Source: pinkypills/Fuse / Getty When it comes to treating African American skin , there are not too many beauty treatments that can give our skin the TLC that it needs. Whether you’re working with normal, oily, combination, dry or sensitive skin, finding the right products and tips for application is the key for healthy, radiant skin. And with K-Beauty, there are some tips that will do our skin justice. If you’re unfamiliar with K-Beauty aka Korean beauty, the trend has been a hot topic within the beauty world. Loved by many for its ability to treat a wide array of skincare issues such as scars, wrinkles, acne, dryness and many more. While the Korean beauty trend is all about layering and using fresh products, the results are enough for many people to take a second look at their current skin care routine. If you’re in need of a revamped skincare routine or just looking for better ways to take care of your skin, simply put, K-Beauty is where it’s at. Keep reading for 5 Korean beauty tips that will transform your skin. 1.Grab a charcoal sheet mask. While most people believe that charcoal is reserved for oily skin types, using the ingredient in your face masks regimen can upgrade your skin. See, charcoal detoxes and exfoliates your skin–the perfect remedy for stressed skin. I like to use the Palmers Coconut Charcoal Maks ($3.99, Palmers.com ). 2. Apply a facial essence. If you ask modern Korean women, all women should have a skin care essnece in their beauty routine. This product deeply hydrates the skin and preps your skin to receive additional skincare products like facial moisturizer for the maximum level of hydration. Personally, I believe nothing beats Tatcha The Essence Plumping Skin Softener ($95.00, Tatcha.com ). Although its a little bit on the pricey side, when it comes to your skin you deserve the best, even if you have to spend a little extra. 3. Give your face a steam massage. Massaging naturally increases circulation to give your skin a natural and radiant tone. The steam helps your skin further remove impurities to give your skin a deep clean with ease. Feel free to take your massage to the next level with an oil cleanser for extra hydration. 4. Double cleanse your skin. One cleansing session is simply not enough to remove all the dirt and grime from your skin. Start with an oil-based cleanser to remove makeup, sunscreen and other impurities like the Pure Tropix Purifying Honey Oil Cleanser ($24.99, Puretropix.com ). This gentle cleanser is made with all natural ingredients to gently remove impurities while nourishing the skin for a fresh feel. Follow up with a foaming cleanser to give your pores a deep clean. I’m a huge fan of the Ole Henriksen The Clean Truth Foaming Cleanser ($30.00, Sephora.com ). perfect for all skin types, this antioxidant face wash helps to reveal smooth and supple skin. 5. Apply sunscreen. One of the easiest ways to ruin your skin is failure to wear sunscreen everyday. The sun’s UV rays can speed up signs if aging and lead to skin cancer. The FDA recommends using a broad spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15 for proper protection. I play no games when it comes to my skin so I use the Cetaphil Daily Moisturizer SPF 50 ($17.05, Amazon.com ). You can never be too safe!

Want Exclusives First? Click Here To Sign Up For Our Newsletter! Romeo, born Jerome Jones, was distinguished from the rest of his group members because he wore a signature eye patch. For years, the story was that Romeo wore the patch after he and Brandy got into a fight with one another. But during a recent sit down with Nick Cannon, Jones told the real story. Nick Cannon: Obviously everybody knows you was always rocking the eye patch. There was the rumor that Brandy did that is that true? Jerome Jones: Yeah that’s a true story. Nick : Really? Jerome : Yeah, her and Half Pint had got into it. She had a book in her hand, just tossed it back, not thinking anyone or I was that close. Cut my retina, detached it. And the lens to the eye had fell out and Brandon Adams caught it. He was there with us. So, he’s standing there holding my lens. He’s not knowing what’s going on. Marc come in and we were trying to hide it. Marques : I was like ‘What’s going on?’ Rome is on the bed. I’m like what’s going on? Rome is like, ‘Nothing. Nothing.’ Brandy’s like, ‘He don’t want to get me in trouble. Nothing, nothing.’ I immediately went and got Chris. ‘Something happened to Rome.’ Told Chris is was an accident and we took Rome to the hospital. Jones addressed his eye condition in a song from his solo career, “Look Down On Me” from his album Food For Thought. He wrote, “I remember when Brandy Norwood hit me in my eye. I had a detached retina (and) my lens came out, I had to have three eye surgeries. And she thought we’d never be cool again. But I put that on my life, I love her to death. If she hear me talking, I know she can hear the honesty in my voice and my sincerity.” Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news.

