What happened to Naomi's Hair???????

What happened to her hair?........That looks really bad or don't you think so?

Me and Me alone..........

A couple of people said I dont Blog about myself at all.They wanted to know the makeup products I use on my face. So hear am I talking about myself a little bit. Ok to start with, cuz I have a smooth face and it isnt oily, I don't usually prep my face with a foundation primer, but a few times I do use one, its just so that the foundation comes on smoothly. I use either Mac Prep + Prime or Smash box Photo finish. As for foundation, I prefer to use Iman Cream to Powder foundation or Black opal Stick foundation. I use loose powder from Iman and Black Opal as well....(I love Iman alot...). For blush, I use different types as long as I can find the right shade. It could be from the Orekelewa Products(House of Tara), or Black opal, or Sleek. Lipsticks (I love red shades and light pink shades), lipgloss and eyeshadows also varies in range and colors as well.


So basically that is what I make use of for outings and everyday looks. And the picture above is me feeling cute and sexy or don't you think so?........lol...........pls feel free to ask me anything.

Exfoliating your dry chapped lips

Some of us might be experiencing what you call dry lips or chapped lips. I use to have this until I knew about exfoliating……(yes it’s not your face alone that needs exfoliating). Exfoliating the lips is quite an easy thing to do and you don’t need more than 2 minutes of your time to do this. First step:

• Apply a thick layer of Vaseline to your lips.
  

• Using a soft toothbrush, simply rub your lips gently in circular motions. The toothbrush would exfoilate and the vaseline would heal and hyderate.
  

• If you don't have a toothbrush, mix some sugar or coffee grounds into you Vaseline and gently use your finger to rub in circular motions.
  

• If you still don't have a toothbrush (which I very much doubt you won't have one) take your towel, wet it a bit and rub on your lips in circular motions.
  

• And if you don't have coffee grounds or sugar, just take your toothbrush wet it a bit and rub on your lips in circular motions.

Simple and easy right?......try it and tell me what you think and what you felt (I mean results)...................

Remembering Michael Jackson

Today marks one year anniversary of the death of the king of pop music Michael Jackson. He was one of the most influential artists of all time and his influence didn’t stop with pop and r&b. His music and career despite the the hiccups was very and still remains relevant to alot of people. What’s interesting is that it seems and feels like it was only yesterday that we found out the news that Michael had passed away; but at the same times, it feel like it’s been a good while since so much has happened in the past year. But one thing is certain, Michael Jackson is a legend and he would be remembered for a long long time to come.

Kaitaism.............

After a hard football match encounter that led to the Super Eagles of Nigeria losing to Greece at the ongoing World Cup in South Africa,it has been talks all the way for Sani Kaita, one of the players who got a red card for kicking another player.

Burying his head in shame, the Nigerian player, marched off the field of player dejected.

Nigerian Nigeria online community especially facebook wasted no time in condemning the fist of anger displayed by Kaita on the field of the play.


'A new mental sickness has just been discovered by Neurosurgeons. It is called KAITAISIS. It affects the victim's ability to think right or make right judgement especially when it matters most. Victims often confuse the game of soccer for a karate session. Its impact can be monumental as it can become a crisis to a nation'

'Federal Character + Quota system = Kaita'

'A new word has been added to the Dictionary."KAITA" A man who single handedly hinder the hope of his country for reason best known to him. "Kaita" can be use in place of words like Jeopardy, Hinder, Sabotage, Disrupt, Antagonist, fool etc. Examples are Don't kaita what we have been building for 11 yrs in one day. Don't be a Kaita e.t.c.'

Yes the guy messed up, but I think we should give the guy a break.......his messup isnt as bad as Murtalab (did i spell that right..lol) that tried to blow up a plane.

After six years of being absent from the peagent world, Miss Nigeria is set to return to the social calender and for the very first time in its histroy, to be activated in three continents.Africa, Europe and North America.

The Chief executive officer, and creative director of the pageant, Nike Oshinowo-Soleye, disclosed this at a meeting which held at Federal Palace Hotel, Lagos.

Lil Kim Journey Through Style

I have to say, she is one artist that intrigues me with her fashion style. But I think of all, I like this last purple dress better......what do u think?

Dance Queen Kaffy on a recording path........

One of Nigeria’s leading dancers and choreographers Kafayat Shafau a.k.a. Kaffy is launching her music career, after over a decade of her reign as the music industry’s number one dancer.

The gifted dancer, who won the Silverbird-Nokia Danceathon in 2006 after dancing for 55 hours and 40 minutes, told us early this week, that she’s now ready to pursue a career as an artiste, with the release of her debut singles ‘Omo Lasgidi’ and ‘What U Got’.

Kaffy, is respected by her peers for earning the Nigerian dancer some respect. Gone are the days when the dancer was an ordinary side-kick; a side attraction. Today, many dancers and their crews are hosting performances on their own; hitting stages all over the world as independent acts, and getting paid in full. And now, Miss Shafau is taking it further – becoming one of the few in her industry to add a recording career to their portfolio.

ok nice one.....who says Nigerians don't have skills or talents. I mean we are multi talented. From dance to music and maybe acting aswell. Thumbs up to her...........maybe I should consider a music career aswell o.....or what do you think?.........lol

Makeup Products for Women of Color (I mean we blacks)

Women of color at some point really needed makeup lines just for them and this was due to the fact that the cosmetics lines available were geared toward one type of complexion and these weren't compatible with darker skin tones.

However, there's been a great advancement in colors geared towards women of color in all makeup brands, and I do not mean cosmetic lines for women of color alone but also cosmetic lines that provides shades for women of color. But these are some of the brands that were created specially for women of color and brands I like to work with:

IMAN-Designed by a famous supermodel. It is centered on women of color, its a line with multi-cultural appeal. she has a wonderful range of products that are creamy and definately blend well.

BLACK OPAL-A cosmetics line specially formulated for women of color....also with a skin care line. And it comes at quite an affordable price.

FASHION FAIR-This cosmetics line was born in 1973 to cater to the needs of black women. Its one of the oldest makeup lines .

HOUSE OF TARA-Their vision being to be the first choice of cosmetics for every black women.

BM PRO-designed for the rich,beautiful,dark skin of african women...

LISE-a beauty range by Eni Lise Balogun...

Am sure some of you might be wondering why I didnt include names like MAC, MARYKAY, KEVYN AUCION well thats because these lines were not specially formulated for women of color, rather they have shades to accomodate dark skin tones. When I say formulated for women of color, I mean alot of things were not put into consideration e.g our weather conditions in Africa, thats why some times when we wear some of this products, in a very short while, our face becomes oily. But this mainly applies to their foundation and concealer products.
