Beauty Muse: Janet Jackson

April 3, 2020 By in Beauty Tags: , , , , , Leave a comment

I grew up listening to Janet Jackson’s soulful voice on the radio. Her voice is unmistakable. I always know a Janet Jackson’s track once I hear it. Apart from being a talented singer and dancer, she is also a beauty muse. It is hard to believe this stunning woman is 53 years old. She could easily pass for a woman in her early 40s. I love her facial features. She is blessed with a spotless skin and amazing physique. I would love to be a fly on her wall to spy on how she takes care of her skin. Her skincare secrets would be wanted by many.

Janet Jackson is a natural. She is one of the lucky people to look amazing with or without makeup. I did a bit of digging and found some of her beauty/skincare tips from the lips of her makeup artist – Preston Meneses. Here they are –

Makeup Tips

Citing “a little contouring on the cheeks”, “a wash of bronze over the eyes” and some face-flattering winged eyeliner as the reasons behind her youthful appearance, the long-term employee of the singer stressed the transformative power of make-up.

Janet Jackson’s makeup is always looking amazing. Preston Meneses does a terrific job on her. It would be lovely to watch him do his thing on her face.

What does beauty look like to Janet Jackson

“It’s vulnerability. Beauty is power. It’s confidence. It’s happiness. It’s seeing the goodness in the soul. It’s spirituality. It’s being selfless and what you do for others before doing for yourself.”

I agree  Beauty is a lot more than the skin and what we see with our naked eyes.
I would have loved to learn more about Jackson’s beauty and skincare secrets. She is a true beauty; definitely a beauty muse and I am a huge fan.

March 29, 2020 By in Beauty Tags: , , , , , , , 2 Comments

I have started paying extra attention to my nails and hair, and they are both looking great! It just proves that what you focus on will definitely thrive.  My hair was in a terrible shape some years ago. Chemicals damaged my hair badly, and it was weak and dull. I decided to grow my hair natural and I am thankful I made that decision. It took a few years to get my hair looking good again. I tried various products and tricks to bring my hair back to life and I finally found a hair routine that works great for my hair. My hair is now growing like weed and I now able to wear my natural hair in different ways. My nails were also very weak and brittle, but that is no longer the case. Having a good diet does help the nails and help grow healthy and strong. Here are some of the best foods for nails and hair.

Best Foods for Nails

Our nails need calcium and silicon. These can be found in diary products but also in eggs, oats, sardines, sesame seeds and nuts. Ginger, gingko biloba and garlic also help in circulation, which in turn helps the nails stay healthy and look beautiful. The white flecks on the nails are caused by zinc deficiency. You can top up your zinc with oysters. A zinc multivitamin will also help your nails and overall health. Drinking water helps keep the nails from drying out, so keep drinking the recommended amount of water everyday.

Best Foods for Hair

Our hair is one of the first parts of our body to show a nutrient deficiency. If you want your hair looking healthy and shiny, you have to ensure your diet is balanced. For hair growth, Iron is what you need the most. You can get this from dark green vegetables, red meat, dried fruit and the likes. Omega 3 essential fatty acids foods like flax seeds, almonds and oily fish are also great for helping the hair grow strong and healthy. Water is also very important when it comes to healthy hair.
