- What's up everyone?
My name is Freddie,
and I'm going to be answering assumptions
that you guys said that you had about me on Instagram.
And I'm gonna let you know whether it's true,
false, or both, all while I get ready.
My getting ready routine today for you guys
is gonna be just like throwing on some makeup,
just with my general, every day,
really quick routine that I do.
And then figuring out what I'm gonna wear for the day,
and hair, I guess, which I'm not gonna be doing much,
but I'll let you know sort of what I do
when I have braids in.
This is the primer that I like to use,
the Hourglass Primer Serum.
And I'm just gonna put this primer
on just to act as a barrier between my pores and the makeup.
So first question is you are really good
at managing your money.
(Freddie laughing)
The answer is yes, very true.
I feel like being good at managing money is like,
investing into stocks, and making sure your money
just isn't sitting in a bank account.
I don't really do all of that,
I really just hoard all of my money in my savings account,
so I do think that I am good at managing my money.
You give very good style and fashion advice.
Eeee.
I definitely am happy to give advice,
but I don't know if I'm necessarily great at it.
I don't think I'd be able to be a stylist for living, no.
A lot of the suggestions I give other people,
I feel like it's what I would do
and not necessarily what works best for them
and what they actually like or their vibe.
My vibe is very specific to me.
I do wanna let you guys know that this morning
I used these Flamingo face strips to wax my mustache off.
It really got most of the hair off just
in a couple foul swoops, so highly recommend.
Next question, queen, you like spicy food for sure.
Hot sauce addict.
Mm, the thing is I do, I do like a nice kick.
A lot of times I'm overzealous
about the amount of spice that I can actually handle.
And then my boyfriend makes fun
of me when I'm freaking out after I've eaten it.
I like a nice medium spice for sure.
Okay, so this is Hourglass,
the stick foundation, in the color almond.
So I really just kinda put it all over.
I definitely put it here,
but especially when I haven't waxed my stash,
'cause I'm like, oh my gosh, it's so dark,
it looks so hairy,
and I just use this Hourglass Foundation Brush
and just go in.
Definitely in quarantine
I haven't been wearing like any makeup at all.
So when I do the bare minimum,
which is what I'm doing today,
which is my general everyday makeup routine
that I was doing before we were on lockdown.
I'm like, wow, my face is so beat,
I have so much makeup on,
and y'all are gonna be like, did you even do anything?
The next one is,
there is no way you don't have it all together
and figured out.
Does it look like that?
Wow, I'm doing a really great job
of acting on social media, I guess.
Why haven't I booked any roles yet?
No, I definitely don't have it all figured out.
I turned 31 this year and I'm like, wow,
I still don't have it figured out, you know?
And I think about our parents growing up,
it's like, in my head they were adulting
and knew all the right steps.
No.
We're all just kind of fumbling through,
figuring it out as we go, and just trying to do our best.
You're a badass lady who likes clubbing,
but prefers staying home to binge TV.
Correct.
I don't know about clubbing,
but I do like a nice bar outing.
I definitely like to get cute and have a reason to,
but I do really love just binging TV at home
with my cat and my boyfriend.
I mean, if I'm getting really overzealous,
I'll do some concealer under my eyes.
I'm not wetting my Beautyblender
because I kind of stopped doing that.
I found out that it's not required.
And the concealer that I used is Urban Decay Naked
concealer, dark golden.
So next, this is my setting powder.
Ben Nye Chestnut setting powder that I use.
I'm just going to do some baking
so that hopefully I can have a bit of an airbrushed finish.
So the next assumption is you're always there
for your friends, no matter what or when.
I would say yes, I try my best to be there for everyone
in my life that I care about, who needs me.
With that being said, I actually have been discussing it
in therapy about just like boundaries and figuring out
when to say no and when to say yes,
because I am always saying yes,
because I just have this, crazy crippling anxiety
that everyone will hate me if I'm not there and available.
So I'm really right now focusing on managing those
relationships and those expectations,
but in a healthy, progressive way.
I'm going to use the Benefit Goof Proof brow pencil.
'Cause she's like a dark brown. I'll comb these up.
My eyebrows are actually micro bladed.
So I don't really do a bunch of filling in.
And then I've gotten a little touch ups.
The next assumption is you spend a lot on clothes.
(bell dings)
Yes.
Yes I do.
Next, hated college.
No, I did not hate college.
I loved college. I went to Howard University,
historically black college in Washington, DC.
You know, anytime I get a chance
to talk about Howard university, I snatch it right up,
because I had such a good time
and it was such a valuable experience.
College was a lot of fun, a lot of partying,
but also so much learning and such great lessons
that I've took from it.
It teaches you how to have grit.
This is my bronzer and highlighter kit.
So if you've ever watched the show, Dear White People,
the actress that plays Joelle Brooks,
her name is Ashley Blaine Featherson.
This is her collection with the Mented brand.
And also, she went to Howard University.
Tap into Mented, they have really great products.
Black women-owned, all the great things.
They have lips, they have bronzers, highlighters,
all kinds of things.
So this is the Season 2 deep shade. Get the bronzer out.
Perfect if you have darker skin, like it's great.
I know in the past I've actually had issues trying
to figure out what bronzer to get that's actually going
to pop on my skin 'cause I'm darker.
So that's why I just love the set.
And then I jump into the highlighters.
So on the other side.
You have high standards. Yes I do booboo.
In every facet of life,
I have high standards, especially of myself.
Anything that I produce, that I work on,
that I participate in has to be
to the absolute best of my ability.
And I want it to be beneficial for every party involved.
