The Problem with non black owned businesses

I just got wind that some of the of the brand that we know and love are in fact: NOT BLACK OWNED.

yup these are included are 

Black Radiance brand by Markwins

Black Opal 

Sacha Cosmetics and….

Black Up cosmetics

I have a very big problem with this… because these companies are misrepresenting themselves and tend to be more readily available for consumption than the average black owned brand. I can’t just go into sephora and pick up Mented cosmetics, and although I love having packages mailed,  I’m not a fan of shipping(so sue me).

Black people are not in the position to willy nilly give our money to outside resources. African communities around the world are the POOREST although we have the most resources.

It’s something about people from other cultures who believe we are so dumb as to do whatever they say just because they said it.

And even though the team over at Black Radiance is black managed I cannot allow myself to go on promote it as a black owned product.

I’ve always known of Iman Cosmetics having our back before anybody else thought about us. So that’s i’ll be mostly endorsing from now on.

Plant Power

Beauty is more than what we put on our face and bodies. It's how we treat others. Sometimes we assume that when put things on out bodies that we are treating ourselves well, then we think other will treat us well based on appearance. When go out of our way to do another thing for a human than we are setting the standard for a wonderfully cyclical life of happiness. It's starts at home. Self care, care for family, care for plants, animals, and the world. It may seem hopeless now, but it WILL workout in the end. I'm a plant mom to 4 little plant munchkins and had been neglecting the due to my own #depression but I couldn't leave them like that any longer…. My babies names are Shaniqua, ShoShanna, SheCohnda, and SheNenè… DuskEnchantment.com #blackpower #gentlereminder #blackculture #melaninpoppin #darkskin #weloveblackgirls #melanin #blackwoman #blackgirlsrock #toodarkforwho #blackisbeautiful #blacklives #melaningoals #weareblack #allthingsblack #tooblackforewho #blackpride #blackwoman #iloveblackgirls #nobleach #blackalltheway #africanchild #blackandbeautiful #melanin #melaninslayers #blackslayers #darkskingirls #blackgirlmagic

I wrote a small article the other day on the DuskEnchantment and it went a little like this …

Bringing the New Sexy Back

hey in All! 

Just wanted to let you guys know I’ll be bringing sexy back, yes in fact. I do realize that big hair has been back for some time but I mean BIGGER THAN THAT….

I noticed old school movie stars used to wear big hair and today we have a tendency to wear it flat and sleek. Even in our protective styling we tend to stretch the curl for a flatter look. But then we go and pick the roots….So I’ll be going old school and wearing big hair with a modern twist…

Music Moment feature

Anderson.Paak

What are we listening to right now? Cali Natives so we’re in love this band. Remind me of home. I suggest you give it a listen because this band was really impressive on the Black Panther soundtrack.

So Much to do and little time to do it in.

Fenty Beauty

Diamonds by Dominique

Beauty Bakerie setting powder

When it comes to your self care needs there can seem like there’s so much to do and very little time to do it in. 

My suggestion is to work from head to toe.

1st. Put your music on

2. light your candle

3.Get that deep conditioning mask in your hair. 

4. Put on the face mask of your choice

5. Dry brush you skin

6. Put your body chemical peel on(optional)

7. Deep condition fingers and toes

8. Get in shower and wash it all off at the same time

9. read your book choice

After following this list accordingly, things should feel significantly easier!
