#fbf: The Twinship Beauty Files!

Okay, you know when you’re going through your iPhone and come across random memories, well this is one of them! Something that we do everyday is go on a walk– we call it our “Steve Jobs walk.” It helps us decompress, but more importantly reflect, think and feel. So earlier this week, on our walk, we were talking about our strengths and weaknesses and amazingly, we both said the same thing we wrote in our beauty confessions in October 2013. Not sure if that’s a good thing, but at least we’re honest.

#tbt: The Twinship Mama Makeover!

Posted on February 4, 2016

Our mother is our everything. She is our rock, our saving grace, our protector, and our hero. She is our greatest example of what a woman, wife, and mother should be. And although she stands all of 5-feet-tall, she undoubtably stands taller than any person in the room — opinionated, smart, and a wonderful listener too.

Like most immigrants who come to America, displaced from their motherland, forced and fortunate to live in a new country, there is an innate self-determination instilled within their hearts and minds. A desire to give, to be more, and do more. Our mother works tireless hours as a nurse and wears a uniform everyday. Sometimes she is just too tired to make that extra effort of putting on eyeliner and lipstick…because quite honestly…she’s too busy working overtime to send money to our family back home in Eritrea. So during Thanksgiving break, we decided to pamper her and to give her a ‘mama makeover’ — twinship edition!

Using most of the Twinship Top Ten Beauty Products, here are some photos of what we like to call… “the transformation of mama chief to twinship bombshell.”

And again, thank you so much for visiting us — you all are our “third twin!” All aboard the twin—SHIP!

Before our fave beauty products are applied remember to always clean your face, moisturize your skin, and apply a little lip moisturizer!

We keep hearing Stevie Wonder singing “isn’t she lovely…isn’t she wonderful…”

And here we all are! All made up the twinship way!

P.S. This really deserves more than a ‘P.S.’ but our father is equally incredible!!!

3 Things We’re Currently Obsessed With!

Posted on November 17, 2015

Bravo TV is a way of life

Full disclosure, we love, love, love BRAVO TV especially The Real Housewives of whatever city is on. Atlanta and Beverly Hills is our personal fave, but there is something to be said about Bethenny Frankel of Real Housewives of NYC. Watching her go from a tiny one bedroom apartment she shared with her number one companion, Cookie (that’s her dog), trying to find her place in the world while juggling vacant relationships with wealthy housewives, as she tries to juggle her own very limited bank account was something that viewers like us empathized with. She was the underdog, she was the one with no money, no clear direction, but she had that fire, that eternal flame that she could do it, that she could build an empire on her own. So now to watch her be the queen of her own kingdom, otherwise known as SkinnyGirl, is a journey that we argue is perhaps the best part about The Real Housewives franchise. And for that, we are forever grateful to Andy Cohen for bringing these Housewives into our lives and inviting them into our homes. They make us want to get our nails done, laugh, drink wine but most importantly encourage us women to be business owners.

With that said, in honor of Andy Cohen’s show Watch What Happens Live, here are 3 things we are currently obsessed with:

We had the hardest time finding a hair clip to pull our mother’s hair back — so Feven was using her hands to push away our mothers bangs. Lesson — always pull your hair back before applying makeup and eyeliner. We know it’s basic info but…

Can you see Helena is in the background snapping pictures? Smile for the camera, mom.

We found a head band — thank goodness! We did a light ‘smokey eye’ on our mother using mac gel liner and lots of blending.

Of course! Right before we were about to apply the lipstick our younger brother walks in the door! Nate now lives in D.C. and he is officially a lawyer! These two haven’t seen each other since he recently passed the NY BAR, so naturally our mother couldn’t wait to give him a hug!

Now you know our mother had to turn it UP Eritrean style wearing her traditional Zuria and jewelry.
