Nollywood actress , Beverly Naya has tackled the issue of self love, as part of her #FiftyShadesOfBlack Campaign.

Using young women of different sizes and colour, she asked them to write down words that people use in describing them, compared to how they see themselves.

Speaking about the campaign, the actress said:

“Sometime mid last year I decided to start a campaign called #FiftyShadesOfBlack. The original purpose of the campaign was to encourage women and young girls to see beauty in all shades of black because there is no hierarchy of beauty determined by complexion in my opinion. I began to think deeply about how I could strengthen this campaign and with each day on this journey, I came to realise that black beauty equates to much more than what we see on the outside, it starts from within. I thought to myself, if I’m able to inspire young girls, even if its just one to love themselves from within then in turn they will teach others.”
