Cosmopolitan Magazine Implies Black Beauty Is Dead

Cosmopolitan Magazine Implies Black Beauty Is Dead

Cosmopolitan Magazine was recently blasted for posting a style guide that highlighted the beauty of White standards and implied Black beauty needed to rest in peace.

Via The Grio reports:

The fashion magazine attempted to identify what’s out and what’s in – when it comes to beauty- by publishing side-by-side pictures of celebrities and models.

Cosmopolitan originally ran the beauty guide in January, but today the feature entitled 21 Beauty Trends That Need to Die in 2015 is getting some unwanted attention on social media.

Cosmo caught the backlash after the style guide went viral and Twitter went HAM:
