Supermodel Beauty Tips for Dark Skin

Supermodels Alek Wek and Chanel Iman share their must-have beauty products for black skin.

Black Beauty Alek is a low-maintenance beauty but she can’t live without her Super Supreme Butter from Sephora, which you can find at www.sephora.com

Model Chanel Iman refuses to go out looking dry or ashy, so she uses Rosebud Salve from Sephora on her lips and cuticles! Visit www.sephora.com

Tyra,
I have a 4yr. daughter and we end watching your show America's Next TopModel. She loves this show . She always tells me she is going to be the next topmodel! This is scary because you and I know what is out there. Now I know I probaly sound like every other parent when i say there is a chance, but there is a chane for everyone. Is there a way you can help me make her feel like a model without actually getting into the business. My personal opinion is she is far to young for this. Please email me to give me some info on this.

Hi! Tyra i love watching you shows. Especially the one when you talked about your childhood. and how you felt ugly and no one likes you. Thats how i feel. i tried out to be a model at discover mills mall. I won but i thought i wasnt good enough. I need help cause i think i am ugly and i feel ugly. I dont have a pretty smile. This is what puts me down.

Hello, i enjoy watching your show and i try not to miss a day.It is nice to here that there are plus size models out there,but what about the females that want to become models but are told that "you are to short"? I do not think it is fare. There are so many girls out there that are short but has always dreamed of modeling. Are they suppose to just forget about there dreams? But anyway, love your show. Keep up the good work.

Hi tyra,
My name is Deanna and I live in Florida. I watch your show all the time and you are my role model. I want to one day to become a model and a midwife. I don't have dark skin but I think it is so beautiful. My complexion is like medum. I don't find one thing wrong with dark skin and I think models with dak skin are beautiful. I also think there sholud be more plus size models too. I am not plus-size,matter of fact people call me stick,but I still think that everyone is beautiful no matter what color,age, or size, and people need to wake up and realize it.

Hi Tyra I watch your show very often in the caribbean, Trinidad & Tobago that is.My cousin have a problem with her skin. Since we were small she got a lot of marks on her skin. Her parents have tried all kinds of things to get rid of them, but they don't seem to be going away. I was wondering if you will help her get rid of them. Due to these marks she cannot wear shorts to go out.My cousin is am 23years and she needs the help. So pleasa Tyra help us.

Hi tyra I just want to say that I really think you are a great roll modle for black women in the world and for kids like me and when I grow up I want to be just like you.

Hi tyra I just want to say that I very think you are a great roll modle for black women in the world and for kids like me and when I grow up I want to be just like you.

tyra first i would like to say that i love ur show n how u r so real with everything. im a dark skined youg lady that has to go through the boys that say that dark skined gurls arent that cute, but i kno that the balcker the berry the sweeter the juice. even tho im young i still have sweet jus!!! ya digg!!( thats sum 10 us youngins use when we talk n, so if u want 2 use it its ok it me) anywho. eventually every they jus stopped i guess they realized how stupid it was. even if they didnt i wouldnt care cause i kno that im beautiful in every way n more but, i do have a boyfriend that thinks the same thing and loves dark skined gurls. i love u tyra even tho we dnt kno each otha like that.

Tyra,
Sorry, but I'm not buying the whole supermodel blackout thing. Of course you are going to see more caucasian women on the runway because the caucasian population out numbers black and when you narrow it down even futher, there are even fewer black women in the modeling industry. It's not about race,but population percentages.

Hi Tyra!!

Today's show made me cry...watching today's show made me realize that beauty its not just looks...but everything else.....i love Alek! She has a good spirit...and i wish her and you the best!

-LOVE ALWAYS
ANGIELICIOUS!!!

hi tyra

i think by choosing eva to be america's next top model was a great choice

Hello Tyra how are you doing today? I have to agree with you about the disappearing of African American Models and also T.V. Show Actors/Actress.

That is why my daughter, Takyezia will be attending the International Modeling and Acting Association Convention in L.A. January 2008. At this Convention she will have the chance to get a Modeling or Acting contract. Over 300 directors, producers, casting directors, casting agents, etc. will be at the Convention. My daughter, Takyezia is the African American child going under the age of 17yrs old out of 30 people from the state of Minnesota. (for more info visit www.imta.com)

Takyezia is a dark skin female who is very sassy when it comes to Modeling and very eye catching when it comes to Acting. For those of you who wants to see my daughter, visit www.caryninternational.com (her picture will be posted by next month) Go to Model Gallery, then view IMTA Contestants.

I'm so proud of Takyezia because she looks up to you Tyra as her role model. Thank you for inspiring my daughter to achieve her dream.

Tyra I just want to say that you are doing a megnificent job on your show ,to me your show is better than Oprahs hands down, for one your show is not just about having famous people on your show, it's about keeping it real and letting people understand and feel how things are on the other foot. You take time out to show the world how it is in other peoples world, you step in their shoes all the time, just to know how some else feels, think, see other point of views befor judging someone and that's real as you can get, all the years ive been watching Oprah, she has never step in someone elses shoes, she always ask her guess how does that feel or what do you think, well if she took the time like you to expand her show a little more she would know and understand other peoples ordeals, and the street life experiences that we as nonfamous people and others go through. and I love you for that Tyra, and i love your show Top Models, Tyra I read some of the other comments and I just want to say to you that, you can please some people some times but you cant please all the people all the time impossible Tyra, so you keep your head up and do what you do best, Tyra your show will become the number one talk show for day time T.V just have pateince girlfriend it's coming!! love ya kira and check out my site at www.myspace.com/suni74 I work at Tranzitions Hair Salon in Detroit Mich.on 8mile. rd. Tyra you have a bless day.

hi tyra..i'm,17, from singapore..i've been enjoying your show.it inspire me so much...especially the one about 'so what!'..it buids my self esteem & gives me to think positive about myself..i hope that you will do one of your show in singapore for the asian people..take care..

Hey Tyra I must say you always seem to amaze people with your show and thats what keeps me glued to the screen when your show starts.Im very unfortunate as im from South Africa because i can't be an audience in your show but that does not stop me from watching.I would love to thank you for the supermodel tips for dark skin although im not a supermodel but iv also got dark skin.Well from me Kwena here in the SA i would like to say gal keep up the hard work you might not notice but you are realy making a differnce in peoples lives.We love you Tyra

hey tyra I'm 16 and from singapore although they show your shows a little late here-(about 4 to 6 shows late) I can say I absolutely love the way you always treat everyone as a human being-no matter skin size and colour.I'm dark but racism is not really that prominent here as my country is multi-racial. i hope you can reach out to asians after conquering the white-black issue.
p.s.i think your shows are a little too sexist.no offense there.

HI TYRA MY NAME IS BRITTANY AND I AM 16 YEARS OLD. IM A DARK SKINNED PERSON AND IT HELPS TO KNOW THAT IM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WHO THINKS BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL...
