Being Secure In What You Do- Ipsy Creator Day!

Hey SSB Fam!

So, this past Friday I was invited by Ipsy to Creator Day 2018. This is my second Creator Day invite and I am so grateful. I’m exhausted too, but I wanted to stay up and write this post in real time HAHA. Every year Gen Beauty comes around and each time I take time to reflect. Not reflect on my subscriber count, how I “leveled up”, but just self-growth.

I don’t know if I mentioned this before, but I have been blogging for five years now. I feels like a long time, however I changed my purpose and finally got settled into who I am in the blog world about two years ago. You guys know that my main focus in’t beauty. I love a good (well, great) beat, but I know that life is so much more. I refuse to be “that influencer” posting multiple perfect photos with no substance. My faith, encouraging people and inspiring people means a lot to me.

However was that always comfortable to say? No.

You see, I always felt like the odd ball when I would give people my business card that had a cross and a scripture. I definitely thought to myself, “maybe this isn’t my space- being a faith beauty lifestyle blogger“. It wasn’t that I was denying God, but I felt that I had to keep the two separate. This time around, I was so confident when telling people about what I do (my faith included). Brands actually loved that I was able to incorporate my faith and was curious as to how I do so.

I say this to say, be secure in who you are. Just like the word says “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?”. I would be crazy to gain a whole bunch of followers, yet lose the most important part of myself. I want to represent me and encourage others along the way. If that is not a brand or person’s cup of tea, so be it. Purpose needs to drive what I do. It’s the reason why I started this blog, why I share my struggles, the reason why I teach today.

It was definitely the Holy Spirit’s work within me that caused me to be this confident and secure in SoulStyleBeauty. I may not be the biggest influencer, but I sure will be helping others with what I do. I encourage you guys to have a why behind what you do and continuously visit that. Be Encouraged!

Keep fighting daily.

Love y’all!

Date Night! 🥂 🤎🌹 In a marriage, date nig Date Night! 🥂 🤎🌹

In a marriage, date nights are a necessity. It doesn’t have to be grand either. I definitely is a form of non-physical intimacy. Hubby and I do this twice a month at least. Here’s where we we went:

@tatianabychefkwame - y’all, I was so happy and grateful that hubby and I ate here. I was so afraid that we wouldn’t get a seat because they are booked out and we were running late. I was two seconds from saying forget it, but Jose said “nope, we’re trying. I prayed.” We got a seat and everything was a 10/10 from the service to the music and the food. I want to book a reservation ASAP.

@citywinerynyc - I’m a sucker for live music and a concert. That’s how we bonded in our beginning stages. I heard @officialjonb was performing, so I had to go. I love me some 90’s R&B y’all!

We had a blast! This night just went so smoothly. If you’re in a relationship/married, how often do you date each other?

For the glam days, when I need my makeup to stay o For the glam days, when I need my makeup to stay on this doesn’t disappoint! Loving the @onesize On ‘Til Dawn Setting spray! Here’s what I love:

💫 It’s mattifying without being drying. Who likes thief face to feel super thick? I know I don’t.
💫 It’s long lasting. It keep your makeup in place for a long time. When you first apply, it it amazing at being transfer proof.
💫 It goes on super light and doesn’t ruin product placement. I love that!

Run, don’t walk!

Gloomy days and new nails ☁️. French, but let Gloomy days and new nails ☁️. 
French, but let’s make it abstract.
First, if you know me you know I love Jhene. W.A.Y First, if you know me you know I love Jhene. W.A.Y.S is my song!!!

If I would say I never think about giving up I’d be lying 😂. Life be life’ing. Thankfully, every morning you have a chance to restart and to commit to the habits that will propel you forward. 

Here are somethings that keep me grounded:

-A routine- I like structure and routine. It’s funny because my husband is the total opposite 😂. God knows I needed someone that is more spontaneous. It’s needed. A routine, but flexibility is always needed.
-My Faith- my life is a whole testimony and as long as I have breath I know it’s because of God. 
-My Skincare- Your canvas is so important, so make sure you prioritize making sure your skin is taken care of. We love a beat face over here though. 
-Feeding my Mind- Reading has been big for me this year and I’ll some books have really been transformative. I’ll share more about my recommendations in another reel.
-My Health- Health is wealth. So make sure to take gave a good balance. Prioritize it.
P.S

I’m changing my content. I’m not a celebrity, nor do I desire fame. I’m a normal person. Everything isn’t perfect, grand or spectacular. I’m okay with that too.
