Summary

We’ve all been there - we’ve all experienced doubt, uncertainty, not knowing when to tune out the outside opinions. But! This week’s guest, Darcei Giles (one of the original YouTube beauty queens), learned how to bet on herself and built an online beauty empire all her own. Lucky for us, she’s here to inspire us all to do the same! Whether you’re a young entrepreneur, a blossoming beauty influencer, or on the cusp of the next chapter in the adventure of your life, Darcei and JVN suss out how we can all put utmost faith in ourselves and stay (and slay) the course. Darcei Giles, known as MissDarcei, captivates viewers with her vibrant personality and unique perspective on everything from trending makeup looks to discussions on cultural appropriation. With a deep interest in Korean culture, Darcei brings her audience a blend of K-beauty, K-fashion, and K-pop insights, making her a go-to for fans of the genre. Her popular series “Black Girl Tries” has played a key role in her rise, showcasing her fresh and often humorous takes on diverse beauty trends, and establishing her as a one-of-a-kind voice in beauty content. In 2022, Darcei became the first Black creator to win the Streamy Award for Beauty, an achievement that underscores her influence and dedication to inclusivity in the digital space. This recognition solidified her position as a trailblazer for underrepresented voices in beauty, empowering her to continue inspiring and entertaining a broad, engaged audience. With her infectious energy and thoughtful approach, Darcei’s channel is set to remain a powerful presence, bridging cultural gaps and bringing inclusivity to the forefront of the beauty and lifestyle industry.
