ROYALTY: Be A Queen In More Ways Than One

 If I'm on a budget, but still want perfection, I choose COVERGIRL Queen Collections products! The newest product that I swear by is the All Day Flawless 3 in 1, a foundation,  concealer and powder! It saves me money because I can use this one product instead of buying all three! It is light and allows me to cover my blemishes just as I would expect from any concealer!

INTERVIEW: Ice Creme Beauty Bar With Octavia Coleman

So many women have made the decision to go natural, via the "big chop" or "grew out the chemicals", yet they struggle to find a stylist that truly understands the makeup of their hair and add little to helping them maintain their natural locks.

To shed light on this subject, I sat down with Octavia Coleman natural hairstylist and owner of Ice Creme Beauty.  While we were able to discuss the natural hair "trend" and products, I also had the chance to get to know Mrs. Octavia on a more personal level. I hope you enjoy this interview as much as I did. 

What's YOUR Color!!!

Hair Color, a nice change to a boring head of hair, right? See a color you want, pick it up, or have it done at your local salon right? Wrong! There are a lot of factors that go into getting the best, but more importantly the RIGHT color to accentuate your hair.

First of all, when choosing hair color, it's very important that you know what category that you fall into. These categories are defined as Warm or Cool. Why is this so important, you may ask? Because just as when you are picking a foundation, you don't want the color clashing with your skin tone. However, your skin tone is not the only factor to choosing the perfect hair color. Your eye color, your natural, and previous artificial color play a pivotal role as well.

First Lady Michelle Obama

 From 2008 to the present First Lady Obama has blossomed to say the least!  Always an intelligent, well kept woman, she just needed the touch of a "style fairy" to give her look some LIGHT!!!!!!  We have watched her threads go from bottom to top, Sam & Libby to Reed Krakoff, Faded Glory to THOM BROWNE....she KNOW SHE BADD!

Style does not take away from the intelligent, wise, happy hearted woman she is, but it sure will enhance the outter...allowing it to match the inner! #CLASSY #SASSY #CHIC

She's THE 1st African American First Lady of the United States & she continues to SHINE Bright....just like ....A DIAMOND!
