Chalk another one up for the school of rapper's children, although describing Omar Epps as a rapper is probably unfair to his legacy; he's also an accomplished record producer and actor. Watching your daughter go to prom is a tough time for a father; it's a visual reminder that your baby girl is all grown up and getting ready to make her own way in the world. When the time came for his daughter Aiyanna to have her big night, Epps thought the best thing to do would be to get involved in it himself.
Here he is helping her to get her choker on in a sweet, candid photo, and Aiyanna looks really happy to have her dad's help. She's gone for a classic little black dress - it's almost impossible to go wrong with them - and paired with with dark lipstick and a winning smile.
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.
