Primer Makeup- Can I Skip This Step to Save Some Time?

Primer Makeup- Can I Skip This Step to Save Some Time
                                                    Cosmetics Photography by Island Boi Photogtaphy

When it comes to getting ready for school or work, sometimes time can be of the essence. We have one leg in our boot cut jeans, one arm hanging out of our crop top sweater and one free hand desperately applying layers of mascara. So then, as any busy girl can attest to, doing only what is truly necessary can really be the key to staying on top of a busy schedule. Therefore, when it comes to applying makeup, is primer makeup one of those things that can be skipped in order to save a few precious seconds? Girl, no! Allow us to answer this beauty question, by presenting some pretty compelling reasons why this vital step should never be ignored!

Primer Makeup- Can I Skip This Step to Save Some Time?

Primer Makeup- Can I Skip This Step to Save Some Time

Let’s just be clear about one thing, primer is utilized for more than just the reason you think it is formulated to be used for when applied. For instance, most know that primer makeup is an excellent product to help create a very smooth canvas for your make up. Think of it like building a house. You don’t just build a house on un-level ground and hope that it will last and hold up. No, you level everything out so that it’s nice and smooth and then you build upon that. Confident that not only the house can now be built correctly, but it will also last for a very long time.

That is thrust as well as one of the benefits of using a primer. You are giving your make up a smooth base to be built upon. Plus, you’re also giving your make up what it needs to last longer as well as stay put.

Primer Makeup- The Common But Majorly Overlooked Benefit

Primer Makeup- Can I Skip This Step to Save Some Time

Nevertheless, what is one of the other benefits of using primer make up that often gets overlooked? Here it is: it is great for your personal skincare routine. How so?

Primer has the ability to not only moisturize skin, but it can also create a protective barrier over the skin. The hydration part can be pretty self-explanatory due to the moisturizing ingredients found in most primers; however, you may be wondering just exactly how primer can provide protection?

Well, it accomplishes this by sealing in any skincare treatment products you may use during your daily skincare routine. This includes any moisturizer or sunscreen you may have previously applied, and yes us melanin girls need sunscreen too. However, more on that in our upcoming feature on the super cool product, Black Girl Sunscreen.

Primer Makeup- It Is Time to Choose, But How?

Primer Makeup- Can I Skip This Step to Save Some Time

Nonetheless, now that you know why primer make up is awesome for not only cosmetics but for skincare products, you need to know which ones will work best for you. The best way to pick the right one is to choose a primer that works for your own skin type. You may need to ask yourself: Is my skin dry? Does my skin tend to be oily? Or perhaps, can my skin use a little help in order to have a more even tone?

After a little self reflection about your skin, you are now ready to pick a primer makeup product. Here are a few quick tips to keep in mind:

The Oily Skin Girl: Always look for a mattifying primer. These types of primers are your friend because it helps to keep any extra shine at bay. You may also choose to use a setting spray for even more shine control.

The Un-even Girl: Try using a color correcting primer to help even out your skintone. For instance, if you notice your skin includes redness from irritation look for a color correcting primer with green undertones. These types of primers can help to counteract any red in the skin.

The Dull Skin Girl: The best primer for you is an illuminating primer. This type of primer will help you to get your glow on thanks to reflective particles. No longer will your skin look dull and lifeless, but it will glisten with a slight sheen.

Primer Makeup- Don’t Waste It, How to Apply It The Right Way

Primer Makeup- Can I Skip This Step to Save Some Time

Okay so we have learned why it’s important to use primer makeup as well as how to pick the right one. Nevertheless, now it will be a good idea to learn how to apply it correctly in order to gain the most benefits.

Start off by applying primer to a sponge or your fingers. Next, dab the primer onto your nose, chin, forehead as well as cheeks. Begin at the center of your face working out to the edges. Also, be sure to blend the primer make up into your skin by going in a downward direction.

Why apply make up going down? This is so those little hairs on your face will lay down nice and pretty. This very technique can also be used when applying foundation.

So there you have it primer is great for makeup as well as skincare. There are many ways to skip or cheat when doing your makeup but this is not one of them. Plus, when used correctly a primer makeup product can help you achieve the makeup finish of your dreams!

Black Girl Fitness- Should I Take a Multivitamin or is it Unnecessary?

