hi guysss, im so excited you get to be apart of this website launch and first published blog post!
ok where do i start? well, i go by Jazzy, and your Korean and Japanese skincare plug with a lil kawaii goodies in between. the inspiration to even venture into this avenue started with sunscreen, yes sunscreen. now i adventured into the infamous pennywise cosmetics for a bottle of sunscreen, mind you I've never worn it outside of a beach setting before in my life, so i was definitely a fish out of water. it only had about 3 or 4 options to choose from that didn't advertise for the beach and were spray cans. it had no sales rep so i had to rely on good ole google and YouTube, and i searched, i sure you do too, '' sunscreen for black girls'', ''foundation for dark skin'' or even '' can brown skin wear xyz''
i was struggling between Neutrogena, aveeno and another brand i cant even recall, i opted for the Neutrogena, with seeing them plastered in between my favourite shows on tv, i guess it was my best bet right?!
wrong! lol i was confident in my application, slathered it on my face, feeling great! and yall i went to work, i remember it as if it were yesterday, the amount stares i got, my first assumption was i had a wardrobe malfunction, no girl, my face was an artistic take of purple and grey. this was definitely my top 10 most embarrassing moments yall!
from there i tend to go into rabbit holes for information, i discovered kbeauty and the array of sunscreens and types! where was this all my lifeeeee. i know yall can attest to that statement lol
ok back to me lol, a lil background i graduated from UWI in 2019 majoring in Political Science and minors in Psychology and Social Development Policy and Planning. i always loved everything beauty i even am certified in lash extensions, ( page dropping soon!) and i do hair sometimessss
now this whole sunscreen experience occurred in 2020, where covid was jus a far off incident happening across the world, but it did eventually reach our doorsteps, and in consequence i lost my job, i know some of yall can definitly relate, and covid forced me to reinvent myself, take myself a bit more seriously, not jus write ideas in a book and daydream of endless opportunities but actully live one. as i got back on my feet and the first thing i did was curate kbeautyworld on Instagram in 2021, yall i didn't hesitate , all the doubts and hesitations revovling around persons not knowing about kbeauty or questions like ''who the hell uses snail mucus on their face''?? lol but indeed i found my people, yes you, the one reading this. thank you!
those who have ordered before, thank you! yall are some of the most sweetest people like omgggg
i like this blog thingy i can definitely express myself without the world limits of instagram, and i look forward to yall reading my reviews on upcoming products and simply growing!
xoxo, Jazzy
