With September coming to a serious standstill ahead of us (not every place has pumpkin spiced everything and not every Dollar Store has their 1 million and 1 Halloween decorations up, so it is infact, a standstill), I conclude that the majority of my August faves are coming to an end. They basically left with August and for good reason. Here are my "empties" (product goodies that seem to be wearing T H I N):

I’ve used those colourful bath bombs before…

Permanent makeup is a technique of applying makeup with a permanent pigmentation that resembles real and natural makeup such as enhancing the colours of the skin, improving the eye lining and accentuating the lips. One of the most common applications is to create artificial eyebrows or to disguise scars due to a surgery or an accident.

African American women have always taken pride in their crown, which is our hair. According to the website Hype Hair, which promotes the latest hair trends for women of color, states that black women "spend nearly nine times more than our non-Black counterparts on ethnic hair and beauty products. Add in $473 million in total hair care, $127 million grooming aids and $465 million in skin care preparations, and we spend a whopping $1.1 billion on beauty annually." Other beauty brands are taking notice and are creating products specifically for women of color. The hot comb created by Annie Malone and later improved my Madame CJ Walker, African America's first self-made millionaire, is a staple in women of color's homes for centuries and decades. The hot comb is equivalent to a man's shave kit. It's one of the many stages that reflect womanhood. It's a comb that lays flat on top of the stove, and it heats up and combs through your hair to straighten. It was the go-to product before the flatiron existed.

I've received three FabFitFun boxes so far and the most recent 2019 Spring Box has been my favourite so far by a landslide. With past boxes, I've received some things that I wouldn't necessarily get any use out of, so I would end up putting those items into a giveaway. I can honestly say that, with this box, I loved absolutely everything.

But, those interested in a more permanent solution may want to splurge on laser hair removal.

On August 13th, the Morphe X Jeffree Star artistery eyeshadow palette launched, which is exactly two days before the release of Jackie Aina’s collaboration with Anastasia Beverly Hills for her own eyeshadow palette. To be very honest, I do not care for Jeffree Star, at all. Jackie, on the other hand, is one of my biggest inspirations and so I will not even try to be impartial in this discussion. However, I cannot help myself but be very curious as to why Jackie’s collab was so heavily criticized by many, people insinuating that she did not deserve it, and that ABH should have given this opportunity to another youtuber (*insert here a list of all the White beauty gurus on youtube.*) Once I recognized that pattern in people’s opinions, I then started wondering how come Jeffree Star’s collab didn’t receive such backlash and how come his empire is only getting bigger and bigger regardless of his shady past. Now the answer to that last question is pretty easy: not many people ever had an issue with his past, or perhaps… they ''forgave'' him.

I started off as not a huge fan of the beauty community. I didn't wear makeup and had no desire to, but as I aged and started watching tutorials and finding my love for makeup, I was sucked into the community.

Dear Beauty,

Okay, I know what you're thinking: You can't just become a natural redhead if you weren't already born one. And while that's mostly true (I say mostly because my little brother who has strawberry blond hair recently developed a full-on ginger beard), I promise, my red hair is all natural.

When I was born I had thick black hair and gray eyes. As the years went by, my hair turned dark brown as did my eyes, and when I stood outside it looked like I had red hair. Of course, that wasn't enough for me, I wanted to be a blonde. My mother let me dye my hair when I was in my teens, but she would only let me use browns or black, no blonde.

While you may be mourning as the heat and sunshine recede, the leaves change, and it begins to snow as one season passes into the next, you can find comfort in the fact that colder temperatures mean that now is the time to change up your makeup. During the summer, when you know you will spend time sweating while you're away from a fan or AC unit, it can seem useless to spend a lot of time on your makeup. In the winter though? Makeup brightens up an often dreary season. This is the time to experiment with layers of eyeshadow, full-coverage foundation, long, fake eyelashes, and the best eye makeup looks for winter you could ever imagine.
