Hola Bellas,
The makeup fair is here again!!! And its live in the city of Lagos. For those of you who are not familiar with The Makeup Fair Series; it's the most successful event (or series of events) that has brought together makeup and beauty lovers together under one roof. The series has successfully been established in at least 5 cities with Lagos, Abuja and Owerri topping the charts and more cities in the very near future.
Hola Bellas,
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!!!!
Hola, Bellas,
How are you doing?? Hope you had a great weekend? Mine was one of those ones you can't wait to get over with and start a beautiful week!!! Monday is usually my favorite day of the week (for some weird reason I know not of), I usually look forward to it with so much anticipation!!!
I'm trying to shy away from the subject of my recent absence; blame it on the internet service providers in Nigeria. I'm trying to chance my service provider but I went ahead with the old one I use hopefully I'll get the new one sorted pretty soon.
Hola Bellas,
Hope you've been having a splendid week so far?? Mine has been a piece of red velvet cake---trying to ease back into writing and sorting out the hundreds of pictures to go along with my reviews coming up soon. Thanks for being patient, posts coming up shortly!!!
Holla Bellas,
How have you been?? Hope your last week was wonderful?? I must apologize for not even attempting one post!!! I got back fro the Port Harcourt Makeup Fair and the whole week was a whirlwind of activities, I started planning a trip to Lagos (where I am now). Well, this week is looking to be busier but I promise to post up everything I have planned.
Hola Bellas.
Hope you had a great weekend?? Mine was too short!!! It was gone in a matter of seconds!!! And my week is moving at the same pace...like a train!!! I do apologize, I have a couple of posts in the offing, but my internet went off on me last week; should post them up pretty soon. Also look out for my next collab with Omosalewa real soon.
Hola Bellas,
I promised to fill you in on all that has been happening and I thought the first order just had to be the second Abuja Beauty Connect series which took place on 13th October and it was really a fun and educative experience for me. Not only did I get to learn and share but I also got to mingle with my colleagues. To view pictures and gist on the first Abuja Beauty Connect, click here.

Hola Bellas,
Hope you are having an amazing weekend???!!!
The Makeup Fair Series is moving to Uyo---Uyo is a city in south-eastern Nigeria and is the capital of Akwa Ibom State, a major oil producing state of Nigeria. I'm so excited, cos I'm gonna be there!!!! I've never been to Uyo and I can't wait to experience the South-Eastern hospitality.

I'm back with another store review, this time with a store that is relatively new in the city of Lagos, although a prior branch exists in Port Harcourt--I introduce to you Gifty's Daughter Beauty Store (GDBs).
Hola Bellas,
Often time, in this part of the world, we forget to celebrate hardworking innovators--which really is sad, however I believe that things are changing.
That being said (I sounded so serious), The Makeup Fair--organized by Pops Concepts--visited the beautiful city of Owerri for the first time ever. The event took place at The Kel-Vic Suites, Owerri. Personally, I couldn't make it for the fair but the pictures speak---

Last weekend, Pops Concept (brain behind the Makeup Fair Series) organized the first ever Makeup and Beauty Connect Series. The event was basically a network meeting for makeup artists and beauty consultants. It was a fun time with colleagues without the hustle at fairs an exhibition. There was a talk by Mr Innocent Usa, a life coach and motivational speaker. Here are a few excerpts from his speech.

How are you doing?? And how’s your week going?? Mine has been awesome and I’m still reeling from the excitement of the Lagos Makeup Fair.
So a few months back we had the maiden edition of the Abuja Makeup Fair (AMUF) organized by Pops Concepts, and fast forward a few months later we had the Lagos Makeup Fair (LMUF). If you missed my post on AMUF please click here to view.
The fair was an avenue for makeup and beauty brands, retailers, artists, enthusiasts and lovers to mingle, discuss and purchase all things beauty and makeup. LMUF took place at the spacious Grand Marquee of Our Place in the heart of Ikeja and the attendance was amazing. Trust Lagosians to show up in droves.
I was at the fair representing Arike Cosmetics and though I was helluva busy I had an opportunity to meet with my friends and colleagues that I’ve known since forever on Facebook and BBM. Although this time I didn’t win any goody bag (Omolola Faleye owes me!!!) I purchased quite a number of things and will be doing a post of my haul in a bit.
Here are few of the exhibitors: House of Tara, Arike Cosmetics, Sleek Makeup and Skincare, Taries World, Gifty’s Daughter, Sacred Beauty, Calicolors Cosmetics, Dazzle Makeovers, Divaz Hair and Beauty, Oma Makeovers, Venus, Jaga Beauty, Hegai and Esther, Sacha Cosmetics, AIT, City People Magazine, Beauty Overdose Magazine, Standup to Cancer Naija, Black Secret's Makeup and much more!!!
So enough talk…let the pictures speak!!!
