WEDNESDAY WISDOM
AUTHENTICITY OVER IMITATION: The Confidence Factor
• When you embrace what makes you you, confidence naturally follows.
• Authentic makeup makes you feel good rather than self-conscious.
• Trends fade, but a signature, personalized makeup style never goes out of fashion.
• Makeup is an evolving journey; as you refine your personal style, it becomes a true reflection of who you are.
Finding Balance Between Trend & Authenticity
• You don’t have to ignore trends completely—pick elements that fit you AND MAKE YOURS OUT OF IT.
For Example:
Instead of extreme contouring, use soft sculpting to enhance your bone structure.

Contour and blush placement are all about enhancing your face’s natural structure. Keep your contour aligned with your brow arch to deepen natural shadows and create a sculpted effect.
For blush, placement is key higher on the cheeks for a lifted look, or closer to the apples for a youthful, soft flush.
The right balance of both brings dimension and harmony to your makeup.

PRIMER 101
Choosing the right primer for your skin type is essential for a flawless, long-lasting makeup application. Using the wrong primer can cause foundation to separate, fade, or enhance unwanted texture.
The right primer preps your skin, balances oil or hydration levels, and ensures your makeup looks smooth and stays put throughout the day.
Water-Based Primers → Best for dry, Normal and sensitive skin.
🔹 Texture: Lightweight, hydrating, absorbs quickly.
🔹 Preventing foundation from clinging to dry patches.
🔹 Works Best With: Water-Based Foundations (Check for “Aqua” or “Glycerin” as primary ingredients)
(e.g., Milk Hydro Grip, ELF Power Grip, Maybelline Fit Me Dewy + Smooth)
Silicone-Based Primers → Ideal for oily and combination skin.
🔹 Texture: Smoothing, pore-filling, helps control oil and keeps makeup from breaking down too quickly.
🔹 Works Best With: Silicone-Based Foundations (Check for “Dimethicone” or “Cyclopentasiloxane” in the top ingredients)
(e.g., Smashbox Photo Finish, Maybelline Baby Skin, Benefit Porefessional)
Oil-Based Primers → Great for dry, Normal and mature skin.
🔹 Texture: Nourishing, radiant, helps prevent foundation from clinging to dry patches.
🔹 Adds a luminous, dewy finish, keeping skin from looking dull or dry.
🔹 Works Best With: Oil-Based Foundations (Check for “Squalane” or “Jojoba Oil” in the ingredients) Nourishes and prevents foundation from settling into fine lines.
(e.g., Bobbi Brown Face Base, NYX Honey Dew Me Up, Guerlain L’Or)

So many people end up with shades that look too ashy, too orange, or just… off.
The secret? Knowing your undertone!
🔹 Warm undertones: Golden, peachy, or yellow hues—look for foundations labeled ‘warm’ or ‘golden.’
🔹 Cool undertones: Pink, red, green or blue hues—opt for shades labeled ‘cool’ or ‘rosy.’
🔹 Neutral undertones: A mix of both—neutral shades work best!
Without this knowledge, picking the right shade can feel like a never-ending struggle. But once you know what to look for, you’ll never waste money on the wrong shade again!

Sharing my story was never the hard part. Rather it was, holding tears back as I watched and replayed “younger Tania’s" story.
Coming from a place of having to battle with an orphan mindset which found expression in this way amongst a few others. I had to ensure that I was tackling matters from the root, which was my mind.
This part of my story is not merely a motivation to do or undo . But I pray that revelations in the knowledge of God can be seen from this.
- You are better than what you think you are.
- You are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.
- The blood that was slain for you, IS NOT second hand (okrika)
- You are a big deal in ABBA’s eyes.
- YOU ARE THE ELECT OF THE LORD.
Today I challenge you to identify those things that cause you not to see yourself and love yourself how HE sees you and loves you.
And get to work ACTIVELY DESTROYING, REPAIRING etc - PRACTICALLY ‼️
Expensive makeup won’t guarantee a flawless look—it’s all about skill.
Just like buying an outfit won’t give you the model’s body, the product alone won’t create the look you want. With the right technique, even affordable products can deliver stunning results.
