When Shen met motherhood, her life changed. While she still loves all things beauty, she found her true passion in her children. With her husband and two kids in her life, she has transformed her blog into beauty, lifestyle, and baby bliss.
“That’s the beauty of blogging. There are really no rules. So whichever part of your life you’re in, you can write it down, and there will always be people you can connect with through that,” Shen shares.
Being a mom has changed Shen for the better. As she shared stories about her family life, parenting, and real-mom experiences, she found herself connecting to her readers in a special way. There are special moments that fill her with mompowerment euphoria.
She says, “Aside from being a beauty blogger, I know I am empowering women to love themselves by using make-up as a tool for empowerment. But I think the most powerful I felt was when I started breastfeeding. I met a lot of people who were able to help me understand my body. Breastfeeding allowed me to see my body in a different perspective, understanding how we were wonderfully made by God.”
