Confidence

Bold + Beautiful – Kelly Rowland Graces The Pages of People Mag, Makeup LESS and NBzA Talks Beauty & Skin Care Regimen

Have you figured out the perfect skin care regimen that can have you leaving the house with 100% no makeup and still feel confident and secure? Me either. But I know it’s out there and with trial and error, I’m definitely on the road to finding it. Kelly Rowland recently graced the pages of People Magazine to be featured on the “Most Beautiful” list. And that she is. “I started wearing makeup at 14 for Destiny’s Child,” says Rowland, who’s releasing her solo album Talk a Good Game in June. “I remember the first time I saw my lashes with mascara on them – it was my favorite thing. For me, makeup reminds me of work. Without it, I feel natural and untouched.”

But I’m no Kelly Rowland. I’ve had problematic skin for quite some time now. For me, growing up I’ve never quite needed or wanted to wear make-up as a normal thing. With the occasional mascara and lipgloss I was good to go. You see, living and growing up in California, the moisture from the Ocean was the perfect touch of happiness and glow that a girl needed to add to her skin care routine but I made a big move to Las Vegas where there is nothing but desert and 100+ degree weather and boy oh boy, my skin suffered because of that. For a long time the lack of the right healthcare insurance discouraged me from visiting Dermatologist and over the years I found things that would work but if it wasn’t the occasional break-outs, it was the dark spots and hyper-pigmentation from the sun and old acne scars. So it became a revolving door. Once I  was fortunate to find employment with good health benefits, I took an interest in a more natural approach to healing. But for that it’s never certain either. One minute I’m fine and the next I don’t want to leave my house.

I know our appearance, especially our skin is our pride and joy and people judge you based off of face value before you even open your mouth. So as important as skin care is, a few things I’ve noticed that definitely help to simplify my skin care routine and gives me better results is:

  • Drinking 1 Gallon of Water Daily
  • Sweating as much as possible (working out, hot yoga, face steaming)
  • Eating more Fruits and Veggies
  • Toning with Witch Hazel
  • Lemon Mask (3x’s a week)
  • 2 Fish Oil Gel Tablets (daily)
  • SIMPLE Moisturizing Cleanser
  • Aveeno Positively Radiant Moisturizer (w/SPF 15)

So far that’s it for me. I use different products here and there but I haven’t fallen in love with many. Let’s open this up for discussion, what skin care regimen do you swear by and what are some tips you would like to share that has helped you with your skin problems (if any)?

“It’s easy to pretend ‘to be fierce and fearless because living your truth takes real courage.” Gabrielle Unions Heartfelt Speech

Tue, April 23, 2013 2 Comments by Miss Daja

gabrielle-union-6th-annual-essence-black-women-in-hollywood-luncheon-02

Last month Gabrielle Union gave a speech at the Essence’s Black Women In Hollywood Luncheon. And after reading her speech, it made me gain another type of love for her. Now we’ve seen her work all over the big screen and we have also seen parts of her love life displayed all over the media whether we wanted to or not.  But that doesn’t take away from her being human.

I personally agreed with Gabrielle’s honesty and have found myself in situations similar. With different backgrounds and scenarios yes, but as a woman feeling as though I didn’t measure up to my peers, it took a long time for me to find my own lane and stick to it. Thank you Gabby for sharing your heart with us.

Gabrielle-Union-Black-Women-In-Hollywood-Luncheon

“We live in a town that rewards pretending. I had been pretending to be fierce and fearless for a very long time. I was a victim masquerading as a survivor. I stayed when I should have run. I was quiet when I should have spoken up. I turned a blind eye to injustice instead of having the courage to stand up for what’s right. I used to shrink in the presence of other dope beautiful women. I used to revel in gossip and rumors, and I lived for the negativity inflicted upon my sister actresses or anyone who I felt whose shine diminished my own.

It’s easy to pretend to be fierce and fearless because living your truth takes real courage.

Real fearless and fierce women admit mistakes and they work to correct them. We stand up and we use our voices for things other than self promotion. We don’t stand by and letracism and sexism and homophobia run rapid on our watch. Real fearless and fierce women compliment other women and we recognize and embrace that their shine in no way diminishes our light and that it actually makes our light shine brighter.

