I try not to buy more than what I need, but damn, am I a sucker for shiny things. While late-night scrolling through Instagram the other night, I stopped dead in my tracks to ogle a video of an oval-shaped gold ring I figured I'd never buy, but then something unexpected happened: the person wearing it poured nail polish into […] "Manicures and pedicures, I'm always tip-top/ When they say I'm not hot, all these lies need to stop." When the confidence-boosting hit "Icy Grl" dropped in 2017, I couldn't attend a party without hearing those lines over Khia's "My Neck, My Back" beat, shouting them alongside the other Black women in the room. You couldn't escape the bad bitch vibes […] AmfAR has bottled up its gala in fragrance form. Unable to hold its famous, annual gathering in person, amfAR has released two fragrances to raise money for AIDS research and its COVID-19 fund, as well as drum up excitement for its virtual gala on March 4. The foundation has been working on fragrances for “the last several years,” chief executive […] There’s more than meets the eye with the season’s upcoming crop of models. As the industry moves away from un-inclusive approaches to casting, the new season of shows has made room for multifaceted talents. Society Management’s Benzo Perryman, for example, doubles as a photographer; and Wilhelmina Models’ Ana Jorge recently put presentations for Off-White and Valentino Couture under her belt. […] Fearless Fund — the first venture capital fund built by women of color for women of color — has teamed with Steve Madden for a program meant to provide more resources and education for women of color entrepreneurs.

Oral sex is a type of sexual contact between a person’s mouth and their partner’s vagina, penis, or rectum. Research studies show that approximately half of 15 to 19-year-old adolescents in the United States have ever had oral sex. While you cannot get pregnant from oral sex, you can still get a sexually transmitted infection (STI). […] Bésame Cosmetics has become a favorite of Disney fanatics because the brand executes truly lovely collaborations that lean heavily on the vintage vibes that have always been one of its strong suits. Among the collections that have drawn the adulation of makeup lovers are Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and Mickey Mouse, and now, Bésame is bringing us a line inspired […] PARIS — L’Oréal has finalized its acquisition of Takami Co., which develops and markets products licensed by the Japanese skin care brand Takami. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Takami — known especially for its iconic product, the Skin Peel, also sometimes referred to as the “Little Blue Bottle” — is owned by Dr. Hiroshi Takami, who also […] Thanks for your question.
