Some of the most popular questions in my inbox are recommendations for affordable products; and a few of them ask precisely about concealers and foundations. The L.A HD concealers happen to be one of my favorite products and definitely a staple in my kit.

So I've been getting a lot of heat about not announcing my upcoming makeup classes on my blog and no excuse can even cover up for it---but honestly, I was getting to it.

Pretty and the Beat is a 3 weeks hands on professional makeup workshop starting on 17th August 2015. This session promises to be an amazing and intensive learning experience as we have partnered with makeup brands and photographers to give our students the best. We would also have special appearances by some of the industry's best to share tips and tricks and also share words of encouragement.

I'm back with another first impressions and review post, this time a proudly Nigerian brand and one I have reviewed before. I was so impressed when I was told that the brand worked on a couple of suggestions I made in that post which obviously made me want to try the new products. Check out my earlier review here.

Happy New Month!!! I know I promised no purchases till June, these are different and I can explain. Maybe we should call them replacements. These Barry M glitters are absolutely amazing!!! I first got them in November 2015 and they were some of my Boots purchases that were on 3 for 2 offer (gotta love Boots!!!). I love the so much I had to get more shades during my last trip and I'm still not disappointed.

I guess its safe to say I'm back!!! From my long hiatus and visit with Queen Eliza; meanwhile she sends her warm regards. You have no idea how much I missed typing from my laptop, I almost don't want to let her sleep at night--she stays beautiful!!!

Hope you've been having a great week so far?? Its mid week, so I'm sure you are looking forward to the weekend already...just a few hours and counting. For some funny reason, I'm also looking forward to the weekend...even though its going to be all work, I'm excited about it.

If you checked out my last post and saw my haul video on YouTube then you'll know about the review bag I was sent courtesy Unveil Makeup. Unveil Makeup, owned by Olubunmi Oyeniyi is one of Nigeria's foremost makeup makeup artists. I remember going through pictures of Unveil works while training to become a makeup artist, its been years and she has definitely evolved not only as a makeup artist but now she also products her line of makeup products and also carries an assortment of wedding and engagement rings.

Hope you had an amazing week? Mine was really tiring. I hit the gym twice this week and for that reason (and that alone) I didn't sleep good for a few nights!!! To all my gym addicts and weight watchers out there...the Lord is your muscle...and fiber!!!

I'm doing a combo post today, so make sure you read till the very very very end!!!!

I did promise I'll be more frequent with post--blame it on the amazing internet!!! I know its really not an excuse, but fast internet just makes me wanna sleep at my desk. I've had an amazing week so far and thank you for all the comments, I do love to hear from you guys...always brightens my day and makes me think that I'm doing something relevant in the society ( I just heard my sister snicker, wherever she is).

There's a lot going on the beauty industry and as beauty lover, I have taken it upon myself to always keep you posted on relevant things in the industry. Today's post features and event I was privileged to know about a couple of months back by my mentor Mrs Khuraira Musa. Its the Beauty Africa Exhibition organized by Informa Life Sciences Exhibitions. Informa has already hosted successful events in the Beauty Industry with recognized shows such as Beyond Beauty, The Bride Show, and China Beauty; and they are finally bringing and event to Nigeria.

I'm so excited about today's post. I almost didn't put this look together because my schedule got so hectic; but an hour before closing time, I decided to stick to what I had planned to do at the beginning of the day--determination, I guess.

Hope you're having a great day so far?? I'm glad its the close of work, I can't wait to get home and kick off my shoes....aarrrgggghhhh...pure bliss.

Hope you had an amazing weekend and awesome week so far?? Happy New Month (I'm just a day late!!!). I know I've been gone for far too long, but you won't believe its Lagos fever that had me away. A big kudos to all Lagosians I know, y'all can stress for Asia!!!!!

Hope you've been amazing and had an awesome weekend?? I'm still gathering my wits about me to bring you the best this month and also 2014. On 2014; can you believe the year is ending already...it started and its ending like a breeze!!!

Hope you've been awesome??!! I've decided to post pictures of random makeovers with details of products used to achieve them.
