A couple of weeks ago, Beyoncé and Wizkid wowed us with ‘Brown Skin Girl’ —the beautiful song they created to eulogize every African woman out there. As we would have it, the song’s title became a regular caption for almost every African girl’s photo and since we have brown skin girls all about us, wouldn’t it be nice to know how to glow like a brown skin girl?
Glowing should not be limited to the skin alone, you know. If your skin is just like pearls, then every other thing about you should glow too, including your attitude and charisma. Your face should glow, your clothes should too, your makeup should be lit and even the way you smell should glow. Whether you are a brown skin girl, a black skin girl or a yellow skin girl, there’s one thing in common and that is the beauty inherent in our African heritage. You should embrace and enhance it always. You definitely can with these few things you need to glow like a brown skin girl.
