Arianne January 2, 2019January 2, 2019

SHOTS Fired! Looks like we got us a good ol’ makeup battle going on in the beauty realm! With the release of Morphe cosmetics new 60 shade deep foundation, many were wondering what Fenty Beauty was up to in that very department. Well, don’t think for one second the queen is not always working on that new new. Just today Rih revealed that 2019 will see the fulfillment of Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Foundation 50 shades lineup. Yup, the Fenty’s foundation range is growing and we are here for it all!

Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Foundation 50 Shades -10 NEW Tones

So what’s new? Well, if you recall, Fenty Beauty started it all when it released 40 shades of foundation that fit a large range of skin tones. An area in beauty that often did not receive much attention. However, that was just the start for Rihanna. The singer has been consistently adding more colors to all of her various product creations; from Gloss Bombs to Mattemoiselle lippies.

Now Rih’s already extensive and successful 40 tone foundation is gaining 10 new hues in the sisterhood. In regards of this new release the brand says,

“But are y’all really ready?!? We are adding 10 more Pro Filt’r Foundation shades, for a total of 50, to the collection. These shades were specifically created by Rihanna to match skin tones y’all didn’t know we could.

Same soft-matte, longwearing, light as air; and photo-shoot ready formula that y’all know and love. With more shades to match more skin tones! Get it on January 11 at fentybeauty.com, Sephora, Harvey Nichols and Sephora in JCP!”

Morphe Fluidity Foundations -60 Shades of Foundation!

ArianneUpdated on January 2, 2019January 2, 2019

Rihanna… girl, look what you have started! Since the genesis of Fenty Beauty, several cosmetics companies have been hard at work in the lab developing foundations that more suitably match their consumer base. The first exciting foundation release of 2019; hands down is the Morphe Fluidity Foundation. A beauty product that boasts a jaw-dropping 60 different shades!

Morphe Fluidity Foundations -60 Shades of Foundation

No that is no typo. 60. 60 shades of foundation is on the table for us over at Morphe. The brand has been a tad bit cryptic, not really giving much away about all of this. Regarding their upcoming release Morphe simply reveals,

“Leave no tone unturned. Introducing Fluidity. 60 tone-empowering shades, for every babe. Launching 1.17.19.”

As one can see, Morphe isn’t trying to say much at all yet. Maybe they don’t want to oversell it; because of the wild success Fenty Beauty is still having. However, this foundation release is nothing to just brush off.

It is still another drop in the bucket that helps to improve the state of the beauty industry. For years, many skin tones have been ignored and now brands are finally waking up to the fact that light, medium and dark just won’t cut it.

One thing that we love so far about this product is that… well, actually there’s quite a bit to love. Besides the awesome range in colors, Fluidity is also:

Transfer Resistant
Longwear
Parabens Free
Water Resistant
Oil Free
Sweat Proof
Fragrance Free

Ugh… we stan Morphe, take our money already! Therefore, how much will Fluidity cost you? Get this… it’s UNDER $20! Yes, Morphe Fluidity Foundation will retail for just $18. 2019 is looking real real good!

Want a preview of the Fluidity’s tones? Watch the video below:

PSSST… there’s more… Morphe is also releasing concealer and powder shades! More on that later today so check back!

HOLD UP… Serena Williams Covers Teen Vogue December 2018 Issue! The magazine hit up social media this morning to announce it by stating, “Our December cover is Serena Williams! [In this issue you can] read her conversation with activist Naomi Wadler and new Teen Vogue editor-in-chief Lindsay Peoples Wagner.”

This cover comes on the heels of the trio (Williams, Wadler and Wagner) getting together for the recent Teen Vogue Summit. An event where hundreds of influencers and young leaders flock to make new friends, challenge new ideas and work to make the world better.

Furthermore, Wagner is continuing to make black girl history; since she has become the latest Editor of color to head a major print/digital publication. Lindsay has only been the Editor-in-Chief of Teen Vogue for a little over a month. However, she looks forward to working hard and bringing continuous amazing content to the table.

Serena Williams Covers Teen Vogue December 2018 Issue

For the edition Serena makes quite a fashion statement. The tennis superstar demonstrates how to mix glamour with relaxed couture. How? Well, be sure to dissect her shot in which she rocks a green animal print ensemble.