You’ll paint the polish mixture onto your nails and let it dry–that’s your jelly manicure base– then you apply the clear top coat on its won, followed by a matte top coat. The two top coats layered over the jelly base diffuses the color, picks up the white undertones, and makes the finish extra frosty.” While this nail trend seems to be perfect for those who like to experiment with color, we have to admit that the color is really pretty to rock.

If you've been keeping up with Mackenzie McKee, then you know her marriage hasn't been going well lately. It's been going so badly, in fact, that she's getting a divorce. Mackenzie has said a lot about how everything's been going, her reasoning behind the split, all sorts of things. But thanks to these new photos she just shared, we're starting to wonder if the split is even happening at all anymore … 1. So Much History Mackenzie and Josh have been together for a long time — they welcomed their first child in September of 2011 when they were both very young. 2. Memories They got married in 2013, had their second child in 2014, and their third in 2016. 3. What’s Been Happening? While Mackenzie is on Teen Mom OG now, she wasn’t on TV at all for most of all that — she had her 16 and Pregnant episode, the one season of Teen Mom 3, and then not much at all until MTV picked her back up recently. 4. Hmm So while we know oodles and oodles of information about all the other Teen Mom couples, we only know bits and pieces about the McKee marriage. 5. Real Talk And what we have heard over the years … well, it’s not great. 6. Ouch Remember when Mackenzie had postpartum depression after giving birth to her last child? She said then that she was suicidal, and that Josh had told her “Go kill yourself, but don’t do it in front of me and the kids.” View Slideshow

Last week, a Philadelphia jury awarded $8 billion in punitive damages against J&J after their drug was linked to the abnormal growth of female breast tissue in boys.
Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty Jamie Long Responds To Ex-Wife’s Claims He’s Manipulating Cyntoia Brown Cyntoia Brown’s husband has been catching slack for “using her” after his ex-wife, Pamela Long of the singing group Total, called him a ‘diabolical manipulator’. Now the Christian is clapping back at her claims and denying their marriage was ever REAL. In an interview with The Breakfast Club , Long said: “I think it was very selfish. I don’t know if she’s trying to reinvent her career, I don’t know what she’s trying to do. I think it was very selfish of her to do that. We’re serious about what we’re doing, we’re serious about the message. You know I’ve been divorced from Pam almost four, five years man. I didn’t even see her that much when we were married. I just feel like it was selfish of her to come out and do something like that, because you discredit what my wife is trying to do, trying to attach your name to something like this.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by J.LONG (@j.longjfam) on Sep 19, 2019 at 5:06pm PDT Jamie even addressed Pam’s claim that he was using Brown for fame . He responds, calling his ex-marriage counterfeit and his union with Cyntoia “real”. “What do I have for sale? I no longer participate in the music industry. That’s not my thing. I gave that up. I tend to my home, I tend to my wife, I tend to my business. We are very financially stable. I’ve heard something about… because my wife has a book deal… with our without a book deal my wife is gonna be straight, cause we straight.” “I was married before. And I married the wrong woman. I had the right intentions but I married the wrong woman, and I wasn’t doing that no more. Sometimes the counterfeit comes before the real thing. And we fall for the counterfeit sometimes. This time I know I got it right. This is my best friend.” Hit play at the 35-minute mark to hear Jamie address his ex’s public remarks about him.
