Diana Rivers; Black Does Crack – Skin Care Products for Women of Color…

Like Love Haha Wow Sad Angry

(ThyBlackMan.com) As women of color, we are all guilty of believing at one point or another that “Black don’t crack!” We see countless images of women with Mocha skin that are flawless as they age in comparison to our European counterparts. However, you should know that anyone with SKIN has the potential to age HORRIBLY. It depends on how you treat your body from the inside out.

Although Mocha skin has a natural SPF of 15, we still need to protect our skin against UVA/UVB rays which can lead to skin cancer—-YES Mocha folk CAN get skin cancer, just in case you were wondering. Check out some of these products to help you preserve your sexy as you age!

Dr. Susan Taylor’s Rx for Brown Skin Moisturizing Sunscreen

Dr. Susan Taylor has over 20 years experience in treating ethnic skin, so it’s safe to say that this Mocha Professional is a Black skin guru! She has several other products that she has created to keep Mocha skin looking it’s best.

Read on to see some other great products to protect your skin from the sun……

Yes to Carrots! Hydrating Body Lotion

Yes to Carrots is a great brand! I have used their shampoo and conditioner and LOVE their products so I am sure this lotion will be great as well. I haven’t tried this product, but it was recommended by some other MochaBelles so I will definitely check it out!

Peter Thomas Roth Mineral SPF

In addition to protecting your body, you have to protect the skin on your face, ears and neck and what better way to do that than with a mineral powder. I have heard mixed reviews about this product, so prior to buying it, I would suggest you try it out at a local Sephora. Some MochaBelles have sensitive skin and can’t wear mineral makeup, so try this product out prior to buying.

The sun does not discriminate, it does not see if you are a fairer tone or of a darker tone. Diseases like skin cancer, sunburn and other sun or heat related conditions can be caught by anyone exposed to too much sun. It becomes more important for darker skin toned people to wear sunscreen for protection against the sun as darker tones have a higher risk of developing Melanoma. So it is advised to be always protected against harmful UVA/UVB rays, no matter your skin tone . I’ve used EXTRASHADE sunscreen and love it’s lightweight, moisturizing and doesn’t leave white streaks on my skin! I LOVE IT!

Wake up author. WE ARE NOT BLACK. You should find and read my article on this site entitled I Don’t Know Any Black People. Black is the color of your car tires. Now compare that to your hand. We need to stop letting ourselves be defined by someone else and by a color that we are NOT. That is simply brainwashing.
