It is a cause for which I have been trying to raise awareness worldwide for quite a while and I really hope to make a difference and to rid the world of domestic violence against ladies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Now that you\u2019re crowned Mrs. Mexico Universal, how do you use that to do good for the society?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Giving to the society has always been crucial for me, I have grown up in a house that respects giving and appreciates doing so. So while I do enjoy my titles very much, I try as much as I can to use them in spreading awareness for important issues and solving any problem I can help solve or shed the light on. For me, women empowerment is key to having a sustainable development and is on top of my list. If we have more women involved in politics, medicine, education, etc. we will have a more stable country. This was one of the reasons I founded my organization \u2018Queens without Scars\u2019.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tell us more about \u2018Queens without Scars\u2019 and what motivated you to establish it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It all started with the confession of a friend who was suffering violence inside her own house, which was a real genuine story of a friend that made me think how I can help her. I wanted to help anyone who faced this so I started \u2018Queens without Scars\u2019 shortly after I heard her story. I began in only one country and now it\u2019s working to create change in 16 countries worldwide, with hardworking ambassadors.\u00a0Women fight to become queens without scars, which is why I decided to fight for them. Makeup was only made to exalt the beauty and correct small imperfections, not to hide the pain, or cover fear. That is where the foundation comes in action; we raise awareness, we build workshops, we help people find a community to share this experience and accordingly empower women. Because women have proven to be successful wherever they land, they deserve all the possible support.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You have recently visited Egypt, can you share your feedback about experience?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>After being invited officially to promote tourism, I can honestly say that I loved every bit of it. I have always heard about how fun a trip to this country can be, but I can now safely say it is simply heaven. Other than Egypt being a charming experience, I also loved the experience of visiting all the charity organizations I have been to. I immensely enjoyed meeting those people and drawing smiles on their faces.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6030\" src=\"https:\/\/insight-egypt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/mrs-mexico1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\" height=\"1275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/insight-egypt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/mrs-mexico1.jpg 850w, https:\/\/insight-egypt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/mrs-mexico1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/insight-egypt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/mrs-mexico1-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/insight-egypt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/mrs-mexico1-683x1024.jpg 683w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>We know you have endorsed Egyptian brands, tell us more about it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, I was introduced to the unique designer Sami Amin and I really loved his designs. I was proud to wear few of his pieces and I believe the brand has potential on an international level because of its fine quality, its distinctive taste and the authentic Egyptian spirit of the designs. I also wore Bahig Hussein Couture, which is another lovely Egyptian brand.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PULL OUT:\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cEgypt is a country that I have always dreamed to discover.
