self-doubt simply doesn't exist within me. no matter how impossible something seems or how hard it will be to achieve I'm always like "okay and?" and then I make it happen. maybe it's bc I have a proven track record of getting what I want but like nothing seems impossible to me. why would I doubt myself? I can have whatever I want, it's that simple. if other people have made it happen, that means it can be done so why would it not be able for me to get it too? no self-doubt. no need for it.
I used to write to make moots now I'm gonna start writing because I want to and because there is a shortage of drabbles π

β‘ after shower care
cocoa butter lotion and almond oil
perfume to uphold my signature scent
β‘ skin & hair care:
it removes impurities & build up, and dandruff. with my naturally sensitive scalp and wavy/curly hair, i am constantly bleaching my roots and changing the color of my hair so this is a must.
β‘ my skin care rules:
always, alwayssssss always sunscreen on my face, neck, and hands no matter the season and weather! so many forget the neck and hands too.
alwaysΒ enjoy this moment of pampering. say affirmations, play calming music, wear my silk robe bc iβm literally filming for vogue beauty secrets, complement myself in the mirror on how iβm the most beautiful person ever, iβm smart, kind, gentle, and resilient. iβm proud of myself and i will keep making history.
donβt rub your face roughly (or at all)
never touch your face. only after youβve washed your hands! after i wash my face i refuse to touch anything besides my face towel (thatβs kept out of the bathroom) donβt touch your phone, doorknobs, drawersβ¦ nothing.Β
if youβre applying moisturizer, massaging your face, or wiping off makeup with a cotton pad, always move upwards, never downwards.
be gentle with your face pls
always apply skincare on my neck and chestΒ
β‘ bi-weekly + monthly
root touch ups + color change
mani + pedi

here is a post with my skin care recommendations. note that i obvi donβt use all of these products at once. i usually rotate or use specific products depending on the season & weathers, and how iβm feeling.
this all isnβt really necessary for me because of my beauty manifestations but pampering is always a lovely routine i enjoy β‘ and i figured why not make a routine for those who want to know!
wanted to post this on it's own because i spent so much time on it...
why does my algo get fucked up when I follow someone? like I followed the for a reason, no need to show me posts from 5 years ago