So many of us in this room are sisters. We don’t always get to see each other and its good to see you here today. Women who we’ve laughed with, cried with, and struggled with, thank you for not turning your back on me.

Thank you for not tap dancing on my misery, even when I wasn’t always returning the favor.”

GIRL TALK || Women’s History Month Q&A w/some of your Favorite Social Media Influences

Mon, March 25, 2013 2 Comments by Miss Daja

womenshistorymonth copy

1.  WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT BEING A WOMAN?

Tisha Jade: I don’t think people fully understand the power and beauty that lies in being a woman. I love that we have the privilege to carry and bring life into this world. I love our capacity to love. I love that we can do everything a man can do, and more, while wearing a pair of six inch heels.

Brittney Parker:  I love that we’re strong no matter what. It is known for the male to be head of the household, strong (physically), and the provider. Women are mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually fit. Just like Beyonce said “We bare the children, then get back to business” (paraphrased). I love that I have been able to build myself up in the things that are good for me. Being called smart and THEN beautiful is something I love about being a woman.

Tae Merida: Being Seductive and Sensual. Women are beautiful in all aspects; but it’s something about a woman’s “spice” that makes her even more intriguing.

Ashlay Cashlay: One thing I love most is the way a bad ass pair of heels makes me feel.

Love Darbie: I simply love the power in our femininity. I love our ability to create life, I adore our inner strength, and I praise our motivation to change the status quo of womanhood. Plus we have the the ability to get fabulous in some awesome heels and red lipstick.

Mia: I love the strength of a woman, how we’re looked at as meek and mild but in reality can carry more weight than a male. It’s our secret weapon.

Telisha: I love being a woman because we are so multidimensional. When we think of masculinity we think of a dominating and competitive energy. As a woman I can be soft, strong, submissive, and competitive all in a day. I can run things as an entrepreneur then come home and be submissive to my man. I love it, being a woman is ever evolving, exciting and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

2. IF IT WERE POSSIBLE FOR MEN TO EXPERIENCE ONE THING ABOUT BEING A WOMAN, WHAT RESPONSIBILITY WOULD YOU HAND OVER WITH NO PROBLEM?

Tisha Jade: I’m not really sure I would. Sure it would be easier if men could experience some of the things we go through, or help with the responsibilities, but I believe that all the roles of the woman are rightfully placed. As much as we may dislike certain things, there’s beautiful harmony when the roles of the man and woman are fulfilled.

Brittney Parker: Simple. Bare children. That is probably one thing that men cannot experience besides the curse Eve put on us. True, they experience daddy weight, a little bit of emotional hormonal imbalances BUT carrying, growing, & then birthing a child — a man needs to fully understand LOL.

Tae Merida: Our addiction to chocolate!! A woman’s relationship with chocolate is pretty REAL. Its our go-to feel good food, and the form of a male replacement.

Ashlay Cashlay: Honestly, I wouldn’t hand over anything.  I love being a woman and everything that goes along with it.

Love Darbie: Monthly cycles! Cramps and bloating included.

Mia: I want to say bearing a child but I’ve never experienced that first hand, I just know what I’ve seen heard sooooooooo I’d say I’d want them to experience how women get “hollered at” They need to see how they come at us so that some of them can come better/correct lol

Telisha: I would hand over the responsibility of  physical maintenance. Seriously being fly and healthy adds up!

3. WHAT IS ONE THING YOU WISH WOMEN WOULD DO MORE OF? AND ONE THING YOU WISH WOMEN WOULD DO LESS OF?

Tisha Jade: I wish women would spend less time checking for the next female, and invest more time in building self love, and confidence in themselves. It seems like that it’s always a competition between women. We’re always comparing, and judging each other. We always have to be one-up. Women who feel more confident within themselves are less vulnerable to feeling threatened by their female friends. What if we just empowered each other more, and supported one another? What a force we would be.

Brittney Parker: I wish women would love themselves more. The understanding and action of loving ourselves has been confused over the course of years — maybe even decades. I say this because women are more in tune with buying themselves ‘love’. Instead of seeking it within themselves. Secondly, I wish women would blame themselves less. Stop making excuses. I could go in on that but I’ll leave it there.

Tae Merida: I wish woman would be more adventurous and less fearful. Women tend to second guess and overanalyze situations, instead of just taking that initial leap of faith! #YOLO. Blame it on our “woman’s intuition”.

