Hey ladies!! It’s Wednesday already???!!! I personally don’t know where time supposedly went but it seems as though we gained an hour, we lost time with the sweeping in of the cold and dark spaces as the sunlight begins to fade a tad earlier than we would choose.

However, straightening natural hair has always been a touchy subject since putting any sort of heat on it is usually a major no-no. In fact, it’s a big reason why many people have made the transition to go natural (so they can prevent heat damage and keep their strands healthy).
It also sparked a longstanding debate about whet
I must admit that, a part of the reason why I kept my hair super short for as long as I did, is because I didn’t want to go through the hassle of wash day or styling it. But now that I’m on the quest of getting some real length back, it has been a longer journey of trial and error when it comes to figuring out what works best in the least amount of time.
As far as wash day goes, we’ll have to tackle that at another time. For now, if you’re a naturalista who’s past
On a Thursday in September, Chelsea Lee, lead singer of the up-and-coming electropop band SHAED, emerged from the middle of a glittering pool at the Chateau Marmont, her cheekbones glistening and pout gleaming as she howled into the microphone under the Full Moon. All eyes were on Lee, and her gorgeous makeup that exemplified fall's biggest beauty trends. "I wanted Chelsea's whole look to feel like a shimmery star," says Kara Yoshimoto Bua, Chanel celebrity makeup artist, who was responsi

So bae popped the question, and it’s time to start planning your wedding. Congrats! Your to-do list might be packed with purchasing your dream dress, securing your venue, testing out cake flavors.

Avocados are a well-known source of healthy fats to include in our diets, as most people know. They’re rich in certain mono-unsaturated and poly-unsaturated fats that keep our hearts healthy, lower cholesterol, and they even contain fiber and protein to keep us full.

Oscar-winning actress Viola Davis is adding another achievement to her already impeccable resume: L’Oréal Paris spokesperson.
