Beyoncé Knowles isn't the only member of Destiny's Child who can spend money like there's no tomorrow. Kelly Rowland did very well for herself both in the band and in her solo career after it was over, so she can afford to splash out on eye-watering purchases. She once paid $5,200 for a bathtub, but it wasn't for her. It was actually a baby gift for Beyoncé!
What to buy for the baby who has everything? Well, what else but her own personalized baby-sized bathtub, decked out in pink Swarovski crystals so she feels like a princess every time she goes for a bath. Beyoncé clearly appreciated the gift - she and Rowland are still so close that Blue Ivy apparently refers to her mom's former bandmate as 'Auntie Kelly.' With the bathtub and the Barbie, we can't help but wonder what other diamond-studded accessories are inside the Carter household.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
