The Youthist Scholarship - Beauty and Fashion

In a bid to not only improve visibility on the issue but also help contribute to the raising costs of higher education The Youthist (www.theyouthist.com) has created a scholarship program. If you’re a high school senior, undergraduate, or graduate student who is passionate about racial diversity, then this is the scholarship for you. The Youthist was launched with the aim of providing in-depth content on beauty and skincare. Our platform has coverage on topics ranging from the best vitamins for skin, the best blackhead removal tools, the importance of humidifiers for skin and even airbrush makeup.
