Beauty knows no color, and I'm not referring to a cosmetic palette.

In 3rd grade, we were having field day. My teacher was putting sun-screen on everyone in the class, she then skipped me and I told her "You forgot to put sun-screen on me." she then told me "You are already dark enough, you don't need any." Now mind you, I'm but not dark. It's crazy what you get told as a chid being black.

Good idea for an article but maybe they should speak to some women of color first.

It does mean that we age well. I'm not buying ths bougeious version. Black women shoud ask their families directly. We do communicate like some other cultures and need to stop looking outside our families for answers that are generated by filtered opinions that are not supported by cultural truths. Thats why doctors still don't understand our histories. Yes, we need sunscreen and many of us already know about Shea butter, argan oil and coconut oil from our ancestors used to more sun prominent climates. because our lifestyles have taken on the more white American rather than Southern, Native American or African standards, we buy into the beauty plans but my grandma and mother and aunties have lived to tell. We keep buying commercial standards and white beauty standards and need to learn from Europeans over Americans who just promote for the sake of buying. Like Mid-eastern women, there are more standards than US commercial ones Ponds Cold Cream and simple products like Dove or Ivory soap kept my grandma looking 50 at 90. But these are the only white products I would invest in Don't believe the hype. Go to the source,the natural black or Latin skin care sources and ask them directly.

I always thought "black don't crack" just meant that we age well.. I didn't know it meant we were excused from the sunscreen rule. I never thought that! In fact, I thought we has to put on MORE sunscreen than other complexions! .. And I hate the stigma that black women can ONLY have "golden" and almost orange highlights or else it won't look good. If you mix in actual colors of blondes and balance it out, it look fabulous and has definition. That's what I did and I'll never change it.. in fact, it gets even blonder in the sun.

There are some black women born with blonde hair...NOT bleached blonde but extremely light hair closer to yellowish tents

the tips on blonde hair we're really interesting, I didn't think it could work on African American women

I love nude lippies. The funny thing is I tend to always pick peachy colors. I guess I have been doing it right all along.

by GetGlamoured Friday, June 8, 2012 at 08:07AM Report as inappropriate

I think the blonde would only work with lighter skinned African Americans...hints, the model they used for the article is VERY light skinned and Beyonce is too. If they were going to say this, they should have used a darker skin toned woman. Pretty good article though

I don't like blond hair on african-american women. I just don't think it looks natural at all; I'm not saying it always looks BAD...just not natural. Some people who have the money to get it done right are fortunate but not everyone is. Oh well.
