Her heart of gold is revealed throughout this tale of self-realization, independence, and giving back to God.

It gives me great pleasure to publish this book, Naturally Beautiful, and to include, for your convenience, a reprint of Queen of the Planet Earth: The Rebirth and Rise of the Original Woman. It is my sincere desire that these two writings will be of service to you in your mighty struggle against the gravitational pull of the world. Both books were written specifically for the Black woman and both emphasize your unique status as the Second Self of the Creator and the responsibilities that accompany your position. "Queen" is actually a booklet and I have received countless requests for it since I stopped printing it a few years ago. I believe that if you read it immediately following Naturally Beautiful, it will provide you with some tools that will enhance your ability to take the principles of Naturally Beautiful and engage in practical application of feminine exercises such as communicating with the Self and relating to our families more effectively. May Allah bless us to be real sisters and friends.

During the last decade or so the extent of natural ingredients used by the cosmetics industry has increased, but there is no comprehensive publication on beauty products based on forest products, although scattered information does exist. By bringing attention to the role of forests in supplying beauty products and the connections with livelihood security and utilization of NWFPs, awareness of the importance of forests and their connection with cosmetics will be raised. Within this context, FAO and the Non-Timber Forest Products – Exchange Programme (NTFP-EP) Asia have conducted this regional assessment of NWFPs related to the cosmetics and fragrance sector. The study compiled a set of case studies that examined specific NWFPs and the various traditional contexts in which they are collected, processed and marketed. The main objective of this volume is to present the case studies and the emerging synthesis, while encouraging cross-sectoral discussions in Asia on forests and beauty products. The study also provides recommendations on further enhancing equitable arrangements between forest communities and industry players. The initiative also organized a mini-seminar on forest product contributions to the cosmetics industry as part of the Asia-Pacific Forestry Week 2016 in Clark, Pampanga, the Philippines.
