“My parents are from Surinam, a South American country that used to be a Dutch colony, but I was born and grew up in Amsterdam. I studied the performing arts and danced professionally, and then they attracted me to the world of modeling. It is almost a laar almost for almost Laar.
It was very exciting to work with such big brands, but all my jobs came with great hair damage. From the beginning, Dr. Miracle has relaxed my hair and cut it very short. Or of course, when growing, it was very normal to relax the hair because it was “easier” and more “management.” I only started to hug my natural hair in my veins, when OG influencers on YouTube began talking about it and introduced brand products like Shea Moisture to me. Like me, to incorporate their recs in my routine, people told me how they loved my big and curly hair. That was surprising because I knew I would get more work with relaxed hair. I mean, every time I reserved a job, the stylist remained in my hair.
When Covid hit, Jobs began to decrease speed. I imagine that I would try to bring my hair to a healthier state because I had all the time in the world to try different products and techniques. I get to all kinds of beauty stores to discover what was best for me, but the space was, and it is, it is wintering. And I also felt like the beautiful aesthetically pleasant brands with those I resonated not as textured hair. There are inherited marks that I grew up using and love, but they felt outdated in many ways. That is why I decided to launch mine, Lobie, which means ‘love’ in Surinamese. It is really focused on raising the textured hair market.

When I try too many products, my skin becomes really crazy, so I keep my skin care routine. Dr. Barbara Sturm’s enzymatic cleaner is great. I love to exfoliate my face, but gently. And then Clinical Hydra-Cool serum is the chef’s kiss. It is so moisturizing. The darkest face cream of Dr. Barbara Sturm’s skin tones is the only one that keeps me hydrated. And, of course, always sunscreen. The last Shiseido sunscreen is so soft and silky. Protects your skin, but it also gives your skin an additional brightness. In addition, any other sunscreen that I have tried has activated white heads.
If I have to wear a heavy makeup for a job, I take it with the Balm Cleaner of Eve Lom. I love to come with a muslin cloth. And every two weeks, I use Biologique Recherche’s Masque Vivant. I tend to have a skin full of potholes depending on the season, and this mask softens my skin almost immediately. It smells horrible, like Rancio chocolate, but it is one of the few products that gives me instant results.
I am not very good to make my own makeup, and because I would do it a lot for my work, I want to have a bare face when I am not on the clock. But if I want something, I keep it very natural. I use Saie’s bright gel in Solar turn Instead of the foundation. Brush The Anastasia eyebrow Beverly Hills frozen through my eyebrows, and then I put my eyelashes with my Shiseido curd. Then I will enter with my lancôme lipstick in Love to shine. I will use it as a blush if I don’t have my ilea Bird Blush.
As for my hair, I have a five monh baby, which Meeans has changed a lot during my pregnancy and after giving birth. My curls are smaller at the top of my head and more comfortable below. I would say that I have 4a, maybe 4b, curls. And I have tons of baby hair after dealing with postpartum hair loss. But I still try to keep my hair routine very, very simple. Even before having a baby, she was a lazy girl. [Laughs] Lavo and condition my hair once a week: I have developed the legs for almost two and a half years. Then I use my lobie peptide license in the mask. I like to use it for an elegant and elegant look. Ah, and my favorite hair brush is s-heart-s. It is the best in the unbalanced.
If I want braids, I’m going to Jolie Beauty Bar in Los Angeles, but I’m not very often. I think the last time I did my braids was for my birthday last October. If I want to straighten my hair, use the Dyson Airwrap. I always sprinkle it with the love of in order first. I also review it with the heat protection spray of Golden Lust of Oribe.
Since I had my baby, I have become very sensitive to what I carry or dew, since it is always in my skin, but years ago, I was so obsessed with the fragrances that my perfume brand wanted to start. I will also admit that I have begun to control some of my fragrances because people will buy them and it is confusing when they smell like me. [Laughs] That said, my favorite of all time is Battito d’Ali de Profumum Roma. It is sweet but masculine, soft and strong at the same time. He is also sexy and makes me feel safe. Mark my words: just like everyone suddenly began using Baccarat Rouge 540 by Maison Francis Kurkdjian, Battito is the next great aroma. “