My standards are high. Correct.
So now I'm just going to go back in with the Ben Nye
and blend this out.
So the next one is you had a billion stuffed animals when
you were little. I don't think I had a billion.
I guess I treated my stuffed animals
like I treat my friends.
Like I don't have a ton,
but the ones I have are quality.
You are about to overpay for a house in this market.
Yes, whoever said this, you are correct.
Yes I will. I actually went to go see a house last night.
It's a thousand square feet and just a lot
of money for that.
You know, all over the country right now
the housing market is insane,
but LA a whole different ball game. This is Mac blush.
I always love Mac blushes because they're super pigmented
as well. It's called Fever.
So it has a little bit of a purple-y tint to it,
very into that.
You are decisive and confident in who you are.
So the decisive part, yes, but confident in who I am.
I struggle with that sometimes,
especially with social media,
as I'm filming a video for YouTube.
It makes me question every everything I'm doing every day.
Am I doing enough?
Am I good enough? I try to keep good people around me.
Good vibes around me. And I just try to keep working hard.
Hopefully I'll get to where I want to be.
Almost to the end of this little makeup routine.
This is Lash Freak by Urban Decay.
So, I actually have like a few scraggly lash extensions on,
so I'm not going to do too much.
We're just gonna do a light, a light brush.
I do love this mascara by the way.
Kind of blend out everything.
I'm just going to do a gloss with Fenty Beauty.
You are kind but fierce. Yes, that is correct.
You seem like a safe friend, nonjudgmental and open. Okay.
So yes, I think that's true.
I'm definitely the one that is super protective
and when one of my girls is dating someone,
it's very much like, oh no, what's Freddie going to say,
I just have again, very high standards.
Not only for myself, but also for the people I love.
I know what they deserve
and I know how they should be treated.
And it's like, if these people that they're dating come
into the fold and aren't doing enough
or aren't treating others as they should be treated,
I'm definitely gonna speak out about it.
And I don't care.
I don't care. So yeah, sometimes, fierce.
And this was the Fenty Beauty, Hot Chocolate gloss,
which I very much enjoy. It also smells so good.
So yeah, my makeup look.
I love having braids because it means that I don't have
to do too much and I can kind of get up and go.
But when I have braids,
this is like my everyday routine that I feel like I have
to do to feel presentable and cute.
I'm gonna use Pattern products.
Y'all know I love Tracee Ellis Ross. Okay.
So I'm going to her Edge Control. It smells so good.
You can see it's like kind of jelly.
And then this is her edge brush that I love.
I don't know something about this
and I love that it has the comb on the outside
so I can really sculpture the way my baby hairs look.
You are the life of the party.
It depends on how many drinks I've had to be honest.
I definitely would say I get more lively
as the night goes on and the more drinks I have.
So yes, I have it in me to be the life of the party.
You smell very nice and have warm energy. Yes.
I like to smell nice. I try to, you know,
sprit some of my favorite fragrances on before I go out.
And we'll say though,
I've been working on trying
to try the aluminum free deodorant situation.
Which makes the first half of that assumption untrue.
I don't really enjoy being around people who are cold.
I know how it feels. I know how it makes me feel.
So I'm pretty, self-aware when I'm around people,
especially new people.
I want them to feel welcomed and good.
As you can see, I'm trying to get these baby hairs sculpted.
I'm just gonna keep the braids out of my face,
by just using one of my little soft fabric hair ties.
And that's it.
I have figured out what I'm going to throw on.
I'm not really going anywhere.
So I'm gonna stay true and make sure that I'm being honest
with you guys and let you know what I would actually wear
around the house.
But I did add a little cute element.
Before we jump into that,
we're gonna start with some rapid-fire assumptions
that you guys sent me on Instagram.
The rapid-fire ones,
you're outgoing, extroverted, and have a lot of friends.
I would say I have a lot of acquaintances and associates
and I would say friendship wise,
I would say I have a good amount, like I definitely have
enough where I can feel overwhelmed at times.
Your favorite color is yellow.
No, my favorite color is green and you'll see that
in what I actually end up wearing.
You don't talk to the Ladylike girls anymore.
False, I talk to all of them, still love all of them.
You're a super cool and low key person. It's so funny.
People think that because I'm on the internet
and I'm technically talent,
that I'm really super out there,
but I would say I'm pretty low key,
but I do just like being on camera.
I'm gonna just go with this little green J-Lo, "I'm Real",
Terry Cloth chill at home situation.
I'm just going to throw on some Gucci socks just
to add some pizzazz.
This little situation is from Forever 21.
I love the fact that it's easy. It's breezy.
I don't really get pit stains in it
'cause it's not suffocating my pits.
And then I have the Gucci socks
and I also have it in yellow.
Next questions are, you're really quirky and silly.
That's so funny.
Like some people categorize me as quirky, others don't.
I guess I could fall into that category depending
on what your definition of quirky is.
I'd probably have a little bit of quirk
and I'm definitely very silly.
I love to laugh and I love to joke.
You're rich rich.
No, no.
You are a 4.0 smarty and a five star mommy.
I'd love to be considered a five star mommy, thank you.
A 4.0 smarty, I did graduate college summa cum laude,
which is 3.8 and above. So sure.
You're naturally positive. I really do try to be,
but man anxiety is a (beep).
Thank you guys so much for getting ready
with me and for submitting assumptions on Instagram.
You know, I wasn't able to get through all of them,
but I did what I could.
So thank you guys so much for submitting them.
I hope that this was fun for you guys.
I hope maybe you learn something new about me.
This was really fun. Let's do it again.
