Its never too late to find out about those who came before you to get you to where you are today. I officially began the search for my roots on my 25th birthday. It is something that has been on my mind since 2009. I've always wondered if there is more to me than what meets the eye and 23andMe truly proved that there is! I've always been keen to traveling, lots of excitement always ensued whenever the days to my next vacation started dwindling down. Now I know that my love for travel and cultures from all over the world probably stems from all the travels my ancestors did in the past.Nevertheless, I'm proud to say that I'm from all over the world!

What is your ethnicity or what do you think it is?

I look forward to hearing your thoughts down below.

I've been a fan of BlackPink for quite a while now. I wanted to pay tribute to my favorite member, Lisa, and did this video of one of her most famous makeup looks. This is from BlackPink's campaign to promote some popping lipsticks. Lisa's makeup is always flawless but she also likes to add a pop of of color to her looks by adding a vibrant lip color.

How did I do?

Dear fashionistas,

On May 9th, 2018 I turned 25 years old. It's hard to grasp the fact that I'm now a quarter of a century old. It's also funny I still recall the following words someone uttered to me: "after your fifteen birthday the years will flash before your eyes". And I must say that those words proved to be true. 
It seems like I closed my eyes and next thing I knew I opened them and I'm a year older. And no, by no means I'm complaining about this at all!

 I'm very grateful to have made it this far in my walk of life. I see each year as a blessing, I only wish I could do more at my age. I feel like I still have a long way to go in this "adulting phase" but for now I'm doing okay and learning more about myself as I go.

Love,

I have been a fan of Curlformer rollers since the start of my natural hair journey. The ones shown are actually imitation ones since I was unable to afford buying the real ones back then. After I tried them for quite some time I realized that these dupe ones worked just fine on my hair and I could not justify spending $60 more to get the real ones.
Years later, the Hydra Curlformer came into the picture and I used it for my wash n' gos as well as some twist-outs to achieve some curl definition. However, what I did not know until recently is that the Hydra Curlformer can also be used for straight styles such as blowouts, roller sets and roller sets! The idea for this video came from that realization, I wanted to test the pairing of both the Curlformer rollers and the Hydra Curllformer to see if my curls would be any different.

Below are my results of my fun experiment:
