Over time, I have definitely grown as an artist, business owner and creator so I will be sharing a few tips to help makeup artists and enthusiasts in their

Charcoal for skincare || Beauty Formulas Activated Charcoal Scrub Review
I have totally been into skincare lately. I'm going to be reviewing a charcoal scrub today and it's really affordable so that's cool. Activated charcoal has been a recent skincare rave and it is fantastic at drawing out impurities and unclogging pores.

Maintaining Protein-Moisture Balance in My Hair || Profectiv MegaGrowth Daily Leave-in Strengthener Review
Growing up, whenever I complained that my hair was dry, someone would say “oil your hair”. That analogy makes no sense because when you are thirsty, you don’t drink oil right? You drink water. So when hair feels dry, it needs moisture; that’s why a leave in conditioner that provides moisture is essential for healthy longer hair. It's

Why You Need to add Konjac to Your Skincare Routine || Benefits of Konjac
Personally, I think Asians are the skincare gods. That continent is so diverse and each unique culture has blessed the world with great natural skincare products and remedies from the Indians and their turmeric to the Japanese and their konjac. Wait, you didn’t know about Konjac? Let me gist you.

Perfect Nude Lipsticks for Women of Color
Every makeup lover should have one nude lipstick…or more than fifteen, its fine, I don’t judge ya sis. However it is not so easy to find the perfect nude for the medium and darker melanin queens.

A failed braid out on my kinky natural hair
A failed braid out on my kinky natural hair
You should know, I barely ever style my natural hair. Why? Because it never adheres to the rules. Curling custards barely ever curl it, gels need the grace of God to lay it down and it defies gravity by standing up straight most times. This is why I have embraced the pineapple/high puff as my go-to hairstyle. But

So one whole week later... Guyyyyysss I’m coming out of my hiatus to do this.... okay because I choose to be nice, you are probably going to read this two weeks from now or so, but if I don’t write this now the hype will leave my body and that will be all.

My journey to self love: dealing with self hate (part 2)
I have taken long to write the part 2 to this post because I honestly didn't know what to write. I have been trying to pick and choose the right words to use but I don't have them. So I am just going to be as honest as I was in my last post and hopefully, it all

My journey to self love: dealing with self hate (Intermission)
Some days ago I revealed in a blog post how I grew to hate myself. Since writing that post, I have gotten alot of messages and some phone calls encouraging me and giving me the most positive feedback I could have ever imagined. For that, I say thank you.

My journey to self love: dealing with self hate (part 1)
Some days ago, I saw a post where a blogger wrote about her "flaws" that she has learned to love. That inspired me to want to do a similar post from a different angle. Today, I will be talking about how society taught me to hate myself.

Empties: Olay oil minimizing Toner and Argan Oil Night Repair Serum
Skincare is a big deal for me. That's because great skin begets a great looking and long lasting facebeat. I have a skincare routine post but I have been trying out and switching up some products over the last few months which are worthy of mention on the blog. I will be reviewing my now empty Olay oil

What's with the British Royal Wedding?
What's with the British Royal Wedding?
Source: www.royal.uk Generally, I am not into who-is-marrying-who and least of all, British who-is-marrying-who. However when I heard that one of the British royals had decided to marry a woman with some melanin, my interest was piqued. As the wedding date (Saturday May 19th) draws nearer and I anticipate the array of fascinators that are sure to fascinate,

Death is good... sometimes
Death is good... sometimes
I recently lost a dear family friend, someone I looked up to as a spiritual father. Honestly, it shook me a little. It got me thinking, wondering what the point of this life was at all. But I was reminded that death is good sometimes.

Review: Restaurant Damada's Peking House
If you ever learn anything from me, it should be the importance of eating well. You cannot come and go and die because of anything in this world. When life gives me lemons, I slice it and use it to marinate chicken with some rosemary, salt and black pepper. That's my philosophy. So when law school tried to
Our First NLS Dinner Experience
Our First NLS Dinner Experience
I have heard that it is popular belief that the dinner organized by law school is some form of "initiation" into a "cult".Yes we wear black and walk in in a single file while wearing long faces. Yes we eat quietly and solemnly. Yes no one else is invited. But trust me, it is not an initiation 😁
