Side note: I may never wear these sandals outside because they’re just too cute to risk getting dirty. Ya know the color white attracts the most dirt 😩. @ Los Angeles, California

⁣I had every intention of recording some content today. But as luck would have it, my LAST pair of eyelashes JUMPED out of my hand and landed right in the toilet 😔. ⠀

Moral of the story: Keep your eyelash stash replenished and away from toilets 😩

Can anyone help me make sense of this? Anybody? ⠀

Unfortunately, this is far too common in this industry. There’s a CLEAR disparity between what black influencers and non-black influencers are being compensated for collaborations. Here are a few questions I’d love for us to have an open dialogue about:⠀
⠀
✨ Do you feel like you’re being paid your worth for collaborations?⠀
✨ Do you ordinarily have conversations with other influencers about rates?⠀
✨ How can we close the compensation gap between black and white influencers?⠀
⠀
Thank you ladies for bringing this conversation to the forefront 🙌🏾🙌🏾

We are BLACK WOMEN! WE MOST DEFINITELY HAVE A VOICE! We don’t tear down other BLACK WOMEN! We have felt the pain of NOT BEING HEARD! & we have decided we will be deliberate about building others! If I didn’t tag you, please don’t be offended. I tried picking people I thought would do this challenge! All too often, we find it easier to criticize each other, instead of building each other up! With all the negativity going around let’s do something positive!! 💫Upload 1 picture of yourself. Only you, then tag as many sisters to do the same. Let’s build ourselves up, instead of tearing ourselves down! 💛💛 copy and paste 💛💛 if I tagged you
