Things that changed your face?
Lip filler, a tan, no more bottom mascara, thinner and slightly darker eyebrows, gua sha and nu face daily, good skincare, limiting alcohol and focusing on what I put into my body, cutting sugary drinks and adding kefir/kombucha to my hydration schedule, washing my sheets and makeup tools weekly, red light therapy, and learning how to apply makeup properly did it for me.
Every woman needs a simple day dress. Something easy to throw on and wear out, flattering and feminine, not too long or too short, and preferably form-fitting. I have a cream Ted Baker midi dress that I love; it flatters my body, I’m constantly getting compliments on it, and it fits my vibe perfectly.
I wear my dress with gold jewelry, a little pair of gold Steve Madden kitten sandals, put on some soft bronzed makeup, run my curling iron through my hair, and I’m ready to go. Looking good isn’t hard; you just have to invest your time well and be ready and willing to put yourself together before you leave your home.
I’m busy crafting an image befitting of the woman I’d like to be and the lifestyle I’d like to live in the future.
Favorite Clothing Brand?
Helsa is probably my favorite brand at the moment. I think half of my closet is Helsa, and I find myself buying and wearing a lot of Elsa Hosk’s brand as of late. I’ve never had any trouble with what I’ve bought; the quality has all been really nice, and the fit and length have been perfect for me. I will say that I feel like a lot of the pieces are priced like investment pieces but, in reality, have a bit too much polyester to be worth the price they are, but all in all, I buy from the brand because I love what I own so far and enjoy the way and feel everything looks when it’s on my body.
btw I am doing it afraid
a deep connection can’t be formed without emotional safety. without safety, there’s no trust. without trust, there’s no vulnerability. without vulnerability, there’s no intimacy + without intimacy, there’s no true connection.
more things you like or use?
curls and that headband make for a truly splendid look.
Aligning, persisting, learning, observing and executing.
i want to shake many young women and say you can grow in private. and what i mean by that is that you don’t have to publicly self-flagellate when you don’t know something or when you say something a little insensitive or whatever else. you don’t have to report your Bad Thoughts and Ignorance to the crowd who waits to judge you. you do not have to pay penance. you do not have to issue public statements. nothing more is gained from burying yourself in shame than you could gain by thinking “oh i don’t know about this” and looking it up real quick, or thinking “hm, that wasn’t how i want to behave, i’ll do different next time” and then moving on with your life. no need to choke yourself with it.
May the next version of your life feel like a deep breath.
Not a drill! Bella Hadid’s hairstylist posted the formula!!
