a story with how you treat it. Get your sleep, have some exercise every few days, have some fun with friends and find some time to be quiet and get in tune with your core.

  • I have FOUR daughters, from teen to 30’s. We have had girls night and played games, giggled a lot, some girly stuff, movies. Not really a big spa type or make up night yet, but always something going on for events…helping someone getting ready. all my girls are unique in what they do and wear…no comparisons or competitiveness here. It’s great because all the girls are about 5 years apart. If I won I’d share this with the girls and have a lil gift party!

  • I don’t have a daughter to have a girl’s night out with, but I took my mother on one for her 65th birthday…. We went out for a nice dinner with one of her good friends, then we went to see Michael Buble. It was a great evening and we had a fabulous time! I think the Be Radiant message is perfect because it comes from the inside. If I won the prize, I would share it 🙂

  • I don’t have any daughters (3 little boys here!) but I have three adorable little nieces who I hope to love on and inspire in days ahead 🙂

  • I’ve had a GNO with my niece, it was so much fun! The Be Radiant message is very positive, I hope they keep it up. My niece would get most of the products in this prize if I won. 😉

  • I’ve had quite a few GNO’s with my granddaughters. It was a good time for all and got to spend quality time together. The Be Radiant message is simply be you, have confidence in your choice and products. If I won this it would definantly be split among my granddaughters

  • We had a GNO in August when we went to see Katy Perry, we don’t get as many as we like, as there are 3 kids and I am a single parent, but we try. My daughter uses some of the Be radiant products now, and really likes them. A positive message is always great.

  • I love the message behind the be radiant campaign. I don’t have daughters but have frequent BNO with my sons.

  • If I won this package I would treat myself to a spa-day at home. I think it would be a great way to celebrate my 2nd trimester!

  • I raised my daughter as s single mother since she was eleven, and we enjoyed many many GNO. It was just the two of us for a long time.

  • This is a great prize package, I would share it with my sister,
    me and my daughter prefer Girl’s Nights in watching movies but a GNO sounds like a great idea for the near future!

  • If I won this prize pack I would share it with my besties! My daughter is still a little young for us to have a GNO, but I am looking forward to many as she gets older!

  • I love the message behind the be radiant campaign. I don’t have daughters but have frequent BNO with my sons.

  • My daughter just got married, and of course we had GNO. I think it was that moment that I became a friend, as well as mom.

  • I can’t wait until my daughter is old enough for a GNO. I think it’s important to share that bond so that our girls know they have a friend not just a parent in there time of need.
