About The Blog
Hello! Welcome to The Princientist.
This blog combines my two passions of fashion and science to provide you with practical tools that will aid in the creation of a better version of yourself.
The name The Princientist stands for The Princess Scientist and it 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 those who are looking for a change in style but don’t know where to begin.
All the information online can be overwhelming. The goal is to have everything you need in one place to begin the level up journey of your style.
This information is paired with self-improvement strategies and personal development 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 us.
This blog is a safe space to share opinions, tips and advice. Join our community and Subscribe to our newsletter so you can stay up to date with the best fashion tips and strategies for personal growth.
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.
My goal is to help black women feel beautiful and empowered in their skin colour and body through fashion tips and scientific theories.
A few curiosities: My favourite colour is pink. I like beer, selfies and sciences and I can’t pass by a sunset without admiring it. My short-term dream is to spend my next birthday in Dubai.
The Mission
I’m here to help you achieve the entire potential of your physical appearance. All the things you want from the way you look to personal achievements are possible. You just need the right strategy.
I struggled very hard with my self-image growing up because I couldn’t see myself anywhere. Not in makeup, not in the fashion world. Not in the movies I adored.
No one told me my black traits were part of my beauty. Essential to it. So I’m here to tell you, black girl. You are BEAUTIFUL and WORTHY. You are not invisible.
The curly hair, the wide nose, the big lips are all part of what makes you beautiful. And if you can’t see it by yourself it’s okay because I’m here to bring you the right information so you can find your beauty and own it on your terms.
Main Goals
Fashion isn’t just about luxury brands and it is not exclusive to models. You can be fashionable every day with your current budget and without a special occasion.
With a series of fashion tips explaining in great detail all information about fashion, we will cover topics to help you improve your style.
We will begin by talking about the fashion and beauty basics, teaching you how to achieve the best look for you and move to different styling tips in fashion, hair, nails and makeup.
But beauty is nothing without personal development. Using a logical approach to subjects we will use scientific theories and self-improvement strategies to help you change your negative perceptions about yourself and life.
You will be more positive and approach situations in a better, calmer, and confident manner.
Don’t forget to join our community and stay tuned for all the content that is coming. It will be worth it.
The Main Topics
Although knowing how to dress is important I consider that only covering style is incomplete. To become truly stylish, one must pay attention and care to all parts of their body.
First, we will discuss makeup, skincare, nail care and hair care from a perspective directed at black women like me.
The idea is that you combine all the knowledge to become the image of your imagination. To bring out the women you imagine yourself to be.
Second, having visual proof that you look your best is a big boost to feel confident. For this reason, you can find the best self-photography tips here.
And finally, in science applied to life, we will make use of Scientific theories to bring a new approach to your daily problems. In self-improvement you can expect problem-solving theories, advice and much more.
