Full, Thick Brows - Super skinny brows are “out” and fuller ones are the rage. So ladies put down the tweezer and let your brows grow in. Just make sure you keep them looking groomed, not wild and bushy.
Smoky Eye - Smoky grey eyeshadow looks so right for fall…pair it with pale pink lips and softly colored cheeks for maximum impact.

DARK LIPS – Matte dark lips paired with lots of liner and smoky shadow will give you an updated 40’s classic look.

PURPLE SMOKY EYES -Purple was one of the hottest hues on the runway and it’s just as fabulous on the face. And the great thing about the color purple is that it makes any eye color pop. So take a hint from Thandie Newton and get smokin’ in purple shadow.
On the island of the Dominican Republic, tourists flock to pristine beaches unaware that a few miles away thousands of dispossessed Haitians have toiled under armed-guard on plantations harvesting sugarcane, much of which ends up in U.S. kitchens. They work grueling hours and frequently lack decent housing, clean water, electricity, education or healthcare.
“It’s the easiest thing to place blame on.” T.I. exclaimed while falling back into his chair onstage. “Its like hip-hop is taking the blame for all of America’s problems,” Nelly added to his argument. This is what you would have heard if you were in the audience during the taping of BET’s three – part series, “Hip-Hop vs. America”.
The series aired on BET September 25th – 26th with the final part of the series made available online. I checked out all three and some things I agreed with, while others I was not completely sold. However, it was a debate and debates often go that way.
The panelists ranged from Mike Jones to Master P and Chuck D to Cornell West. Each of the individuals on the panel made valid points here and there, but the overall theme of the debate seemed to have been whether or not hip-hop should be blamed for America’s ills. Should it?
It’s hard for me to believe that people actually think that 50 Cent albums and replays of Nelly’s infamous “Tip Drill” video are the reason prisons are overcrowded with black men. Violence in our inner-cities is not out of control because Pimp C and Bun B rap about the dope game in the south. Be serious. When did the parenting of today’s generation get so weak that it allows society to blame a genre of music for America’s short comings?
