Beauty-Monday Februrary 9, 2009



I always find it to be a a life altering choice every time I walk into the nail salon. I walk up to the counter and say "I need a mani/pedi" and then comes the the hardest desicion of the day for me. "Okay pick your color" I stare at the wall of nail color. To men all he can see is red, pink, white, and black. To us ladies...it's a specturm. First we must chose which shade would we like, then we must chose if we want a shimmer or not, and last but not least does the color blend with our skin tone.

How many of you guys have sat down, recieved the full manicure and as you sit at the dryers you realize how much you can't stand the color! Well I'm glad to announce that there maybe something to help assist you for your next visit to the nail salon.

In my opinion OPI is one of the best nail polishes of all time! It never clumps, it goes on smooth and the colors are amazing. And their website offers one of the best features ever.

The site offers a Try-On-This-Color feature, where you can choose your skin tone and try on one of the hundred colors that OPI offers on the model hand.

This allows you to test out that new funky color you saw on one of your favorite celebs but wasn't quite sure how it would look on you.

Such a great feature and such a great nail polish. I hope this bit of info was helpful!

Hey Everyone!

Hey! Welcome to my brain child!!! I have for so long wanted to create my own magazine that was geared towards young women of color. When I say women of colour I mean of all ethnicity. Not to knock down some of my favorite magazines, but being an African-American young woman, it frustrates me when many of the articles on beauty or the ads or filled with white woman. Our country is changing and for the majority is on the same level and we are finally accepting our diverse nation. It's time that our media begins to realize this and act accordingly. But I know that like with all things it will only take time. So I hope you enjoy and find my articles to be of interest.

I look forward to your feedback!!!
