2017 was definitely a great year for beauty and style. From celebrity launches we couldn’t wait for to natural hair tutorials we just had to try we had some of the beauty tips we’ll take well into 2018 and beyond. Here are some of our favorites and why we just couldn’t get enough this year.

If there is one thing that we can thank 2017 for, it was the year that all of our favorite black women came through with the beauty and fashion that we’ve been searching for. From Rihanna’s iconic Fenty Beauty launch, to Tracee Ellis Ross’ clothing line, to Gabrielle Union’s hair products, we were more than ready to spend our coins on everything black women brought to the table. We’ve talked about beauty (thanks Riri) for the fall and winter but let’s not forget about our hair. And with Gabrielle Union’s Flawless line, we know just the products you need to keep your curls and coils poppin during the coldest months of the year.

Body, Get Fit, Look Good, Strong Mind

This time of year most of us are either looking back on our goals for the year or scrapping them and starting over. And if we’re talking about fitness goals, most likely we’re in the latter. With all the good food, parties, gatherings, and cocktails on the menu for the next couple weeks, of course the last thing on our mind is the gym. But then Tia Mowry came through with her cute baby bump and gym clothes to remind us that we need to hop on #teamnoexcuses and get our daily dose of exercise in, no matter what. ??

For some of us, when we deal with skin issues, all it takes is a quick change in our skincare routine or swapping a few foods in our diet to get back on track. But for others, and even for those same people on occasion, the skin issues we come in contact with require a little more attention than we can handle. That’s when it’s time to call a dermatologist. For black women, even though we may encounter skin concerns that could apply to anyone, there are a few that are specific to melanated skin. It’s because of this, that many women opt to choose to find a dermatologist that understands our unique skin needs. If you’re looking for black dermatologists to help you tackle your...

So often, the answers to our most pressing questions, the information we need to truly thrive, or the ideas that we’ve been trying to articulate on a certain topic can found within the pages of a book.

And we don’t mean books packed with medical terminology or statistics that we can’t quite understand. We mean books that help us understand what’s going on with our bodies, health, and the things we do can to be better in a way that we can understand. Whether you’re a book loving health enthusiast or...
