_Update | 2012 and on we go!

Happy New Year!!!!

Well, now that's out of the way. This year, I'll be keeping up two Youtube channels and this lovely blog, by God's grace. On one channel, will be a fashion, skin and make-up channel. On the other, my hair care journey continues.

In truth, I was going through an old computer to compile pictures to make a video on my hair journey! Be ready for lots of scraggly haired pics! lol!
However, as I scrolled through the pics, I also realized my skincare journey is also on these same pics.

Acne is a dirty word to me but, alas, it's been a reality since I turned 14! It seemed to calm down a bit around age 21-22 then returned with a vengeance with a change in climate: UK Autumn to Californian Summer!
Needless to say, that was when I started wearing make-up!

There is only one slight advantage to acne...it makes you look younger than you are....16, say! I was not pleased to be carded for it though.

I won't bore you with the details but suffice it to say, very little has worked on my skin. What does work, there is a time limit to how long you can use it. These thoughts were still dancing in my head when I saw this video by Shannon from ThoseGirlsAreWild. See what you think?

My  new (second) channel is NewAfricanQueen and it should be up-and-running in a couple of weeks, God-willing!
