I created a black women's beauty magazine for my final project at University.
Going from University to hopefully a career in the media industry, I've told myself I wanted to start building my confidence, so hopefully posting on LinkedIn is a step in the right direction.
From not looking at magazines since sixth form to creating one for my final project, I was very nervous and unsure of myself. But I can confidently say I am proud of myself.
I am passionate about black women's representation in Eurocentric media, and knew I wanted to end my degree on something I would never forget. In the future, when people asked what I created, I wanted to talk about my topic with so much excitement and pride.
Black women are constantly undermined and underappreciated in mainstream media. Whether in front or behind the camera, we are neglected.
I have interviewed makeup artists, photographers, journalists, hairdressers, and nail technicians.
By creating this beauty magazine, I hope everyone reads and supports these stories of the beautiful black women I have interviewed.
All social media of the participants are tagged in the magazine.
