In a candid Substack essay she revealed closing her Forbes-recognised co-founded swimwear business after a difficult personal period — house sale, a breakup — and admitted to largely stepping back from By Glaze while rebuilding her life.
Her Wandsworth property — untouched for nearly 70 years when she bought it — was spotlighted in a full editorial feature covering its restoration with earthy textures, original period details, and a deep-green kitchen extension.

Natalie Glaze is a Kenya-based lifestyle creator whose content centers on a personal reinvention arc — rebuilding her life through her thirties after a period of significant change. Operating across Instagram and TikTok, she weaves together style, home interiors, and candid personal storytelling into a narrative-driven feed. Her hashtag vocabulary — 'rebuilding,' 'new chapter,' 'getting my spark back' — signals a content ethos grounded in vulnerability and quiet aspiration rather than polished perfection. She is also the founder of ByGlaze, a brand extension that suggests she is actively translating her audience relationship into a product or creative venture beyond the creator economy.
Her audience skews young and is predominantly Kenyan, with secondary reach into the US and UK, likely through diaspora connections. Above-average engagement across both platforms points to a community genuinely invested in her personal story rather than passively scrolling. Sponsored posts in the hair care and beauty space sit naturally alongside her glow-up narrative, allowing brands to reach an authenticity-led audience without tonal friction. As she develops ByGlaze in parallel with her creator profile, she is moving toward a hybrid influencer-entrepreneur model that is increasingly attractive to lifestyle and beauty brands targeting African millennial consumers.
Natalieglaze reaches an audience concentrated in KEN primarily through YouTube, and is best activated via Instagram Reels and Stories, TikTok branded content. Their sponsorship history skews toward Fashion / Lifestyle, a clear signal of fit for brands in those categories. Demonstrated partners include ByGlaze. Engagement on YouTube runs around 3.4%, which points to an audience better suited to category-relevant, mid-funnel campaigns than to pure-reach buys. The channel's mix of Instagram Reels and Stories and TikTok branded content lets a sponsor choose between short awareness placements and longer, more detailed integrations. Because the audience follows fashion content rather than arriving through untargeted reach, sponsorships that match the channel's subject matter tend to convert more efficiently than broad placements. A consistent, on-topic posting focus gives sponsors a predictable, brand-safe environment, lowering placement risk compared with broad, general-interest channels. Campaigns here are best measured on qualified engagement and consideration within the niche rather than on raw impression volume. For KEN-focused brands in Fashion / Lifestyle and related categories, Natalieglaze offers a defined, creative-fit audience rather than broad, low-intent impressions.

@byglaze_ is a brand Natalieglaze founded herself, which she actively promotes alongside her personal content. Given that her creative identity centres on style and interiors, ByGlaze sits squarely within that lifestyle space. She lists it in both her Instagram and TikTok bios, treating it as an extension of the aesthetic world she documents online.
Natalieglaze has built her entire content identity around a very public personal reset, using hashtags like #startingover, #newchapter, #rebuildingmylife, and #startingagain across her posts. Her bio phrase 'rebuilding a beautiful life in my 30s' frames the journey as her core theme rather than a side note. She documents this ongoing chapter honestly, which is a big part of why her audience connects with her so strongly.
Natalieglaze is 34 years old, something she mentions directly in her content — referring to herself as 'a 34 year old girlie' in at least one recent post. Her age is actually central to her brand, since her whole platform is about intentionally rebuilding life in your 30s rather than treating that decade as a crisis.
In one of her most-talked-about posts, Natalieglaze opened with the line 'The butterfly effect is crazy because what do you mean I met a man for coffee to…' — teasing how a seemingly small, casual encounter snowballed into something much bigger romantically. The cliffhanger style of the caption is very on-brand for her storytelling approach and generated a lot of engagement from followers wanting to know what happened next.
Yes — romance and connection are woven into her 'rebuilding' narrative, and she uses the hashtag #lovestory alongside posts that hint at a new relationship unfolding. The butterfly effect post is a clear example of her inviting her audience into that personal journey. It's one of the reasons her following skews so engaged, because people are genuinely invested in how the story develops.
The hashtag #mymarks appears in Natalieglaze's beauty and lifestyle content, and seems to be about embracing physical marks — such as stretch marks or skin texture — as part of an authentic self-image. It aligns thematically with the #authenticbeautyconcept hashtag she also uses, which is tied to a branded beauty campaign around unfiltered, real beauty. Together they reflect her broader message that rebuilding yourself includes accepting your body as it is.
Natalieglaze has done at least one disclosed paid partnership in the hair care space, with a caption explicitly labelled 'Ad' covering glowing up and hair care as a woman in her 30s. She has also used the hashtag #authenticbeautyconcept, which is associated with a branded beauty campaign, suggesting her brand deals lean toward premium or purpose-led beauty labels. Her audience being predominantly female and engaged makes her a strong fit for that category.
Yes, Natalieglaze is based in Kenya and the overwhelming majority of her audience is Kenyan, making her one of the more prominent Kenyan lifestyle creators in the style-and-interiors space. She also draws a smaller but meaningful share of viewers from the United States and United Kingdom, giving her some international reach beyond East Africa.
Alongside personal style, interiors is one of Natalieglaze's two declared passions — she describes herself as a 'Lover of style & interiors' in her bio. Her content appears to blend home aesthetics with the broader idea of consciously designing a life you love, rather than purely functional interior design tips. It fits into her overarching theme of curating beauty in every corner of a rebuilt life.
Natalieglaze posts on both Instagram and TikTok, with Instagram currently being her larger platform and the one she updates most frequently. Her TikTok following is growing at a faster percentage rate month-over-month, suggesting she is actively building that audience in parallel. YouTube is listed as her primary platform on CreatorDB, indicating she may also maintain a presence there.