 

Take a Multivitamin
   Fitness Model Jamesha LaMonica with Photography by Photos by Darrin

Should I take a multivitamin? That is the question that is plaguing many health-conscious ladies around the world. Furthermore, things get even more confusing when experts with varying views and opinions also weigh in on this topic.

For instance, some health experts say that eating only good, clean, nutritious food is all a person needs. Yet, others still believe strongly that consuming a multivitamin has its place in a proper diet. Therefore, who is right and who is wrong? Also, should taking a multivitamin be a decision that is made more due to a person’s lifestyle or schedule?

Black Girl Fitness- Should I Take a Multivitamin or is it Unnecessary?

Take a Multivitamin

The truth is multivitamins cannot replace good nutritious food, however, they can help. Mr. David Levinsky is a professor at Cornell University. In regards to taking multivitamins daily he says, “I take a multivitamin every day as a little insurance policy. For certain groups of healthy people, especially those whose diet has nutritional gaps, a multivitamin can help fill in those gaps.”

Moreover, health and nutrition expert Madelyn Fernstrom offers up another good reason as to why taking multivitamins could be a benefit. Fernstrom is a professor at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. In reference to multivitamins Madelyn says, “In a perfect world we would all eat a variety of fruits and vegetables. We would all exercise regularly, but that’s not a reality. People can be strapped for time or money and don’t meet their daily nutrient needs. Also, you have to remember that many studies look at large population groups, not individuals.”

Should I Take a Multivitamin or is it Unnecessary?

So then, if a person does decide to take a multivitamin doing so will have its benefits. No, it will never take the place of a good meal. However it will have the ability to help supplement an already healthy diet so that a person can meet the recommended requirements for certain minerals as well as vitamins.

Nevertheless, that brings us to a brand-new issue. What type of supplement or multivitamin should a person take? Also, are all multivitamins created equal?

The scary answer to that last question is that, no, not all multivitamins are created equal. That is because some companies are allowed to sell multivitamins that are not even hundred percent completely derived from actual food. A real concern for anyone who is just trying to live a healthier lifestyle.

Take a Multivitamin or is it Unnecessary? (Cont.)

Take a Multivitamin

However, there is a practical solution to this health issue. Enter… Silver Fern Brand Whole Food Multivitamin. What makes this brand of multivitamin so different? Silver Fern answers, “Here at Silver Fern we believe you should get the most of your vitamins and minerals through the food you eat! But sometimes it’s hard to consume 8 cups of broccoli 11 cups of kale and 33 cups of spinach in the day we made it easy with our whole food multivitamin just two little capsules a day get the job done!”

But wait there’s even more benefits to taking Whole Foods multivitamins. Silver Fern continues, “A lot of you are wondering about multivitamins and why ours are different. So here it is: vitamins can be synthetic or natural. Many of the multivitamins on the market are synthetic parentheses meaning made in a lab parentheses rather than from actual real food! Companies can label it as natural as long as it contains 10% derived from plants. Silver Fern vitamins are hundred percent natural. Every bit coming from real fruits and vegetables! They are blended up and then we remove the cellulose (plant fiber) sugar, and protein… leaving dense nutrients that are then freeze-dried. We care what you put in your body and it was a frustration with what was on the market that drove us to create this unbeatable product!”

Confidence Building Activities – Daily Beauty Quote December 18, 2017

Confidence Building Activities
Photography by the Renonwn Joyanne Faith Panton

To be successful in anything you have to feel like you can, you are worth it and you can not be stopped. Basically, it boils down to one word… confidence. Therefore, we decided to develop this success driven feature on Confidence Building Activities. What helped spark this post? Well, did you catch our daily Melanin Magic tweet this morning? It was simple and sweet and read as:

“Makeup is art. Beauty is spirit.”

-Anonymous

Instantly, our tweet gained numerous retweets as well as favorites. Therefore, we take it that many of you want more than “skin deep” results. True confidence is the product of what we find within.

Confidence Building Activities -How to Do it

So then, what are some ways that one can develop as well as maintain confidence? First of all, you have to look at it almost as physical training. For instance, when you want to gain more tone or muscle what do you do?

Most likely, you begin some sort of workout training regimen as well as make some tweaks to your diet choices. In time, the results start to show not just to yourself but to onlookers and people who know you well. The same is true when it comes to developing confidence.

