Because I Am A Queen

But I learned to love myself unconditionally!  
Simply Put India!

I decided to use this video because I was staring at myself in the mirror and a year later, I cant believe I cut all my hair off and started all over. I had hair the length of my pinky... cut in half.

And now, if stretched out, it reaches the end of my neck. I <3 my natural hair! Having natural hair has allowed me to focus on other things besides my hair even though it takes much maintenance. I do like to apply makeup but I dont rely on it. I like to focus on my beautiful eyes. I never noticed them or my full lips because I was too focused on my chemically enhanced straight hair. 

I still focus on my kinky curls by using different shampoos and conditioner once the previous is finished. I have found some products that I love using like Organix "coconut milk" conditioner because it brought out my natural curl and it smelled really delicious. I also like garnier fructis. It too brings out my curl and smells very nice but I really dont know why. LOL I mean its made for the white woman (I think) but it works so well in my thick, untamed, mind of her own, hair. Lastly, a product I bought from a health food store randomly called "beautiful curls" is something I use each time I wash my hair and its a shea butter sculpting wax and it does wonders. It keeps my curls in tact for days under the wildest circumstances. I try to use as least as possible because I dont know if I will ever find it again.

When it comes to makeup, I LOVE colossal lash and Falsies by Maybelline! I use them both to make my lashes appear longer and.... false. But oh so real! I use covergirl lash blast on my eyelashes to make them darker and fuller also so enhance the arch. Many times I am found with eyeliner on the bottom of my eye but I use blue eye shadow for my eyeliner. LOL... depending on where I am going, I will use my Victoria Secret blush because it has a slight glitter finish creating the illusion of higher cheek bones (might just be in my mind) haha.. but nonetheless I love it. I wear foundation but not often. Only for special events or occasions. Lipstick, I wear a soft pink by MAC followed by a nude gloss by Victoria Secret. Everything I put on is very natural, nothing over the top. 

Unless I wear my red lipstick *wink*



No matter what I am wearing...I will always be
Me <3

Raising a Toast to Me

You got everything, tell me what it feels like! This is my first post of the new year  so it will be my diary entry.. and I wanted to reflect on the blessings from previous years and speak into existence the manifestation of my wildest dreams for 2012 and beyond. 
IN 2011the grand finale made everything all worth it.
So worth it that...It lay the foundation for the rest of my life.
I can do anything and nobody can tell me otherwise THE END.

Sometimes I dream bigger than I live.
My dreams are written on paper 
and I know Im gonna real life them.
F A I T H

I will get my Masters very soon and that will solidify that
the world belongs to me.
Its nothing or no one I cant have.
I understand my worth and I know Im the best of His creations.

C O N V I N C E D
