WE ARE ONYX

WE ARE ONYX

This was sooooo fun and cool!

There's no one way to express black beauty. And y'all already know: I don't do "pretty". So shoutout to Onyx Box for including me in the #GenerationONYX campaign that celebrates the broad spectrum of beautiful black womanhood, including us odd-bodies 😉 (upper left corner)

Dontcha just love how my eye makeup was doing the absolute most? I know I did! So shoutout to Tiana Rae Holiday for that - she gave me some really great pointers on how to apply lashes without looking like a total amateur. Goal: get great as falsies by the end of the year.

By the way, here's the inspiration for this image:

Homegirl who was inspo for my specific look got the short shrift in this. Anyway, not to engage in too much hyperbole, but being a part of this campaign made me feel a little, you know, like I'm part of some kind of beauty history.

JUST LET ME HAVE THIS MOMENT!
