Hello, YouTubers, or aspiring YouTubers, if you are reading this, then you are at the right place.  I started my channel a year ago and wasn't consistent until the global pandemic. It gave me the chance I needed to get on with my channel and believe me when I say the lockdown wasn't a bad idea because it paved the way for my consistency so far on YouTube. Having a Youtube channel and growing is a process that cannot be overlooked, that's if you want to partake in the process.  Here is a video I filmed concerning this topic on Youtube.

Clear and radiant skin isn't gotten overnight. You have to deliberately do what's required with of course patience. You have to wait for at least 4-6  weeks to notice a difference. There are steps to achieving clear skin and to get results, you have to orderly follow them.   Before I itemise the steps, do you know your skin type? It's paramount in achieving your desired skin goal.  We have dry skin, oily skin, normal skin, sensitive skin and combination skin.  Which one is yours?

As a professional makeup artist, trying out different products is definitely a must for me. I have been in the makeup industry for about seven years now and I have come across hundreds of makeup brands. Today, I will name seven brands I know that are really inexpensive and also of good quality.  Personally, I have tried these brands so it's not a guess list.  These makeup products will not clog your pores, neither would it cause any skin infection whatsoever. If you breakout using these products, then perhaps your skin lacks the appropriate care it needs. Quite a lot of women tend to blame their skin problems on makeup products. Well, you shouldn't. Before condemning the brand or product, try a skincare routine and see what happens. A skincare routine entails drinking lots of water, sleeping on a clean pillow sheet, cleansing the face twice a day, exfoliating three times a week, using a face toner and lastly a moisturizer suitable for your skin type.  I will share my skincare r

First off, an offence is taken not given. We can decide today to not be hurt. We can ignore the urge to feel offended if we decide to react to things differently. An offence is when you're upset or hurt because someone has been rude or disrespectful. I know sometimes people can be unbearable but if you react negatively to situations all the time, you're only stealing your peace of mind. People get offended because they feel attacked but do you know you can resist this urge and become a better version of yourself? Keep reading. Taking offence means you are pissed at something. Pride also plays a huge role when it comes to taking offence. One thing is sure, you would get wrinkled easily if all you do is take offence at the slightest things.

Do you have a problem with your oily skin? Oily skin can be a problem sometimes, especially when you go out into the sun. It won't let you slay your makeup but at least you get to shine. If you have oily skin, then your t-zone area will be greasy most of the time, which is mainly the forehead, nose, and chin. The good thing about this is that you would hardly suffer from wrinkles or dryness of the skin. Rather, your face gets to feel youthful and glitzy. One simple way to manage excess oil on the face/skin is to use skincare products meant for your skin type.

Positivity breeds productivity in any work environment. When we decide to be optimistic about our work, the constructive output is expected. Being positive opens up the mind to credence. Optimistic staff believes that anything is possible and achievable. In this day and time, one must surround themselves with positive vibes to thrive. Never say it is not possible until you have tried it. Don't let assumptions steal the one chance you might have had to make a difference where you work. It is definitely not easy to be optimistic all the time but it is absolutely plausible. Always weigh options rather than settling for negative feedback. No matter how hard it is to sell a product as a salesperson, never trivialize it. If it has been sold before, then it can still be sold. Just because it hasn't been bought for a few days, doesn't mean it will never be sold. Find out its selling point and market it. Everything has a selling point so use it to your advantage. Cultivate

What do you understand by contentment? Contentment is a state of happiness and satisfaction. It is perhaps drawn from being at ease with your entire being.  Lack of contentment is a fragment of ungratefulness. People tend to easily forget where they are coming from and what they never had. Contentment is finding happiness in what we already have in our lives. It is showing satisfaction with our possessions, situation or status quo. "Contentment is natural wealth, luxury is artificial poverty." - Socrates To be content is at all, not an easy task.  The world we live in doesn't help, right? We find ourselves competing with colleagues, friends and even family members. We want what they have, then when we have it, we seek for more. Why is that? They say humans are never satisfied because of the quest to prove one's worthiness but do you know discontent is a great barrier to fully live a simple and happy life? Why do you need to prove anything to anyone? We ar
