Didn’t think I would love writing for CBC Life as much as I do. I get to write about products that I love and actually use.I thoroughly enjoy it.

prevent hair damage

I’m not messing around with protecting my hair this winter. I fell off last year and had to deal with some damage. Part of my process is using protective styles like clip-ins, units and weaves. (Getting my first wig soon very excited!!)

How to use your regular makeup for Halloween

October 29, 2018

Every year I say I’m gonna do something for Halloween but it never happens. Growing up in the Caribbean we never trick or treated or dressed up or anything, so it’s just not in me. Also I think it’s too close to my birthday, so I’m always more focused on what I’ll do for my bday!

If you’re like me and you don’t really go all out for Halloween but you still want to do a little something. I have some suggestions for you! Continue Reading…
