The one thing my mom taught me was to never go to bed without washing my face, and so I wash my face at least twice a day.

You can have your cake and eat it too and follow your passions, have a family, and be happy.

What I want to represent for my daughters is that you can always stay true to yourself and still be successful.

My parents found this paper from my high school theater class where you had to write down what you wanted in a significant other. At the bottom, it said, 'No athletes, because they're arrogant.'

Being able to sprawl out on the bed and wear my face mask and put my hair up in my bonnet, honestly, it's nice to have those moments sometimes.

In the CoverGirl Melting Pout Matte Lipstick ads, I am wearing this gorgeous purple color called Seismic. It's such a different shade, but it works well with my face. I've got hazel eyes, and so purple kind of compliments it. It's a nice shade to put on when I'm feeling a little sassy.

If I am in a certain mood, and I want to feel a certain way, I will pop on a certain color of lipstick, and it makes me feel entirely different.

Things happen when they're supposed to happen.

I prayed about it consistently - that God would direct me in the right path and that, when it would happen, I would know that I'm in the right place.

I feel like Christianity gets very misconstrued sometimes. People don't realize that every day is a normal day just like anybody else, but we're just trying to improve every day. It's not about putting anybody down or telling anybody they're wrong. It's more about trying to do what's right for your own self.

I do my own way of witnessing. Not by verbally intimidating people but just by my actions.

Glam, for me, is all about a good lip, lots of mascara, and contouring. Contouring is very important.

I wear a lot of hair extensions because I'm doing a lot of shoots and things like that. But for me, a good edge control is really important, and then a headscarf at night.

I wasn't allowed to date in high school.

If I'm just trying to play it cool, a nude lip always goes a long way.

I believe that in today's media landscape, we can create and distribute content on multiple platforms while remaining fresh and relevant.

From the very first meeting, I knew that Endemol Shine was a great fit for me.

One food I've tried and I haven't grown at all to like - foie gras, I don't like it. I just don't. I've tried it several different ways, and I think it's a texture thing for me.

My kids don't like chocolate. My husband doesn't like chocolate, so I get it all to myself.

I'm thankful for my family's health, that everybody's healthy. That's something that can be taken for granted, so I'm grateful for that.

I wanted to keep that message of food and family alive, and how it brings people together and builds relationships and communication.

At the end of the day, the Internet is full of mean people. Who are these people in their everyday life? I pray for them.

It's never okay to put other women down.

I'm a big fan of soups and stews because you can throw everything in a slow cooker and leave it there for hours. They taste great in containers, too, because they sit in the fridge, and the flavors meld overnight.

I started preparing meals for my family when I was 12 because both of my parents worked, but I didn't know that it was something I could make a career out of until I had my daughter and realized there were people out there who were interested in learning how to prepare a quick meal.

My grandmother had mango trees in her backyard when I was a child. So it's always been an ingredient that I'm familiar with. It can be used in so many ways. My kids absolutely love it for a snack or in a savory dish.

I can remember what I ate in the most important moments in my life.

I've tried my best to be transparent with everything I do. What you see is what you get.

People don't realize it hurts my feelings when someone looks at my hair or my eyes, and says, 'But you're not actually black. You're black, but you're not black black, because your eyes are green.' I'm like, 'What? No, no, I'm definitely black.' Even some of my closest friends have said that. It's been a bit touchy for me.

Throughout high school, I was made fun of a lot. I was a lot smaller than the other kids, and I have a big gap in my teeth. I had pretty bad acne. So I struggled with that.

There were moments growing up where I felt beautiful, but I truly didn't feel beautiful all of the time until I became a mom. It really allowed me to realize no one is perfect.

I remember my mom wearing CoverGirl. And, no joke, the first lipstick I got was CoverGirl. It was this pearly pink shimmer that was not the color for me, but it sticks in your mind.

It's hard to portray your personality in 140 characters. And so, at times, I tend to be very cynical. And I don't think that comes across very well on social media.

There's going to be a million people that tell you 'No' when you're starting out to do something. But, all you need is that one person to tell you 'Yes,' who's going to believe in you. But first, you need to believe in yourself.

I think it's important to be that strong woman and to follow your passions regardless of what your situation is.

Shrimp and grits is a dish that I enjoy from North Carolina. It's one of those dishes that is so rich in flavor and texture.

I think it's important for children to know where their food comes from and how much work it takes to produce the items we eat in our home.

A good cut of steak is always a go-to splurge.

My mom is Jamaican and Chinese, and my dad is Polish and African-American, so I had a pretty diverse culinary background to work with.

I don't want to be just a lifestyle guru for the millennials.

Putting good foods into kids' bodies puts me at peace and makes me really happy.

If we have love, we have family, we have everything we need.

'Having it all,' to me, means having my family, having health, my kids' health, a roof over our heads, everybody fed.

My mom has passed down that you can be chic and look beautiful, and you don't have to break the bank. I grew up like that. She also taught me I don't have to stress all the time. She's always been a go-with-the-flow type of woman; that's how she raised us, and I find that's how I'm raising my little girls now.

It's cool to see all your dreams come to fruition.

I've made it a point to be transparent on my social media and in everything that I present. I never want anyone to think that I'm too fluffy or too perfect.

For me, I just do what is true to myself and my brand.

Instead of cartoons, I was the kid who was watching Food Network, falling asleep to Emeril and Rachael Ray.

Both of my parents worked, so it was my way of helping around the house by making dinner for my family. I fell in love with it.

The kitchen was the center of our household. I spent all of my time there growing up.
