Keep going Octavia and never stop. RU-vid, editing, sponsorships, taking the pics for content and everything else that goes into this is a lot of work. But you are doing better than you realize and its inspiring.
I’m 19 and still have a stutter. It’s inspiring to see a successful woman like you navigate through life and succeed (especially on such critical, demeaning platforms like RU-vid and social media). I love the transparency and authenticity. Watching you definitely gives me hope and courage! Love your videos sis😘🤎
So proud of you for leaving the stuttering bit in, you did excellent continuing on with your sentence. It will show others who may also stutter to some degree, that it is nothing to be ashamed of!!!
The clip when you were sitting on the bench. Gave me “who’s she, I’m her vibes”. So beautiful and loving. The outfit to the hair compliments you so well. Love it!
First, love your vlogs! Second, I know you said the short hair is too much maintenance.... but baaayybbeeeee that short hair looks amazing on youuuuu. It literally highlights you're beautiful facial features even more. 💕
I had to pause the vlog and just give you kudos on leaving your stuttering in there. I have an 8 year old who stutters at times and he sometimes get frustrated or upset because he tries so hard to hide it. So many other people stutter and it normal. So thank you for leaving it in here. No one should ever look down or have an issue with this. I feel like this makes me even love you more.
I always watch the ads - only for you. because you always delivering! Thank you! I've been so stressed from grad school and you are always a fresh breath of air ❤️
quality pieces you will really have forever.. I'm older and have purchased high end items in my youth and I still have them. Your aesthetic is so classy
The hat brought the hair even more life! 😍 a whole look! Also I brought the same earrings from Amazon some months ago, because of you! I love the earrings!
I remember watching you over the years and love to see the woman you so beautifully continue to evolve into. Keep going and being an example for many around the globe ❤️
The hair cut and style looks amazing! I'm obsessed with dior makeup. I purchased the contour kit. And lipstick. Your hair looked very sleek. Yes! I am currently looking for new scent. Nice vlog as usual beautiful 🍃🌹🍃
I like that you’re trying your best to leave some parts of you stuttering in the vlogs, I’m sure it’s taking a lot of self work for you to do that and I’m so proud of you! Loving the vlog so far and I’m ✍️ down these perfume recommendations. I’m on the hunt for my Momma
Loving your consistent posture, and how you are trying different things, in the midst of figuring it out. ✨ You are shining Queen.. the blazer gave me so much vibes...
I like the Libre too for layering. I got the 5oz which ended up being the same as a 3oz w/ the sale. I only wear it layered. I layered it with Armani Si going into fall but going to layer with some of my Tom Ford’s for winter💓💓
I really like the new haircut and i am considering cutting my own hair to that same lenght as well. Pikie cuts are cute but they are indeed serious maintenace! Loving the frequent uploads!
Am always looking forward to these weekly blogs even though I only get to watch on Monday during my lunch time because of time difference☺️you are a natural 😊
Hi Octavia , I missed on a few videos now that I went back to work after 8 months . I missed your videos I put them to watch on later since this week was the first week back and having a toddler at daycare . I had no time and I could not not watch and like and comment I had too . I love the hat on you it’s so classy and the music you chose on your videos is a vibe . 🤎
Why do people really go on someone RU-vid just to dislike and give a 👎🏽. Like you can skip it and find another channel to watch. Anyways I love this video, you always add great Content to each video. And your eyebrows is 💯😍
The hat looks cute Octavia. You should also get one with a more firm and structured brim to hold up against the winter elements. There’s a RU-vidr SimplyShannah, she has a short cut and rocks a lot of cool hats.
Dr. Gross is bomb, when you feel your face tightened stop for a few days ...moisturizer is key a ceramide-3 prebiotic..best after the peels. They are nice, great content as pre usual so Classic.
Love the hair cut, the hat and the HelloFresh!! You have the best attitude ever ("if at first you don't succeed"), measure next time! I was the worst at not measuring. I had to learn the hard way. I was tired of not being a good steward over my dollars!
I've been using the Dennis Gross Peel sheets for years. They're a holy grail product however you cannot use anything else while using that(like retinol and stuff like that). You honestly don't need anything while using those. Face will be smooth as a baby. I got the worse chemical burn years ago because I used that with another product that had an active ingredient. Took months to heal.
OCTAVIA! I was about to leave a comment and you noted it in the vlog during your fragrance review. You should totally do a video on how you control your speech. Most Videos we don't even notice that you stutter. You're doing AMAZING sweetie! On God, you're an inspiration to people who stutter... something like stuttering would keep the average person from speaking publicly or recording for fear of being ridiculed or out of insecurity. But, you control it and keep moving forward like a G! I'm honestly not sure why speech apps haven't reached out to you for sponsorship opportunities. I truly hope you understand that this message is coming from a good place. (Sometimes text can be misunderstood) Get it Girl!! XOXO Mani
whew chiiiillleee, idk if anyone said it yet, but WHATEVER makeup technique you used starting at the 26:55 mark onward *chef's kiss* you looked freakin stunning, and the colors were all so subtle glowy and pretty!! xoxo
I honestly love that you are getting these sponsorships!!! Regarding the sephora sale, thanks for being honest about the olaplex conditioner (that a little doesn't go a long way). The thing is so darn expensive and I hear so many people talk about kmt. I'll probably save my coins on that one. And omg, I got the Dr Dennis Gross chemical peel sheets as a sample from Sephora! Now, that, is worth some coins (it did high key tingle, low key burn when I applied to my face though, but my results were amazing). I will probably buy get the regular size after my samples are done. Let me know how you like it. ~~~
Hi Octavia, I too stutter in my speech and it's been something that has bothered me since I was in high school. I'm almost 29 and I'm barely getting comfortable with speaking in front of a camera or publicly to a group of people. I'm glad that you included your stutter in the video to say hey, this is me. Congrats on all of your new success and I'm looking forward to more of your content.
I just bought the Libre Intense on Friday, to me it’s a little warmer of a scent. Then again I don’t wear my perfumes by season, just whatever I am feeling that day lol.
Can you share your morning Spotify playlist? I remember you saying in the video about how you just have positive music on your playlist when you wake up.
