Q&A: What is the best skin care product that you have found?

Question by : What is the best skin care product that you have found?
A friend and I are looking into a bunch of different products to review them on a website. It’s got make up tips and skin care tips. The problem is we don’t know many of today’s products. We tried to Google them but that didn’t really tell us what ones were used by the everyday person most.

So if you could let us know what you use, how long you’ve been using it, how you’ve liked it, and where we can find more information on the product that would be super helpful.

Thanks a ton!

Question by Got2getby: What is a good skin care regimen for high amounts of sun exposure?
I teach tennis six hours a day everyday except Sunday. I apply sunscreen before I go out (spf 30 or 50) and I wear a hat or visor. I am still getting sunburned on my neck and shoulders and my skin feels like it is not taking all of this sun so well.

Question by : What type of makeup brushes are good for dry skin?
I find that when i use certain makeup brushes, it makes my skin dryer?
Like when i use the typical foundation brush, it makes my makeup look kind of cakey and it looks like i have dry spots. So i just use a makeup wedge but i hate having to continuously buy new ones since you have to toss em after every use. Any help? Thanks!

Use real brushes, not synthetic.
Synthetic are fake brissels apposed to real ones. You can tell the difference synthetic looks a tad shiny, and fake. And real brushes are soft and look real.

Standard hair oil (grease, hair food) , Oil Sheen spray, non-tangle hair ties, Relaxer treatments, Petroleum jelly to go along with the relaxer treatments, Detangler sprays, leave-in conditioner for dry hair, made-for-African-American-hair shampoo and conditioner (the ones made by Pantene are great, they come in a bronze colored bottle), and really anything for very dry, brittle, chemically treated hair.

How do you make african american hair grow and how do you care for it?

Question by Raquel H: How do you make african american hair grow and how do you care for it?
I am a fifteen year old african american and I use to have this really pretty long hair. Then I began to wear hair weaves and my hair began to get shorter and unhealthy. If I continue to wear hair weaves but get a sew in instead of glue will that help me get my hair back? Also what is good hair care products for woman of color?

Best answer:

Answer by BabiGurl
Hi, I’m african american as well and I also find it hard to grow out my hair. Now that I started wearing sew ins I have found that my hair has started to grow and has become a lot healthier. I also take a multi vitamin everyday as well as a Biotin supplement. I use a wide variety of products in my hair depending on how my hair is styled at the time…Since you want to regain your hair health I recommend that you start using products made by African Pride such as Hair Fertilizer, Hair Mayonnaise, etc. Their products are really great and have helped my hair tremendously! I hope this helps:)
