Hi, I'm Kim Foerster
I'm the founder of Royal Glow Beauty & Esthetics, and I'm passionate about helping women in the Mahoning Valley feel their absolute best.
My Story
I've always believed that every woman deserves to feel beautiful. Growing up modestly in the Mahoning Valley, I discovered my love for beauty through dance and as a college majorette. I learned early on how the right makeup and confidence could transform how someone felt about themselves.
For 20 years, I worked in banking while continuing to do makeup and beauty work on the side—for my daughter's pageants, friends' special events, and anyone who needed that extra confidence boost. But after missing too much of my kids' lives, I realized it was time for a change.
In 2020, I decided to turn my decades of beauty experience into a career that would let me be more present for my family while helping women in our community feel their absolute best. Royal Glow is the result—professional beauty services that are actually accessible.
Why I Started Royal Glow
After decades in banking, I wanted to build something that would allow me to be present for my family while using the beauty skills I'd been perfecting for years.
Growing up modestly, I understand what it's like when professional beauty treatments feel out of reach. Royal Glow is my way of changing that for women in our community.
What Makes Me Different
I bring years of beauty experience where attention to detail and making people feel confident are everything. Whether it's helping clients achieve younger-looking skin with anti-aging facial treatments or other specialized services, I understand real life—I'm a working mom who knows what it's like to balance family, career, and wanting to look your best.
You get professional results with the personal touch of someone who truly gets it and believes beauty should be accessible to everyone.

My Journey to Royal Glow
2020: The Career Change

I became a Licensed Advanced Esthetician, combining my decades of beauty and makeup experience with professional skincare training to offer complete beauty services.

Why I Love What I Do
"There's nothing better than watching a client look in the mirror after their treatment and just light up. That moment when they see their skin glowing and feel beautiful—that's why I do this."