Ashlay Cashlay: Be more supportive of one another and less “picking apart” of one another.

Love Darbie: I wish more women would challenge the norm. I’m currently studying Computer Science in university and I would love to see the number of women graduating with computer science degrees reach more than 11%! On the other hand, I wish women would do away with the self-hating. Between the media’s pressures and our own inner conscious, our vision of beauty has been so altered. Learn to realize that our flaws and perfect imperfections make us beautiful.

Mia: I wish women would unite more. We need to befriend, support, take up for and pray for one another more. Women should do less self-deeming things as we already have a hard time with those deeming things that are inflicted upon us unwillingly.

Telisha: I wish we would take a stand for each other more often. Aside from striving for our own success I wish we would also take on the responsibility of ensuring our sisters are also successful. I wish we would do less of putting our needs and desires on the back burner. If you are an unfulfilled woman you are not doing your co-workers, family or lover any good. When a woman’s energy and happiness is at it’s highest level its contagious.

4. FINISH THIS SENTENCE.. WOMEN MAKE THE WORLD GO ROUND AND MEN MAKE THE…

Tisha Jade: money? Sad, but true. The harsh reality is women take the backseat when it comes to finical equality. We earn less than men overall, and the pay gap only increases as we get older.

Brittney Parker: Can I change that? LOL. I would say, “Men make the world go round and a damn good woman adds years onto his life, to continue the process” there is nothing wrong with submission.

Tae Merida: woman’s libido go round.

Ashlay Cashlay: Men make the pursuit of building an empire much more worth while. In my opinion you begin to notice the level of respect shift. To me,  you gain more respect towards yourself as well as the respect from others.

Telisha: world a more safe secure and sexy place with all that intoxicating masculinity we love so much.

5. WHO ARE SOME FABULOUS LADIES THAT YOU LOOK UP TO AND WHY?

Tisha Jade: I look up to Beyonce, Michelle Obama, Karen Civil, and most importantly my mother and grandmothers. They’re all strong, independent, genuine, ambitious, loving, compassionate women. They are the epitome of godly women and serve the role as a mother, wife, and friend.

Brittney Parker: Wow. I’m going to give my immediate five. 1. Janet Jackson 2. Kerri Washington 3. Karen Civil 4. Tasha Smith 5. Myself :)

Tae Merida: B E Y O N C E.  - she’s “spicy”, creative, passionate, poise, devoted, driven, genuine, and one of a kind. She is an inspiration to all woman, and an example that through dedication you can truly be the best at what you aspire to be in life.

Ashlay Cashlay: Women who are in pursuit of building an empire for the obvious reasons above. Respect.

Love Darbie: Michelle Obama & Sheryl Sandberg – They’re educated, powerful,  and influential! What’s not to look up to?

Mia: Of course I look up to my mom. Im a spitting image and reflection of her. I also admire Solange’s style, Madame C J Walker’s brilliance for hair care, Victoria’s Beckham’s fierce,  my grandmother’s strength, Beyonce’s spirit and Josephine Baker’s talent. to name a few. :)

Telisha: Every woman who crosses my path, even if she is miserable and rude, I look up to in some way. We feed off of each other, well at least we should be. That miserable lady culd turn out to be the sweetest person, there’s always more to a person than the surface. My role models are Michelle Obama, Beyonce (I’m not a stan though, let’s get that clear), and Eartha Kitt for now…My role model list changes weekly depending on my mood.

No Boiz Allowed Introduces Pretty Ego

Fri, March 15, 2013 4 Comments by Fashion Fridays With Naomi

pego

At No Boiz Allowed we strive to promote the positive woman. This also includes FASHION! With so many online boutique’s these days, it becomes hard to decide just where to spend your hard earned money. Why not put your money into the pockets of a positive business woman? NBzA would like to introduce an up and coming online boutique, Pretty Ego! With the motto, “You don’t have to spend thousands of dollars to be fashionable. Pretty Ego is a unique boutique that provides high quality fashionable apparel & accessories to fit anyone’s budget” you can’t go wrong! Offering Chanel Inspired pieces, an assortment of leggings and printed bodycon dresses as well as unique accessories, Pretty Ego is a one stop shop for your online shopping needs. Prices currently range from $7.50-$65.00 and arrive in pretty pink packages! The CEO also wears several of the pieces herself. We got the chance to catch up with the San Diego CEO Risa to get an exclusive interview as she introduces her line and tells us about her first time experience at her own pop-up shop and at this years Magic Convention in Las Vegas!

