The summer has officially waved its last goodbyes, so you’re probably saying “sayonara” to that beautiful tan, too. Not so fast! We know our beauty products are there to pick up the slack when it comes to recreating/and or mimicking looks. And if you want to craft a glow like no other, the buck doesn’t stop.

Bold lips and smoldering eyes are typical fall beauty trends, but “lit from within” skin is the current source of beauty community buzz. Products like liquid bronzer can aid in keeping your sun soaked glow going beyond the spring and summer seasons.

Check out these makeup artist approved hacks for using the “it” product this fall.

1. Pump out as much of your complexion product as you normally would onto your mixing equipment.

2. Add 1-2 pumps of liquid bronzer into your foundation (one pump for sheer coverage, two pumps for a little more warmth; also ideal for deeper skin tones)

3. Mix them together with a Q-tip.

4. Add a little to the back of your hand and move around on the skin. This will warm up the products and give those flecs in the bronzer a little more luminosity before placing directly on the face.

5. Use you fluffy ended brush to apply the mixture all over the face; starting from the middle of the cheek and working your way out and down toward the neck.

Pro-Tip: Be intentional with your intial placement. If you have a particularly pale part of the face, dap the first swipes of product there. Then go back and blend from the cheek out toward that area.

6. Keep working that product around the face until the complexion is bronzed and even.

Pro-Tip: Learn to multitask your products by observing the textures and how they tend to warm the skin. Use your liquid bronzer as a light cheek highlight, by adding a little less foundation into the mixture and using a slightly denser brush to apply directly on the cheekbone, then go back over with your blush.

In the vast cosmos of hip-hop, a new constellation is rising, and it goes by the name of G.T.B Kartel. This group isn’t just another flash in the pan; they are the modern torchbearers of an age-old tradition that celebrates unity, family, and the collective power of collaboration. Their latest single, “Lil Baby,” is not just a track, it’s an anthem, a signal flare announcing the arrival of a duo that is here to redefine the genre’s landscape.

G.T.B Kartel, an acronym for Get To The Bread Kartel, isn’t just a name—it’s a mission statement. In the lineage of great hip-hop collectives like Wu-Tang Clan and Outkast, G.T.B Kartel reminds us that hip-hop is a space where brotherhood thrives and where the sum truly is greater than its parts. In a world that often glorifies solo success, G.T.B Kartel stands out by putting their bond and their music front and center.

Their single “Lil Baby“ is a masterclass in contemporary hip-hop craftsmanship. From the very first whistle, the track grabs your attention and refuses to let go. The production is sharp, each beat and snare meticulously placed to create a rhythm that’s not only addictive but also innovative. The bars are confident, delivered with the kind of swagger that can only come from artists at the peak of their creative powers.

But “Lil Baby” is more than just a catchy tune—it’s the entrance to G.T.B Kartel’s universe, a realm where each note and lyric is carefully considered to create an experience that doesn’t just resonate, but also inspires. It’s a world where the beat doesn’t fade when the song ends; it echoes, lingering in the air like the promise of more to come.

As we look ahead to the future of hip-hop, it’s clear that G.T.B Kartel is not only part of the conversation but also driving it forward. They don’t just fit into the genre; they’re busy carving out their own space within it. “Lil Baby” is your invitation to join them on this journey—a journey where getting to the bread is about more than financial gain; it’s about crafting a legacy that will feed the soul of hip-hop for generations to come.

Emerging artist Goladen Chyld is set to go global with his new album, War Cry.

The new star spreads peace, love, and unity with informative lyrics, crafty rhymes, summoning productions, and vibrant song structure. The debut album encapsulates the illustrious history of Chicago Hip-Hop, which is drenched in the windy city’s historic activism and unity.

The album, its anthems, message, and authenticity are the perfect starting points for newfound fans of the rising star. Tracks like “Righteous Stepper,” “Savior,” and “Gifted” showcase the artist’s progressive music that advocates for equality. War Cry peaked at #3 on Apple Music and cemented Goalden Chyld’s movement.

“I don’t believe you can listen to this album and not feel some sense of purpose and duty to your community,” he told The Final Call.

He added: “I haven’t received a single negative review. The response has been overwhelmingly positive across all age groups. I’ve received messages from nonprofits showing children engaging with the music, which shows its impact. It’s amazing to see a project resonate so deeply across different segments of our community, reinforcing the need for unity and positive change.”

Chyld, real name Qadir Hakim, was raised by a single mother on the rough side of Chicago. His musical abilities transcend barriers for a wider audience with the storytelling of struggles and progress. His resume is filled with endorsements from big names in hip-hop, ranging from Shaquille O’Neal to Lil Baby to Funk Flex.

War Cry quickly gained popularity on streaming platforms and social media, becoming a highly discussed new artist of 2024. The album arrives at the perfect time, especially considering the current social climate.

Goalden Chyld supports the new album with a series of album release events, including an upcoming unity concert in Chicago on May 25 and a five-borough community tour event at SOBs in New York City on May 30.
