Complection


My melanin complection is my inspiration. Being able to show off my coco butter skin while walking down the path my ancestors paved for me is an attribute to my inspiration. My inspiration is not just one sole thing but multiple things that inspire me. My people are my inspiration, my culture is my inspration, and becoming an educated black woman for someone else to look up to is my main insparation.