viewer

1. Risa, give us a little background on yourself and what inspired you to become a business woman?
Well I have been on my own since I was 16, so I have always been a go getter. I have always juggled 2 jobs to make sure my bills are always paid. I started modeling, doing a few magazines and videos and generated a small buzz from that. I dare to be different. I hate fitting in or being the same as everyone else. People began to compliment me on my style and were always asking where I got my clothes from or asking me to style them so I figured I would give them what they asked for. I have always wanted to start a business I just woke up one day and said ok today is the day I get the ball rolling and that’s how Pretty Ego was born. I have always handled my business and have never been a lazy person.

2. How do you balance your daily life with managing a business?
It’s hard to own a business and still have time for school and relationships. Luckily for me I have living, supportive, understanding people in my circle so they understand my crazy schedule. I rarely have time for me but it has always been business before pleasure for me. My priorities have and always will be in check. I take care of the most important things first and the rest gets done when time permits.

3. What is your advice for anyone who wants to start their own business in fashion?
Don’t copy other people because what works for one person may not work for you. Nothing comes easy. If you don’t grind you don’t eat! If you aren’t tired at the end of the day you need to work harder.

4. Who is the Pretty Ego customer? Who does your brand speak to?
My brand speaks to the working woman, the busy mothers, the full time student, the hustlers and the fashion addicts. Everyone has a “pretty ego” regardless of their shape, size or skin color. Some woman wear a suit all day, carry around a backpack or diaper bag. Pretty ego boutique offers my customers a chance to get dressed up in some dope gear and get pretty to go out and enjoy themselves after handling their big girl duties. It’s an alter ego..one side of you is handling your priorities and your other ego is a pretty mufxxa that wanna dress up and go have fun! Lol

544614_205055946307052_1913803729_n

5. What can we expect for the future of Pretty Ego?
My men’s line launching spring/summer 2013 and a brand new woman’s line, along with a full website make over!

6. How successful was your first “pop up” shop?
Very successful! It was nice to see women getting together to support one another. Shout out to “B’Swank” and “Body by NC”.

7. What did you do mentally to prepare for this event and what would you do differently next time around?
All I had time to do was mentally prepare lol . It was so last minute and I had a ton of things going on I was not able to fully prepare how I wanted. Thankfully my sister was able to help me, next time I would definitely plan better as far as little details and promo goes.

8. What was your favorite part of this event, least favorite?
Favorite part of the event was promoting my brand to people who didn’t know about us prior to the pop up shop. The least favorite part was standing up for 4 hours in 6 inch heels lol

9. Las Vegas Magic Convention is coming up and this will be your first appearance as well, how are you feeling about this event?
Excited and nervous!! Eeeek!
(we have spoken to her since as she concluded it was a success and lots of fun!)

10. NBzA promotes the positive woman, what is one thing that PrettyEgo and/or yourself does to do the same?
I am always supporting women as far as giving business advice or any other kind of wisdom I can offer. I am always supporting woman who are doing positive things. Pretty Ego is making a Brest Cancer Awareness shirt for Breast Cancer month and 100% of the proceeds will go to Susan G Kolmen Foundation towards finding a cure. Pretty Ego also donates at can food drives, toys for tots and we are always looking to get more involved in charity work.

The Confident Woman – Are You Her?

Wed, January 23, 2013 4 Comments by Miss Daja

theconfidentwoman copyHave you ever walked into a room full of women and the majority were standing around looking as if they were above the crowd until this beautiful, confident woman walks in and all eyes are on her? Yes, it happens quite often. But the question I usually have is, are you mad at the woman whom takes pride in knowing she can grab the attention of the room? Or are you upset with yourself because you feel that you can’t? You want to know the difference between you and her?

Confidence is simply knowing who you are and what you’re capable of doing. Confident women are aware of their weaknesses but they don’t give energy to that part of life. They enhance their strengths and become the best at it. Confident women are sure of their flaws and become comfortable enough with it so other people aren’t able to use the flaws against them. Is this you? Are you confident?

