Holla Bellas, 

How are you doing? Hope you are having an amazing week?

I'm back with another store review, this time of a store I newly discovered. Please note that I'm not paid to publish these reviews; I post them simply to share where I shop especially if the stores have content worth buying (price and quality). 

Kamari Beauty Gallery is a total beauty and gift store. I walked into the store just to window shop and I walked out with items I've been searching for. When I asked the owner of the store what Kamari meant, she says its a fusion of her children's names Kam(si) and Ari(nze).

The store retails majorly perfumes and gift items but also have beauty products such as makeup, hair care, skin care and even lingerie.

Enough talk...

How are you doing? How was your week? I'm so glad the week is over, been having makeup training classes and its been wonderful but stressful all the same. Special shout to the new set of Bellezza students..love you gurls!!!

I'm very picky on products I use on on my skin cos I'm not one for routine. I get bored easily with products especially when I can't see immediate results. I'm also part of the majority that have a combination skin type--oily at the t-zone and dry in some areas; hence I tend to break out very often.

My skincare products

This post is inspired my everyday look. I don't wear makeup all day everyday. Sometimes I put on makeup at about 12pm or sometimes I don't even use makeup at all!! I have combination skin and thus I tend to breakout very often. I have a very thorough skincare regimen, so i usually wait till much later after the skincare products might have sunk into my skin; before I use my makeup.

Hey Bellas,

How are you doing?/ How was your weekend?? I had splendid one!!! I was at AMUF 2 and will be uploading pictures and of course my freebies very soon!!!

My friend/client Ameerah of the Nail Bar is one of the most industrious ladies I know. The Nail Bar if organizing a one day D-I-Y Skincare seminar in Abuja.

Bellas,

Acne/Pimple, is one thing we ladies struggle with over and over again. Sometimes it comes due to diet change, increase in stress levels, period cycle, routine change, dirty makeup tool(ahn ahn)...and so many more.

Last month, i had breakout on my cheeks and forehead. And believe me, i was so worried cos i didn't change my routine, no new product, and the pimples were everywhere!!! I'm very careful and minimal concerning products that i use on my face. I don't try everything i see/hear of, i do a lot of research still with fear in mind though.

Thus, my journey to an answer/cure began. I visited a dermatologist who recommended a pimple removal system "Retin-A Cream" which i had to use directly on affected areas alone once daily(only at night). To me, it smells like rotten butter, but it worked som magic. However, a few days after i used it, i realized that my skin was peeling on areas i used it on.

During this time i was using Neutrogena Cleansing soap and Neutrogena (Oil Free) Acne Stress Control Wash, which i had to discontinue cos i felt it was making my skin worse.

Hmmm...i also used SebaMed cleansing bar and also got the same drying effect as the Retin A cream, I tried getting the cleanser, scrub and toner so i could have the full range of SebaMed products...

So you'll wanna know what product got the breakouts off??....well look our for it in my next post...
PS: The effects of this products on your skin might be different on your skin. Be sure to visit a certified Dermatologist especially to know the type of breakouts you are having.
