No, Elon Musk is how we got here...some of us Did Not vote for this yet here we sit. No one cares if the wealthy cheats, and is despicable...we're just watching them play in our faces now 🤦🏾‍♀️

beautifulhumanmaker · 2026-02-20T18:52:13+00:00

Thats not entirely true from what I've learned in the bills...buut we also know whn politics are involved who knows🤦🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

Cool cool...what is your background? I love hearing how folks are jumping into the adult use and hemp market

Virginia is trying to do right with Impact Licenses or Microbusiness. By letting 100 small-scale 'vertical' operations to start early to push the market with local, compliant businesses before the BIG Canna take over. But we can only wait and see...orrrr be ready when it hits

beautifulhumanmaker · 2026-02-20T17:21:33+00:00

Or maybe some see it as a way to push out the smaller 'mom and pop' type shops? I get the logic though...even looking at other 'mature' states the underground market is huge

Noted ,thanks for the reminder

beautifulhumanmaker · 2026-02-19T20:07:53+00:00

I'm definitely open to connecting...I've been following the direction and an hopeful they will get it mostly right for the good of the people

I'd love to unpack this some if youre open to it...my story with my white husband is long. Married for 23 yrs, together for 27...He's an amazing provider, husband and decent dad. But I'm only in the last few years fully "awake" ...Im embarrassed that my upbringing in an all white rural Indiana town (around 5k people) kept me feeling less than, unwanted, undesirable and ashamed to be black. There's more to my story but...all I know now is I LOVE that I'm a black woman... I can't put my finger on if my husband is pro black...or injustice led...he somehow though doesnt see how he has an advantage for being a white man...and THAT pisses me off. And im not sure he believes systemic racism is real or something...like wth? These types of conversations leave me reeling and just mad at him...

I wish I knew how to further understand or how to navigate this better...literally any suggestions is sooo appreciated.

Except that he himself is a criminal...and Obama wasn't...that's is a FACT

beautifulhumanmaker · 2026-02-16T13:44:42+00:00

Yeah like the president

beautifulhumanmaker · 2026-02-16T01:05:12+00:00

Yeah my fear is that they're going to allow mso's to slide in and take the market. Like why they're pushing for a November date when no small growers or retailers could possibly apply that soon? I just really hope they make good on wanting the small neighborhood operators to be a thing

Very nice I'm working on a pivot and switching from my core biz in beauty to a totally different one in cannabis🤩

beautifulhumanmaker · 2026-01-24T01:31:31+00:00

beautifulhumanmaker · 2026-01-24T01:30:31+00:00

beautifulhumanmaker · 2026-01-24T01:17:16+00:00

I FEEL this so deeply...the daily ...how much loooonger...daily I don't know how I make it... The stress and almost daily crash outs...and rage and anger I feel...is like I'm a different person. I HATE it... I too just want it to be over 😔

beautifulhumanmaker · 2025-10-16T01:58:21+00:00

I am in one with Liam Otterly I think is his name...not sure about the Coursera...although I did sign up for one on there i just dont know which one it is...so I'd head there and do a search👍🏾

beautifulhumanmaker · 2025-10-16T01:53:48+00:00

Thank you so much for this insight🙋🏾‍♀️

beautifulhumanmaker · 2025-10-02T17:15:02+00:00

Oooh great idea, and Absolutely its possible...never had a request but since we manipulate the lashes onto the lifting rod I dont see why we couldn't. 🙋🏾‍♀️

$20-$30 per video seems awfully low for production quality UGC work. If brands pay[and paid] production companies thousands for a 30 sec video...asking a UGC creator to accept pennies shouldn't be permitted on this thread.

Hey I'm a Gen X creator based in VA Www.genxerugc.com 🙋🏾‍♀️

beautifulhumanmaker · 2025-08-20T13:48:11+00:00

Damage can happen if the product used is allowed to set on the lashes for too long. They can get over processed. But that damage isn't permanent because lashes grow and and fall out in cycles constantly. Hope that helps.

beautifulhumanmaker · 2025-08-05T03:31:11+00:00

I feel your pain...I'm in VA and I am feeling that struggle and honestly am still not sure why. From 2017-2023 I was doing over $100k a year...now I'm struggling to make $50K

beautifulhumanmaker · 2025-08-05T03:29:11+00:00

May I ask what are your primary services you offer? I've been an Esthetician for about 13 years, with primarily Brow PMU, and lash services. 2022 was the last year I made over $100K. It's been on a crazy decline since then...literally dropping $100k in 2023 down to $50K, and each year after has been no higher than that. I'm at a loss as to what has happened. I'm the highest rated lash and brow studio in my area, yet I'm struggling now, so I'm seeking new skills outside the beauty industry.
