After struggling fiercely in college to stay off the streets (I’m not exactly Mrs. Bill Gates) I’ve come to discover that tons of your everyday cheapo toiletries have tons of additional uses. Next to  Rachel Zoe re-runs and chocolate chip cookies, the dollar aisle that’s located in every drug store should be every college girl’s best friend. Who needs all of that expensive Sephora stuff when you have the budget of a homeless man paired with the crafty mind of a student]?

Beauty products are super expensive; trust me, I know. Even as a self-proclaimed beauty addict, sometimes it kills me to spend money on overpriced creams, treatments and all that other stuff beauty companies tell us we need.

The Japanese (ever the trendsetters) have begun to release black products like there’s no tomorrow. Summer may be the time for white, but black is finally getting its due. For instance? Japanese airliner StarFlyer is outfitting its aircrafts with black leather seats. Some may call it morbid…I call it classy.

Want to talk revolution? How about black toilet paper? It’s a big hit in Europe (what isn’t?) but damn if it isn’t, at the very least, a lovely novelty. Even if you aren’t feeling the dark hue…try out a different color. Okay, so maybe you’re concerned about the TP. I understand. How do you feel about black cotton swabs? Black Nail Polish? Black toothbrushes? Black toothpaste? It never ends! Read More »
