Black History Beauty Brand : Ginger + Liz Colour Collection™ with Ginger Johnson & Liz Pickett

Are you looking for nail fashion that fits your vegan needs?  Ginger + Liz Colour Collection™ is the brainchild of Ginger Johnson and Liz Pickett, they created the collection in 2009.  The line is heavily influenced by arts, travel, entertainment and especially the Classic Chic, Modern Luxe, Bohemian Hipster, and Rock Glam fashion driven lifestyles.  They have a polish to fit all fashion styles, vibrants, metallics and nudes.  This polish comes with a supreme quality 398 strand flat brush and double ball bearing mixer for smooth application.  It is also fast drying, long lasting, chip-resistant and highly pigmented.  Johnson & Pickett's desire for creating vegan polishes come from adverse reactions they had as teens to toxic chemicals, in some well-known beauty brands.  These experiences made it important for them to produce nail lacquers free from harsh chemicals such as toluene, formaldehyde and DBP.  Ginger + Liz nail lacquers prove to be a brand that is health conscious without sacrificing style; a line that will have both classic and on trend shades along with a rich, long lasting, non toxic formula. Ginger + Liz...the necessary accessory!™  Ginger + Liz Colour Collection™ can be purchased via their website or at Urban Outfitters.

Black History Beauty Brand : Big Girl Cosmetics & Kiley Russell

Have you heard of Big Girl Cosmetics?  Well if you haven't, then let me tell you a little bit about this brand.  Big Girl Cosmetics was founded by Kiley Russell.  She had the fortune of attending a taping of the Oprah Winfrey Show on the day she was giving away cars.  She took the car, sold it and used the money to launch her business.  She first began by selling body butters and soaps with recipes she learned from her grandmother Louise, and later moved on to cosmetics.  Big Girl Cosmetics can even be found at the Macy's on State Street in Downtown Chicago.  The product line covers all the major areas you need to keep your look fabulous.  She has products for the body, face, eyes and lips.  Later she went on to launch Big Girl Makeup Bar & Spa, located in Hyde Park, Illinois.   At this location you can have all your spa needs handled, along with getting makeup tips and hosting a party for the little Princess in your life.  We want to congratulate Big Girl Cosmetics on using her resources to make her dreams come true!

SheaMoisture is a hair and skin care line.

Happy Birthday Dr. King

January 15, 1929 - April 4, 1968

"Rarely do we find men who willingly engage in hard, solid thinking. There is an almost universal quest for easy answers and half-baked solutions. Nothing pains some people more than having to think." 

"We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope."

~Martin Luther King Jr.

Today we wish Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. a Happy Birthday.  His quotes are many years old, but still contain centuries of wisdom.  We have to accept the obstacles that come our way, but we don't have to stop trying to have better opportunities in the future.

Happy Birthday!

Jesus is the Reason

Merry Christmas

On the behalf of B.M.M.O.
