For those who aspire to be a Black model, makeovers are very important. It is essential in a black makeover that the products you use on yourself are the right ones or else, you stand to have many issues with the health of your skin and hair. Considering the nature of black hair, many times it is felt that you need to use grease, which contains mineral oil or petroleum to moisturise your scalp. These, in fact, end up clogging your pores and retard the growth of your hair.

What is recommended is to use products that have natural oils like jojoba and coconut oil. Shea butter and pomegranate seed oil can work wonders for your hair too. Using them in liquid form improves your hair’s sheen as well as provides a natural sunscreen for your hair.

When it comes to skin care products, an aspiring black model should stay away from sodium methyl paraben or any other form of paraben. Also, avoid chemical bleaching products and those, which are petroleum based. These products can cause hyper-pigmentation and leave patches of dull skin.

What will work really well on black skin is jojoba, natural vitamin E, Shea butter, products with functional keratin. These work as antioxidants as well as natural moisturizers for your skin. Using the right kind of products on black skin and hair is essential to a successful black makeover. It is only then that you can move on to your dream of making it big as a black model.
