To fill her spare time, Aina turned to YouTube.
Aina went on to say that the army taught her a lot.
“I just learned that there’s always a bigger picture,” she said.
Aina then shared that in the army “you just kind of learn to stick with it.”
These are definitely skills that Aina has used to create her online beauty empire!
She then married her boyfriend and moved to Hawaii because he was stationed there.
What a massive life change!
In one of herYouTubevideos, Aina explained why she chose to get married at the young age of 21.
That’s definitely a message we can get behind!
She added, “YouTube was … one of the only things that kept me going.”
Sounds like Aina was in a really rough place!
In anotherYouTubevideo, Aina shed some light on why her marriage wasn’t working.
Because her husband was the main provider, Aina felt that she couldn’t explore her own interests.
Well, that certainly doesn’t sound fun!
Sheexplainedthat she first experienced it at 9 years old.
For Aina, her condition is apparently limited to the underarms.
She added, “I literally never sweat on my face.”
Aina spoke toEssencein more detail about how she deals with the condition.
We love that Aina is so honest!
This influencer uses her massive platform to advocate for diversity and inclusivity in the beauty industry.
In 2018, the star spoke toYahoo!

It turns out Aina originally intended to become a doctor!
I was just burnt out and I couldn’t do the really big classroom sizes."
We are so glad that Aina eventually found her way to YouTube where she could do what she loves!
However, Aina hasn’t always been able to enjoy a luxurious lifestyle with this kind of wealth.
Apparently, the family was forced to live in shelters on three separate occasions.
Their most well-known joint appearance is probably in Aina’svideo"Black Girls React to Tarte Shape Tape Foundation."
She wrote, “It was such a turning point for me.
Aina and McGrath have actually worked together multiple times.
Aina explained their incredibly supportive relationship, saying, “She’s taken me to fashion week in Milan.
I’ve traveled to Japan with her.”
Apparently, McGrath has even helped Aina develop new business plans.
In anothervideo, Aina opened up about what the procedure was like for her.
No doubt the information she shared educated others on the process.
In 2019, she decided to take a Twitter break.
Aina realized that she had been in need of a social media detox for some time.
Think it’s time you take a break from Twitter?
Don’t ignore thesigns you need a social media detox.
The palette was released in collaboration with well-known makeup company Anastasia Beverly Hills.
According toTeen Vogue, the palette is “straight glam” and we aren’t surprised to hear it!
What a meaningful and powerful campaign!
After her unsuccessful first marriage and eventual divorce, Aina finally found true love in partner Denis Asamoah.
Aina announced the engagement on herInstagrampage with a stunning video that showed off her blinding engagement ring.
Asamoah certainly didn’t pull any stops while proposing.
Heexplained, “The proposal took place on a private rooftop and had a direct view to the sunset!
This terrace was the perfect setting for a private dinner and proposal.
Sade is Jackie’s favorite artist and I had a saxophonist play her favorite hits throughout the night.”
We honestly cannot think of a cuter or more romantic proposal!
As a proud activist, Jackie Aina made her voice heard throughout the movement.
She shared her thoughts in an Instagram story, which has been posted onTwitter.
It’s the least it’s possible for you to do.”
Clearly Aina isn’t afraid to speak her mind and stand up for what’s right.
