Katonya Breaux graces Hello Beauty to talk all sun protection, especially for melanin-rich skin. She is the mother to musician Frank Ocean, a meditator, who is wellness-focused, and the founder of Unsun Cosmetics.Katonya grew up with the belief that black people did not need sun protection. She learned from a dermatologist that the moles that she would see from the older women from her family were not genetic, but the direct result of sun damage. Shocked by this, she started her journey in searching for a safe sunblock that did not leave a white cast on her skin. Since the market was lacking sunscreens that were inclusive with her skin tone, and one that was free of chemical actives, Katonya created Unsun Cosmetics. Unsun Cosmetics is a natural skincare brand focusing in sun protection and beauty products for all skin shades and tones. It is clean and safe for the user and the environment. in this episode, she clarifies that a higher SPF number does not mean a great higher amount of protection. The gap between an SPF 30 and SPF 50 are so small that using an SPF 30 is perfectly okay. To illustrate, SPF 30 gives 97% protection and SPF 50 gives 98% protection.Trivia: Frank Ocean was the one who came up with the name "Unsun".FOLLOW UNSUN COSMETICSUnsun Cosmetic's InstagramUnsun Cosmetic's FacebookFOLLOW HELLO BEAUTYHello Beauty's InstagramHello Beauty's FacebookHello Beauty's YouTubeFOLLOW JOYCE PLATONJoyce Platon's Instagram

Hi everyone. I hope you're keeping safe, healthy, and hanging in there. Sending love your way and my thoughts are with you.-----I thought this "trend" was going to die down soon but we are still seeing recent posts about people doing The Fox Eye Trend on their social media. What is the Fox Eye Trend? Why is it racist? Marianne Mychaskiw discusses why The Fox Eye Trend is trash. Even after receiving negative attention from Asians, this trend is still circulating in social media. As Asians, specifically Pacific Islanders, it just triggered plenty of memories of bullies pulling their eyelids at us. Marianne is a beauty editor, freelance journalist, and brand copywriter for both digital and print where she covers topics about beauty, wellness, entertainment, lifestyle, and sex.In this episode, we define the difference between appropriation vs. appreciation, why Asian features are not a trend, and what solutions we can arrive at to help raise awareness about these racial issues. Our goal is to always come from a place of love and we strive to do our best to stay informed, do our research, keep learning, and continue the discussion.  FOLLOW MARIANNE MYCHASKIWMarianne's InstagramFOLLOW HELLO BEAUTYHello Beauty's InstagramHello Beauty's FacebookHello Beauty's YouTubeFOLLOW JOYCE PLATONJoyce Platon's Instagram
