TECH GIFT
For more than 50 years, Audio-Technica has been dedicated to producing high-quality, innovative products, including ATH-CK3TW truly wireless, in-ear headphones. With an ultra-compact design, they’re ready to go whenever and wherever, empowering “explore and connect.” The really cool thing about these headphones is that they automatically power on and off when they’re taken in and out of the charging case. Also, they can detect when they are taken out of the ears and automatically pause the audio. When they are put back in the ears they start playing again; never miss a beat! Visit audio-technica.com.

UNIQUE GIFTS IDEAS
Facebook’s BuyBlack Friday Gift Guide is perfect for people on anyone’s gift list. For skincare gifts, one suggestion is the Turmeric Botanical Bar, available at Redoux NYC. It’s good for all skin types and contains vegan and all-natural ingredients. Shopping for someone that loves scents of apples, sandalwood and amber? Give them the Love Jones Candle, available at Maryland-based Freres Branchiaux. There are also these gorgeous St. Margaret Tassel Earrings from The Tiny Tassel in South Carolina. What’s great is that all of these shops are black-owned small businesses that are a part of Facebook’s BuyBlack Friday campaign to bring awareness and support to black-owned businesses.