You have to work at it regularly and consistently. Moreover, you may need to make a few tweaks to yourself or how you do things. Nevertheless, if you do and stick with it soon the results will be clearly manifest.

Confidence Building Activities – What to Do

Below you will find several confidence building activities that you can engage in to help to say goodbye to insecurity and hello to the new you! Remember, like training your body, attaining confidence can take a little time. However, do not give up, you were made to achieve great things! Furthermore, by incorporating a few of these activities into your daily schedule you will be well on your way.

Speak Positively of Yourself– Taking to yourself can at first seem like a really creepy thing to be doing, however, the outcome is higher self-esteem. Try looking into a mirror and saying something positive about yourself. Most people do not realize all the negative thoughts they entertain every day.

Those thoughts over time can wreak havoc because we start to believe it. Therefore, in order to undo and combat negativity saying something nice is essential. Focus on your accomplishments. Say to yourself, “I am really proud of how I finished that school or work project early.” Or perhaps, “I look really nice today!”

Simple positive acknowledgments can have awesome long term effects. Eventually, harmful thoughts will be replaced with good ones and your actions will soon follow.

5 Compliment Journal- This activity is very close to the positive speaking builder, the only difference is that you will write your feelings down. Purchase a journal that will allow you to write down daily 5 positive things about yourself. Can simply be words describing yourself such as: Happy, Kind, Hard-working, Energetic and Driven.

Or you may choose to be more descriptive. Either way is acceptable and will help you to root out insecurities. Never forget that positive thoughts result in positive outcomes. So then, take time to feel great about yourself daily and watch the magic happen!

Confidence Building Activities (Cont.)

Set Goals and Challenges– Think of success like a ladder, you can’t skip rungs to get to the top without running the risk of injury. Therefore, save yourself the trouble by putting in the steady work required. Start off by setting small goals for yourself that will help you to reach your bigger goals.

For example, if you desire to be in better shape. Start off by having the goal of working out for 20 minutes three to five times a week. Once that becomes routine you have accomplished your goal! Next, challenge yourself to try a new exercise or bump up your workouts to 25 or 30 minutes.

As you set, work towards and accomplish your goals you will be simultaneously building more confidence. It is a win win situation that will leave you in a better state mentally, emotionally as well as physically.

Workout and Exercise– Speaking of physically, ever heard the saying, “When you look good, you feel good?” Well, it is as true now as it was when the first man or woman uttered it.

Exercise not only releases endorphins so that you will feel happier, but it can help you look your best as well. Now we are not saying you have to be super skinny to have confidence. No, but being healthy for your body type can help you feel more powerful, influential and commanding.

You are the commander and captain of your life. Feeling your best can put you in a positive space that allows you to take control because your quality of self has improved. It may have started outside, however, you will be most affected inwardly.

Confidence Building Activities – You’re Not Perfect and Trust Us, It’s Okay

No one can go every day feeling like the world is all rainbows and sunshine. However, you can always choose to make lemonade out of lemons. Throughout life for us ladies there tends to be certain things that “bring us down.” Knowing and being able to spot them is the best way to stay in control of them.

Browse the chart below and see if you identify. Remember, you are not alone, all of us can use a boost in confidence from time to time. Just know that it can be gained regardless of your background, childhood, past or mistakes. You CAN be successful and you WILL be successful if you take steps daily and never give up!

Let’s just cut right to the chase, shall we? High kicks are great when utilized as a warm up exercise or as a killer cardio move. Some of the benefits you can gain from this one explosive exercise are:

  • Tone the abs
  • Healthy stress reliever
  • Sculpt the legs
  • Burn calories and melt fat
  • Enhanced coordination
  • Improve the flexibility of the hamstrings
  • Fast movement (kicks) gets the heart pumping which in turn helps to burn more calories
  • Increases lower body as well as core strength
  • Can improve performance in martial arts, cheerleading and gymnastics

High Kicks

An exercise that hits two common problem areas? Uhm, count us in! High kicks can be performed starting from a lunge or squat position. Or by simply balancing on one leg while kicking the other leg up and as high as you comfortably can.

Start by doing three sets of 15-20 reps. Work up to being able to kick for an extended amount of time or even a set amount. Some pros even do a 1,000 kick challenge! Not necessary to see real results, but nothing like a good challenge in order to reach your fitness goals.
