My name is Zainab. I am a second-generation immigrant from The Gambia & Senegal, located in West Africa. I am also a graduate of Queens College in Flushing, NY and hold a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology as well as Middle Eastern Studies, with a minor in Arabic.
For those that know me well or have known me long enough, they know my passion (dare I say, obsession) for makeup, skincare & hair care. When you would see me, you knew you’d see a full beat on my face, whether it was full glam or a no-makeup makeup look. I first started wearing makeup to cover up dark spots, acne & any other imperfection here & there. Then slowly it became a way for me to express myself & hone in on my creative side.
Growing up, I dealt with eczema, dry skin as well as acne & hyperpigmentation. Being that my skin was very fragile and sensitive, I could only use natural products & I had to be very careful with what I put on my skin. Using the wrong thing would cause me to have severe allergic reactions. I have tried everything from well known high-end expensive products, to the affordable drugstore products. Almost none of them have worked for me and products that contained chemicals and/or steroids were too harsh on my delicate skin. I had to do extensive research on what would work well naturally, but also would not be harsh or abrasive for my skin. Finally, I found/created what worked for me. I was able to formulate products that were all natural, safe, good for the skin & suitable for all skin types, that also tackle issues like acne, hyper-pigmentation, etc. These products are really beneficial for the hair as well, being that the ingredients are all natural.
Having clear healthy skin allowed me to not have to worry about covering up imperfections & also allowed for a smooth & flawless makeup application when I do decide to wear makeup. I think it’s important to love our skin & be comfortable in it.
