I think social media today can be very damaging to the self image of app users. For example, I think Instagram took a great stride in the right direction by giving users the option to hide number of likes they receive on their posts. I think that going back to the root of social media's intent - human connection - will foster a more wholesome, uplifiting environment for all parties involved.

Primarily Tik Tok and YouTube! I find beauty content to be relayed the best via video (as opposed to a blog format, for example). Seeing the products in motion and in use- especially on creators with a similar skin tone to me- is extremely helpful and beneficial for me as a consumer.

Journaling is a major part of my daily routine. Not only do I feel most at peace with my mind and thoughts when I do it, but I feel I can be my most creative, organized self when my thoughts are inked on the page. Finding an outlet for me to fuel my passion for living an inspired life, gain mental clarity, and organzie my day to day life has been truly life changing since I began journaling. Shoutout to the pandemic for forcing me to connect more deeply with my thoughts and create a home between two leather covers for my wildest hopes and dreams!!
