Hello! Welcome to The Princientist.
About the blog
This blog combines my two passions of fashion and science to give you practical tools to help you create a better version of yourself.
The name The Princientist stands for The Princess Scientist and represents how I see myself in a world where my occupation is seen as the opposite of beauty, style and creativity.
I am a scientist.
I love fashion, and I want to share my knowledge in both areas with you.
The Princientist was created to help black women looking for a change in style but don’t know where to begin.
But anyone is welcome to read.
All the information online can be overwhelming.
The goal is to have everything you need in one place to begin your level-up journey.
This information is paired with self-improvement strategies and advice through an adaptation of science to real life.
We will discuss external appearance a lot.
To clarify, appearance in this context does not refer to beauty/facial beauty.
It is about how you choose to present yourself to the world, regardless of the beautiful/ugly systems society has forced upon you.
This blog is a safe space to share opinions, tips and advice.

About ME – Owner & Creator
My name is Amila.
I am a scientist with a passion for fashion.
I have been cultivating my knowledge and bettering my style using a logical and methodical approach.
The methods I used proved to be very effective in helping me increase my confidence and improve my style in a visible way to myself and my peers.
With all this information at my disposal, I created a fashion blog to share the same methods with you.
A few curiosities:
– My favourite colour is pink.
– I like Paris, selfies and sciences, and I can’t pass by a sunset without admiring it.
– I have recently made a dream come true and visited Paris. But I also failed to enter the school I wanted, so I’ll try again later.
– From time to time, I choose something I’m afraid of and do it.
– I live by the belief that it takes the same amount of energy to plan big as it does to plan small.
Dreaming is free.
So I plan as much as I can for the good things and do what is available to me.
Think about it, if you are not even planning big, how will big opportunities find you?
How will you know that they exist?
You are not looking for them.
Actively, intentionally and vehemently go in search of good, big things for yourself.
Run towards that dream.
Main Goals
First, you will learn about makeup, skincare, personal hygiene and hair care.
Second, having visual proof that you look good increases confidence.
For this reason, you can find the best self-photography tips here.
And finally, in self-improvement, you can find effective strategies and tools to save money, become more confident and love yourself.
The idea is that you combine all the knowledge here to become the image of your imagination.
To bring out the woman you imagine yourself to be – positive, calm, and confident.
