Arianne Suggs July 16, 2015July 16, 2015Leave a Comment

There are so many things that run through our minds as soon as our phones are suddenly held at eye level. Does my hair look like I just walked a red carpet? Did I beat my face enough or can I use a little more eyeliner? OMG…is that really something in my teeth?

As stressful as those scenarios may sound what could ultimately be a bathroom photo shoot selfie stopper is a dare we say, PIMPLE! These horrible little buggers seem to pop up whenever we are trying to be the wonderful diva we are inside. Well fret no more for now we present 5 skincare tips to help build selfie confidence!

1. Aim to use cleansers that contain salicylic acid or alpha hydroxyl acid which are amazing ingredients for unclogging pores.

2. Always apply moisturizer after washing your face in order to replace any moisture that was lost during cleansing.

3. Of course, we know you must use your hands to apply moisturizer but that’s all the touching that should really occur. Continuously touching the face runs the risk of transferring oils or bacteria to your skin.

4. Get into the habit of exfoliating your skin twice a week with products containing small grainy particles or micro-beads. Using such products will not only help to keep pores unclogged but will aid in new skin cell growth.

5. When it comes to cleansing use the twice daily rule. Cleaning your skin more often then that on a daily basis can actually create more inflammation and acne.

Alright girls those are 5 skincare tips that you can store in your back pocket. Now get out there and take some killer selfies! See ya on the Gram…

Fashionable Mention: Keke Palmer Wearing Georges Chakra Fall 2015

Arianne SuggsUpdated on July 13, 2015July 13, 2015Leave a Comment

There are not enough adjectives in the English language to describe the fierceness of this look! Comic Con was not ready for the heat that was Keke Palmer as she burned up the red carpet. Palmer was attending Entertainment Weekly’s Comic Con soirée when she made all heads go SWOOSH!

Palmer stepped out wearing a purple cut-out jumpsuit from the Georges Chakra Fall 2015 collection. If you look up the meaning behind the shade of purple you will find that it conveys,

“Wealth, extravagance, creativity, wisdom, dignity, grandeur… [and] is often associated with royalty, nobility, luxury, power and ambition.”

By that definition we have to agree that KeKe oozed of luxury and sass. With such royal appeal there is no wonder as to why she is a Scream Queen.

Beauty Notes: Women always seem to wonder is it okay to match one’s makeup to their ensemble? The answer is a resounding yes! Matching your beauty look to your outfit helps to pull the overall look together. Don’t know where to start or the rules for making the matchy-matchy makeup look work? Just take a page from KeKe and stick to matching one facial feature to your outfit. Palmer chose the lips and matched the lipstick shade with her jumpsuit and BOOM! A fashion and beauty goddess is born!
