In case no has told you today... Black Girl, you are beautiful. Sending you a sweet little affirmation with many more to come. We deserve love too. That's why I created a beauty and shopping event just for us. Tickets for @blackgirlbeautifuldotcom going on sale soon. #blackgirlbeautiful
Can we talk about ghosting? Y'all know I say this out of love, so let's talk. How many times has someone ghosted on you instead of owning up to the challenge, the obstacle, or just honesty? If you can't handle the heat... Ahem. #ManUp #realtalk
This dream is coming to life. I'd like to introduce you to my baby #BlackGirlBeautiful, a beauty and shopping event for women of color. We know how hard it is to find makeup for our melanin and the right products for our kinky hair. Our beauty deserves to be celebrated. Follow @blackbeautifuldotcom for updates on the event coming soon. Because Black girls need beauty love too...
The weekend is on view, and damn it's beautiful. #beachvibes
You. Soft. Gentle. Vulnerable. Sweet. Resilient. Intoxicating. Sensuous. I find my peace when I look inside of You. Everyday write yourself a love poem. You are worthy of beautiful words. #lovenikia
I've made mistakes. I haven't always made the best decisions. But in those defeats, I've found my strength. Allow yourself to grow into the person you're meant to be. "There's no room for improvement in perfect." -@rondarousey. #perfectnever #inspiration #reebokwomen
One of the coolest MCs to ever get on the mic. Always on point. Witnessing your artistry is one of the biggest moments of my life. The influence you've had over an entire generation... Wow, son! We'll miss you, Phife. #ripphifedawg #atcq
Learn to love yourself and every inch of your skin. You are a goddess. Talking self acceptance and sexual liberation with @xonecole. Check out the interview and get to know the real me. 📷 by @kraftedbyalexia and words by @indiebyline. #xonecole #NikiaPhoenix #freckles
European beauty standards have and never will apply to me. Being black with kinky hair and freckles, I'm not considered a classic beauty. But I still know I'm so damn beautiful. Embrace who you are regardless of what society tells you. Classic Beauty tote coming soon. #BeAuthenticBeYou #blackgirlmagic #classicbeauty #NikiaPhoenix

Part 1 of my manifesto: There's nothing wrong with working for other people, but what are you doing to uplift you? Think about it. A little peek of what's coming next week. #NikiaPhoenix #inspiration #beauthenticbeyou #womensempowerment
Morning inspiration: Madame CJ Walker. Before all my favorite hair companies like @carolsdaughter, @mydevacurl, @sheamoisture4u, @freeyourmane there was Madame CJ Walker. She created a beauty brand that rocked the industry and tapped into a previously unexplored market of black women's hair care. Her tenacity, innovation, and self promotion made her the first SELF-MADE female millionaire in America. Boom! #blackhistory #madamecjwalker #womensempowerment #inspiration
Be authentic! Be you! Ladies, this is for us. Join me and friends as we celebrate the launch of a new beginning and a fresh start for the dreamers and the doers. I believe in empowering people especially women and if I'm going to talk about, I'd better be about it. I want us all to rise. Come out to @mydevacurl's #devachansalon on 2/20 for this special event. Cocktails, giveaways, and words of love from yours truly. RSVP@revelwith.com. XOXO, N. #beauthenticbeyou #NikiaPhoenix #womensempowerment
Keep it simple. Don't front. XOXO, N. #inspiration #love
