Kitana Exotica...According to Nielsen, a leading global information & measurement company, Black American women spend an estimated $1.5 billion annually on beauty products. 80% more on cosmetics and twice as much on skin care as their non-Black counterparts. If Black Don't Crack, why are our Sistas spending so much on cosmetics?
ancel1961 Dummy makeup doesn't reverse the aging process, in fact in some women it accelerates it. Besides, when most bw buy beauty products its to highlight their beauty not to look younger.
@@keonta81 I literally just googled her before I made that comment and it said she was born June 19, 1975 age 44. Now I'm no math genius, but I did pass algebra. Now I'm not saying you are wrong, but I'm not saying Google is wrong either.
WOW I haven't seen Alysia or her older sister in a very long time. I remember when she use to come over to her cousin's house when she was little girl in Dunlap subdivision in Milledgeville. I remember seeing her on Soul Train then the movies. It was very cool to see their success. She's really taken care of herself over the years she looks amazing.
She did something to her skin.. You don't just get lighter as you age. I thinks she looks amazing for a 43 year but giving how she looked when she was younger I'd say she shouldn't have messed with her skin at all. She was the best looking dark skin girl out there when class act came out lol.
She doesn’t look that much lighter. But yes ppl do get lighter as they age, you lose melanocytes so less get activated (you can look it up). It was also common for them to tan in the 80s-90s.
When Hip Hop was still young, and we still dictated it, all variations of sista’s got the spotlight. Now that white men control the industry more, they focus on lighter women, Hispanic women, and turn down dark women. I’m not hating. Just making an analysis. Look at the plethora of female artist (especially R&B) we had back in the day and look at today’s playing field. I’m just sayin.
What she does not look the same whatsoever in a good way.She is a beautiful BEFORE and beautiful AFTER.You could tell she takes good care of herself.I'm still 10 years older than her though so she's as old as my younger sister💟😇
Looks like a completely different version of her former self. Is it me or did she get lighter? I loved her dark skin...that was her most beautiful attribute.
No she did get lighter! And I’m trying to figure out how! That’s what I loved most about her was her dark chocolate beautiful skin! And her hair is even different! Before it used to be long full and thick! She’s just a fine ass woman but they don’t make’em like this nomore! 🤦🏾♂️
Listen people......everybody does not bleach their skin! She was 18/19 back then. As you age, sometimes your skin loses melanin. If you look back at your pictures from high school and compare them to now, you'll see a difference in your skin tone.
@@db60615 you sound silly. As you age we do not get lighter. What? Older people about 100 years old end up going from Sudanese Dark to Lighter than Heavy D or Kid from Kid and Play? Come on. She bleached and it's simple. I'm light and got darker as I aged
@🌟HAWG! I aint got time to back and forth with you dummies......If we don't lose melanin, why does hair turn gray??? Why does vertilago exist??? Everybody doesn't get dark spots from sun exposure either! Why do you think tans fade away?
Ooohhh Chile black don't crack doesn't it I can tell she maintained thy self well you hear me?? Great video, beautiful sista, Beautiful soul, awesome pictures.
HOLY SMOKES! I'd swear these were 2 different women!! However, I ain't complaining cause she looks REALLY REALLY GOOD! Almost to the point it makes me wanna cry!
AR-16 Rollin60Crip...I know you guys who were raised by single mothers were taught not to admit it, but Black folks crack with age, just like all other races of people. Just be thankful Alysia Rogers still looks great and isn't obese like the majority of Black women
ancel1961 I suppose aging in dog years and looking like the crypt keeper, like your women do is better, huh? Their faces start cracking with the wrinkles and liver spots by the time they're 25. Lol!!
I could have sworn that when I looked her up about a year ago it said that she was 50..... So if she was born in 75 that means that she was only 16 in Boyz in the Hood and 17 in Class Act? Any way, she looks great! Thanks again Swoop!
I remember her more from Class Act... Blade Browns girl lol. Classic movie. Millennials will never understand.. smh. I need my nostalgia fix everyday.. that body still right too. Smfh
Man I was just sitting here trying to figure out how can she be 43🤔🤔🤔 that will make her like 15 or 16 when she did Boyz in the Hood I thought you was at least 20 something damn she was built for a 15 year old back then
They’re all a bit lighter now, including Regina King and Nia Long. I think it’s the brown skin ( it sometimes changes with age) and also the cameras from back then, they saturated tones a lot more. I low key miss those cameras
Why is no one seeing that!! She looked like she lightened her skin!! And there is nothing beautiful about that to me sorry not sorry!!! She was much more beautiful back in the day with that cocoa black skin!!
No she didn’t retire! She had a baby shortly after boys n the hood and she left show business to raise her because she ended up a single mom! Don’t know why they would wanna leave her fine ass but 🤷🏾♀️