This is where I encourage my family, friends and blog readers to spend a lot of time with yourself. Get to know your authentic self. This is where character is built. When tough situations arise, your moment is defined. So yes, it’s okay to put yourself in uncomfortable situations so that you’re able to learn new things about yourself and challenge yourself to always do your best.

Of course I can’t end this blog without giving you a few exercises.

CONFIDENCE EXERCISE || Make a list of your strengths – What are you good at? What are you great at? Write those things down. How can you get better? Are you spending too much time focused on your weaknesses? Are you making money from your strength(s)? If not, next to each strength listed, jot down ways to create income from it. Ex:

STRENGTH: Communication – coaching, tutor, motivational speaker, mentor, PR, etc

Make a list of your weaknesses – outsource them. Find ways to eliminate or pay someone to do the job for you. If you know that you are not strong, good or have time to waste on Graphic Designing, hire someone to design your flyers, business cards and future images so that you aren’t wasting time or taking away time to be great in another area.

Instead of wasting time focusing on your weaknesses, sometimes it isn’t worth it. I was taught to enhance my 7′s into 10′s instead of focusing on turning my 2′s into 5′s. (on a scale of strengths)

So now that you have acknowledged your weaknesses and understand where your greatness lies, it’s time to put things into action. Then and only then will you begin to see a difference in your confidence. Knowing what you know now, are you the woman with or the woman without confidence?

IN YOUR OPINION, WHAT IS A CONFIDENT WOMAN?

One Thing I Learned From Beyonce’ in Her GQ Spread – All Business Women Must Read

Sat, January 12, 2013 4 Comments by Miss Daja


While all eyes were on Beyonce’s racy photos in her GQ spread this week, the real tea was served in the interview she did inside. One thing that stood out to me was the fact she records and archives every interview herself to avoid being misquoted. That is a great way to keep your image in tact because far too many times have we seen or heard celebrities lose fans or fight for their respect over something the media conjured up.

Writer Amy Wallace writes….Because the room in which you are sitting is rigged with a camera and microphone that is capturing not just her every utterance but yours as well. These are the ground rules: Before you get to see Beyoncé, you must first agree to live forever in her archive, too.

Say what you want about this woman but she is and has always been a business woman first. One in which if you study her long enough, you can learn something helpful that could potentially benefit you and your brand. Kudos to Beyonce’.

#ShesGotNext Women Under 40 Private Affair

Mon, January 7, 2013 4 Comments by Miss Daja


Over the weekend I was invited by a Phenomenal Woman by the name of Alicia Gibbs to her private event, She’s Got Next. Phenomenal Women under the age of 40; doing their own thing and making a difference — pass the baton! The room was filled with Small Business Owners, Entrepreneurs, Students and Grads, Mothers, Daughters, Sisters and whatever other category you can think of to describe a beautiful crowd of go-getters. We were there to network, connect and learn from those that had information to share. It was an intimate setting held at 221 Lounge inside of the JW Marriott Hotel. The room was filled with dim lights, sparked by perfectly glistening candles, with the aroma of fresh hors d’oeuvres (appetizers) and sounded out with the voices of women in search of a good time.

 And that it was. She’s Got Next was opened up with the introduction of our hosts. As they began to share their names as well as a little background information. The moment the first woman began to speak, I instantly knew that I was in the right place.  Alicia Gibbs then threw out conversation starter based questions. Women after women were standing with answers full of passion and even inspiration. Throughout the event, we shared laughs and a little bit of emotion. Business cards were exchanged, Instagrammed photos were snapped and friendships were created.

 10 books sponsored by Vegas EVibe were raffled off to participating guests. I was the first chosen and I won The Confident Woman by Joyce Meyer

Guests were invited to enjoy a Spa Day at The JW Marriott rewarding 30% to all customers.

Overall I would have to say that this was definitely the type of crowd that I was happy to be around. I was left pleased and filled with a refreshed mood. It just felt great to be amongst women who were making a difference in their community and when mouths were open and words were shared, it was that of value. I wasn’t sure if it was possible to be in a room full of women in Las Vegas, NV without their being some type of animosity between two, jealous stares and unpleasant frowns upon faces. But I was pleased to see the positivity, support and smiling faces upon strangers that were there for the same reason.

I definitely look forward to the next meet up. In the meantime, get familiar with Alicia Gibbs on Instagram and “like” She’s Got Next on Facebook.