At first glance, the Off White snakeskin, ruffle number seems to be doing all the style taking; however, do a double take. Underneath you will notice Williams pairing it with a pair of stylish pants. The bottoms are from her very own fashion label, Serena.

Nevertheless, peer even closer and you notice an even more awesome fashion find and trend… sneakers. Yes, those are Nikes peeking out and in no way harms the overall vibe of her look. Sneakers and dresses are a chic, fun fit seen on everyone from Rihanna to Beyoncé. As a result, we love the fashion risk-taking spotted in this issue and think it is absolutely perfect for a mag as trend-licious as Teen Vogue!

Living Coral-Pantone Color of the Year for 2019

ArianneUpdated on December 6, 2018December 6, 2018

For some 20 years Pantone has released a yearly color which embodies the mood and vibe for the upcoming year. So then, what is the shade for 2019? Just announced… Living Coral- Pantone Color of the Year for 2019!

Nevertheless, not quite sure what this color is or what does it convey? No worries, Pantone always makes sure to explain their choice in full detail. Regarding Living Coral Pantone says,

“Introducing the Pantone Color of the Year 2019, Pantone 16-1546 Living Coral. An animating and life-affirming coral hue with a golden undertone that energizes and enlivens with a softer edge.

Sociable and spirited, the engaging nature of Living Coral welcomes and encourages lighthearted activity. Symbolizing our innate need for optimism and joyful pursuits. Living Coral embodies our desire for playful expression.”

Living Coral-Pantone Color of the Year for 2019

One question that we have already received is: why does it seem like this color is changing between several different tones? Is it like an orange or a pink?

The truth is, coral is not always the same color! When found in nature coral tones can range from a gorgeous pinkish red-orange to a rosy pink to even a rare gold. Therefore, under different light tones can seem quite different.

Furthermore, many consider Living Coral to be among the “sunset” hues. Think of all the beautiful sunsets that incorporate orange, pink, red, strong pinks all melded together in a tantalizing way. If the sky can look so mesmerizing just think what you will look like in this color all 2019!

Spotted: Michelle Obama Covers Good Housekeeping January 2019 Issue!

ArianneUpdated on December 4, 2018December 4, 2018

With a best-seller book under her belt; gorgeous former FLOTUS, Michelle Obama, is also adding yet another stunning mag cover to her collection. Michelle Obama Covers Good Housekeeping January 2019 issue — and she is revealing even more exclusive details! Such as? Well, readers will learn of more details regarding Obama’s life inside and now outside the White House; and just good ol’ advice from the most educated First Lady in history.

Michelle Obama Covers Good Housekeeping January 2019 Issue

Does Michelle have a favorite White House moment? Well, after living there for almost a decade we are sure she has several. Yet, Obama tells Good Housekeeping,

“It’s impossible to single out one day, because there were so many good ones, but something that always made me feel good was being around children and young people. We made sure that kids — ordinary kids, not just the kids of a donor or a Congressman — had access to folks like Justin Timberlake; Janelle Monae; and Smokey Robinson talking about the doubts and struggles they fought through; giving their time to inspire young people.

I’d walk away from those events so hopeful. Who knows what dreams these kids could have for themselves after that!”

As one can see, while at the White House, the Obamas were kept extremely busy with various engagements. Nevertheless, what about now? Has things eased up? On how much rest she is able to get now, Michelle states,

“Thankfully, more (and it’s more regular). I’ll always be grateful for the opportunity that living in the White House afforded us; but it probably won’t come as a surprise to anyone that sometimes it was a real challenge to keep up with the pace.

We’d be launching an initiative, or crisscrossing the country for campaign events; or visiting a community that was hurting from a tornado or a senseless shooting –sometimes all in a two-or-three-day span. Then, on top of the demands of our schedules, I’d usually need to wake up long before Barack to get my hair and makeup done and dress for a public event.

I laugh about how easy it was for Barack to choose his wardrobe –tie or no tie? ‘What do you think, honey, should I roll up my sleeves?’ These days, I’m more in control of my time.”

Michelle Obama Covers Good Housekeeping January 2019 Issue (Continued)

With just about 24 million Instagram followers, it is clear that Michelle Obama comes across super approachable. Being loved by many all around the world, regardless of their culture, race or backrounds. Nevertheless, what about those who may struggle to be as “magnetic?”

“The best advice I can give here is the simplest: I think everyone just has to be themselves. Of course, it’s not always easy to be yourself, particularly if you’re entering a new environment.”
