Hola Bellas,
I almost missed doing this post, because I thought I was gonna do a collaboration with another beauty blogger for this look; its still a few days to the end of the month, so we can still work on one.
As you know October is marked as Breast Cancer awareness month and is symbolized by the color pink! Which is obviously why today's look is a pink themed look. By now I'm guessing you know that my favorite lip color to wear is pink but for today's look, I added a bit of twist and tried something I only imagined a few days ago. I also used a new eyeshadow palette which I've seen everywhere on social media; its Morphe Brushes palette in 35B
Hola Bellas,
So I was sent this goody bag a couple of weeks ago; right after the New York Fashion Week, but I only got it a few days ago. Thanks to my sister who received the bag on my behalf and had to haul it halfway around Nigeria before it got to me. It was essentially a Thank you gift from Maybelline New York Nigeria, since I partnered in the social media buzz of the NYFW that featured Bimpe Onakoya backstage as one of the artists for Maybelline.

Bimpe Onakoya Artistic Director Maybelline New York Nigeria at Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion Week

Hola Bellas,
I’m so excited about what’s happening in
the Nigerian makeup industry, it seems every day we are breaking bounds and
limits and our very own artists are being recognized all over the world!!!
If you are a beauty lover in Nigeria, I’m
sure by now you are familiar with the name Bimpe Onakoya. She is a 10-year veteran in
the Nigerian beauty industry and I would like to say she’s the most celebrated
makeup artist we have in Nigeria. It’s also no news that she is the Artistic
Director of Maybelline New York Nigeria-I must say she’s a great mentor and role model!
