Sophia Rizzo Featured by Inside Gold Coast

We are so excited to share that Glitter Girl founder Sophia Rizzo has been featured by Inside Gold Coast in a beautiful interview celebrating her journey as a young Gold Coast entrepreneur.

At just 18 years old, Sophia has grown Glitter Girl from a childhood dream into an Australian beauty brand built on confidence, creativity, self-expression and eco-conscious sparkle.

The feature shares Sophia’s story from moving to the Gold Coast from Brisbane at 9 years old, starting Glitter Girl at just 10, and building the brand into what it is today. From appearing on Shark Tank Australia to growing a community of sparkle lovers across Australia and beyond, the article captures the heart behind Glitter Girl and why the brand has always been about so much more than glitter.

For Sophia, Glitter Girl began with a simple idea. She loved sparkle, but noticed there weren’t many eco-friendly glitter options that felt fun, high quality and safe to use. That gap inspired her to create something different. Something playful, conscious and confidence-building.

Since then, Glitter Girl has evolved with Sophia. What started as eco-friendly glitter has grown into a beauty brand filled with shimmer, glow and products designed to make people feel confident at any age.

One of our favourite parts of the interview is Sophia’s reminder that “sparkle is about confidence, not age.” Glitter Girl has always been about helping people express themselves, feel good in their own skin and add a little joy to everyday life.

The article also touches on the importance of family support, the challenges of being taken seriously as a young founder, Sophia’s love for the Gold Coast, and what’s next for Glitter Girl as the brand continues to grow.

We are so grateful to Inside Gold Coast for sharing Sophia’s story and shining a light on the journey behind Glitter Girl.
