Light Beat, Light Wybe

Sis, full glam in 90° heat? That’s a meltdown waiting to happen. Let’s keep it cute and cool.

Skip the heavy foundation- Try a light layer or spot concealing.

Cream products are the vibe- Cream blush + bronzer = effortless glow.

Brows, mascara, gloss- Three steps, and you’re out the door.

Bottom line: Summer makeup should feel good and look fresh. Don’t let your beat slide off before lunch.

Wybe Sign-Off: Stay cool, stay cute, and don’t get caught in makeup melting type Wybe.

What They Should've Taught Us About Money in School

Let’s be honest, school taught us about algebra and History, but not how to handle our money. Most Bahamians graduate knowing little about budgeting, credit, loans, or saving, all things we need right away in real life. We should’ve learned how to manage a paycheck, avoid debt traps, and set financial goals. Instead, many of us are figuring it out the hard (and expensive) way.

So, here’s a quick finance tip: start tracking your spending. Even if you make $250 a week, knowing where every dollar goes can help you cut back and save smarter. Build a simple budget, and don’t sleep on credit unions, they often have better rates than banks.

It’s never too late to learn. Whether you're 18 or 38, improving your money mindset now can change your future. Let’s make money make sense for us, by us.

You Good?

In The Bahamas, we love to say, “You good?” — but when was the last time you asked yourself that question and really meant it? Life can feel heavy sometimes, even in paradise. Between bills, work stress, family drama, and trying to keep up appearances, it’s easy to get overwhelmed without even realizing it.

Checking in with yourself doesn’t have to be deep or complicated. Start simple: How’s your mood been? Are you sleeping okay? Eating properly? Have you laughed lately? If your answers are mostly “no” or “I don’t know,” that’s your cue to slow down and make time for you.

Take 10 minutes alone. Breathe. Journal. Go for a walk. Talk to someone you trust. Don’t wait for a breakdown to realize you’ve been carrying too much.

Mental health isn’t a luxury, it’s maintenance. So today, seriously ask yourself: You good? And if not, that’s okay. Just don’t stay silent about it.
