Solange Carol’s Daughter’s Spokesbeauty Event Makeup
When Solange was asked by MTV Style the cheapest thing she copped recently, Solange confessed, “I don’t know if this would be considered cheap, but this suit, which everyone keeps asking me if it’s some high-end designer, is a $150 suit from Mango. It’s amazing. It’s not the cheapest thing, but it’s definitely reasonable!” Yes, it’s very reasonable that Solange, as the spokesbeauty that she is, would arrive at the Carol’s Daughter’s Spokesbeauty and Monoi Repairing Collection Launch looking canary cool. With a luscious crown of springy curls, she rounded out her look with t-strap sandals, a plunging necklace and orange nails. Celebrity makeup artist Jackie Gomez was so kind to send over the beauty breakdown for Solange.…

Keri Hilson 2011 Billboard Awards Makeup
I’m not sure if I can adequately describe my adoration of Keri Hilson’s makeup look at this year’s Billboard Music Awards but I’ll try. I love how Hilson’s winged, green and gold eyes complemented her chartreuse, sheer bell sleeved Rachel Roy mini dress (paired with a turquoise belt) and nude glitter Christian Louboutin Balota Sandals.

Nia Long Makeup on The View
Did you enjoy Nia Long makeup on The View recently? I’ve got the exclusive details! As you might know, I consider Nia Long as one of my girl crushes. Last month, I posted her entire skin care regimen but never had the pleasure of posting what products were used to create one of her beauty looks. Well, if you caught Long on “The View” this past Tuesday, you might have noticed that she was glowing more than usual. Celebrity makeup artist Saisha Beecham said that she knew that Nia “would be wearing a coral Rachel Roy [Fold-Neck] Dress, so I wanted to give her a subtle peachy/coral look.” You can follow Beecham on Twitter…

Urban Beauty Legend: Gabrielle’s Skin Care Line
I was initially confused when I read Gabrielle Union was launching a new skin care line for women of color on Twitter. Union has been a Neutrogena spokesperson since 2004. Among the many commercials she’s done for Neutrogena, her Visibly Even commercial stands out because I thought it was specifically geared toward women of color. Just now, I logged on the website and noticed that the only product available for the Visibly Even line is the Daily Moisturizer SPF 30. Is the Visibly Even line being phased out to make room for this new collection exclusively for women of color? This might be the case! I also checked out the…
