Somebody once told
me that if you want to achieve something, you have to put it out there into the
universe. And I’m doing precisely that with this rather adventurous endeavour.
I’ve been thinking about it for years and I’ve only just found the courage to do
it. I’m doing this for two reasons - one is because I love talking about beauty
and two being that there are very few brown, Asian women in the YouTube space. Also, most
importantly, I’m doing this in the spirit of acceptance of self. Filming a
video barefaced for the whole world to see is disproportionately scary, but
also equally liberating. I wanted to keep the video as real as possible, so
I’ve done a barely-there makeup look that’s been my go-to for years. I’ve used
a mix of old favourites and some new discoveries – all listed in the
description box. It’s been a rather cathartic experience and I hope you enjoy
the quick three-minute video that’s taken me over 24 hours to film, edit and
upload.
