Hello ladies, thank you for your great questions. It appears that skin is a hot button among us Black women.  What I've done is created a SistaCircle (a small group within SistaStrong) to discuss issues around skin. I've titled it SkinTopics! Check it out here http://sistastrong.org/group/skintopics  Join this group and we can explore some of your concerns. While we dont have the staff to answer specific questions all the time, this will give us a forum to come together and offer info to each other in this area. I'll look for some articles to get us started. Please as you find info, do share it in this group as it will be as successful as the members within it. Thanks again Venita and Cherzron for the questions, have a blessed day.

My daughter is a fast developing 11 year old. With that she also is developing bad skin. Trying to keep chocolate and chips away from an 11 year old is tough. I am expressing to her that what goes in your body must come out, but she is still having problems with breakouts and big pimples. Is there a product out there that is safe? She is still young in age, and her body is growing up faster than she is years! HELP

How do black women prepare for cooler weather? We discover new ways to look good in it! With summer behind us, fall is an invitation to enhance our natural beauty. Discover how you can celebrate cooler weather with mesmerizing eyes, radiant skin and fabulous hair! Change things up a bit with these five fall products no sista should be without.

Even Out Your Complexion

Whether your shade is warm caramel, sheer espresso or golden honey, there is a concealer made especially for you! The CoverGirl® Queen Collection Natural Hue Concealer can help even out your complexion. It glides on smoothly to help conceal dark circles and skin imperfections. Use before makeup application to create a flawless finish for a big date or for a night out with the girls. Visit CoverGirl.com to find out which shade flatters your complexion.

Try a New Look for Fall

Create a new fall 'do! Find a style at Get The Look from Pantene®. Determine your hair's length and structure and follow the step-by-step guide that walks you through it. It's that easy!

Tighten and Firm

Want firmer, more radiant skin in just five days? Olay® Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Serum can help! This fast-absorbing, non-greasy formula penetrates the skin's surface to provide instant hydration. It's designed to soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while improving skin's texture. As a result, skin can look brighter and feel significantly firmer in just five days.

Create a Smoky Eye

Fashion experts predict that eccentric color combinations will be one of the season's hottest new looks. We made CoverGirl Smoky ShadowBlast one of our five fall products because it works in two steps. The contoured end is rounded for easy application on your eyelid. The other end gives you more control to create a defined crease and an attention-getting lash line. Try a few of the ShadowBlast spotlight colors — Purple Plum, Silver Sky or Onyx Smoke — to create the ultimate smoky-eye effect.

Try Lasting Lip Color

When the season changes, so do your lips! You want a lip color that can last as long as the demands of your day and night. CoverGirl Outlast® All-Day Lipcolor can last up to 16 hours. To match your fall wardrobe, try Outlast All-Day Lipcolor in shades of coral and red, burgundy and wine, brown and spice, and neutral and nude.
