We're celebrating Women all this month!
And while we've featured our two female owners in the previous posts (here and here), today we're featuring our fave ladies from - Lulu Digital!
"Be YOU and keep shining!"
Erin, Qama and Eira
Lulu Digital
Lulu Digital is an online collaborative platform that is focused on fashion, beauty and lifestyle.
What we like most is that they believe in allowing individuals to have creative freedom and giving them a platform to express themselves.
It really does remind us of our MENU - where we let YOU, the individual decide on what should go in their own meals. 😉
Founded by the three ever vibrant, enthusiastic and full of energy ladies - Erin, Eira and Qama (100% Girl Squad)
We caught up with them and had them share what their experience has been like since starting out, their vision for their platform and of course, the strong advice for all you women out there..
1. How would you describe yourselves in three words?
- Different
- Vibrant
- Enthusiastic
2. How long have you guys known each other and how?
Qama: We've known each other for 3 years..
and we met through our mutual friend, Dale, who also happens to be Erin's boyfriend.
Plus, Erin and Eira has known each other their whole lives - being sisters! 😛
3. What is your passion and do you find yourself doing what you’re truly passionate about?
Our shared passion is creating content but we each have our own interests:
Erin - Writing & Styling
Qama - Makeup
Eira - Filmmaking
And yes, we do find that we're doing something that the three of us are truly passionate about which is creating content!
GIRLS, THIS IS FOR US...

4. What inspired you guys to start Lulu?
Qama: We've been wanting to do our own thing for awhile and we've been meeting up and talking about creating content that that our audiences can relate which is fun & colourful.
We also want to give a voice & give a platform for upcoming artists, who we feel are genuinely talented people..
So one night over dinner, we just went "Let's start our own thing! Like why do we have to wait for people to do it?"
So, what inspired us is our vision to create something different that's not really mainstream but still very fun, cute and to not take ourselves too seriously.
We just want to HAVE FUN and show it to the world!
5. Who is your biggest role model/inspiration?
Eira: My mom because she's very hardworking and she inspires a lot and encourages me to do the things that I love!
Erin: Same, my answer would be my mom! She's so strong and she's very open and receptive our interests and stuff although it's different
Qama: My answer would be my sister. She's the person i look up to the most when I was growing up, she always had the best fashion and she always thought me how to make up. So yeah, she definitely has a strong influence on me growing up.
6. What is the biggest challenge you’ve come across so far, and how did you handle it?
Eira: Our biggest challenge was finding the people to work with us that have the same vision as us.
It's very hard to find people that believe in what we believe in.
I guess, we're lucky that the three of us share the same vision!
7. Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
Qama: In 5 years, we want to see our platform growing and becoming a more established for those who want to create!
We will continue to do what we love and..
And hopefully spread the positive message to more people to follow your passion, and don't let anyone put you down.
Give it a try, and just do it!
8. What is women empowerment to you?
Eira: To me it means an equal status in society..
Erin: and girls should support each other - no drama!
Qama: #GirlsSupportGirls
9. What’s your favourite Wok It Box combination and why?
Eira: Mango Sweet Chilli + Yellow Noodle (No Veges)
Erin: Tom Yum + White Rice
Qama: Asam Pedas + Brown Rice
10. If you’re given the chance to speak to many women, what is the most important message that you want to tell them?
Qama: I would love to say - just follow your heart!
Erin: ..and don't let anyone tell you that you can't do it and don't be afraid to just be you and it's fine to have your own opinion..
Eira: Just be YOU & keep on shining!
