Hey Bellas,
How are you doing?? Its been such a long time and I must confess I really really missed posting on my blog. Not a day went by without me wishing i could summon up the emotions to write...i would start a few lines and then just end there. I guess now i'm over and done with my blue moments and back and better!!!
A lot happened during my hiatus; some of which i can talk about and some i can't. One of which is the fact that i graduated from Pan African University sometime in July and now yours truly is an Entrepreneurial Manager**dancing azonto** For the rest of this month and hopefully the year, you're gonna be seeing so much of me, you'll be glad i'm back.
So to celebrate my return from the "Blue World" i decided to create a very simple look and its probably the simplest makeup I've ever had on. This look was a request from so many people, that i just couldn't resist anymore.
Enjoy the pictures...look out for the steps below
Hey Bellas,
How are you doing??
I can begin to give excuses for my sudden absence, going through some personal issues, i'm gonna be back real soon...i promise.
Early this year i did a photoshoot with my dear pregnant friend Ronke Gabriel-Omolegbe and it was my first experience with a preggo but i had fun and my model/client was the best preggo you will ever meet.
I promised i wasn't gonna post pictures until she delivered. And i'm surprised i did't yield to my impulses to upload. Well, Ronnie has delivered her bundle of joy...named Jotham and he's about 4 weeks old now...
Enough talk...watch and learn!!

Hey Bellas,
How are you doing?? How was your weekend?? Hope you had fun?..feel like I'm playing 21 questions...*winks*. Mine was a haze...all i remember is my body ached all Saturday a bit on Sunday...oh! the wonderful life of a makeup artist.
It a new week and for me its a school week; my final week in business school and I'm in the cloud, cos I'm so excited!!! I'm really not that lazy, its just that I've put aside so much to be in school for the past 6 months and can't wait to get things back in order. My graduation ceremony is on the 21st July and I'm looking forward to it.
So this week, I'm starting off with a light look and i promise to try to post some easy looks this week.
Hey Bellas,
How are you doing and how has your week been?? The weekend approaches gradually, but there is no rest for a makeup artist...not complaining though.
Sometime during the week I had another photoshoot. Again, Jameelah was there to lend her beautiful face and of course her amazing personality. I also had a new model..Kingi who by the way makes makeup sweeter(if it could be).
For this shoot i went all our with beautiful blues, pinks and black...yeah!! I went on the wild side and eben did a pink glittery leopard print look.
Enough talk..

Hey Bellas,
How are you doing?? And how's your weekend going?? I'm having a swell time here at the Abuja Makeup Bootcamp and it's been a fun and fulfilling Saturday.
Today's post is actually for my lips only hence the title LOTD(Lips of The Day). I used Arike Lipgloss in 011 and its a wonderful flush of fuchsia pink that I'm so loving right now hence, my desire to share with you.
Enough talk...

Hey Bellas,
How are you doing?? I hope you enjoyed your week and hope you’re gearing up for the weekend? It’s been a lovely week for me and I’m looking forward to a busy weekend ahead with a wedding and a seminar…I know I’m gonna have a great weekend…at least one for the books.
Hey Bellas,
How are you doing and how is your week going?? Hope you're having a swell time??
So..contrary to all my busy busy plans this week, I've been sentenced to a one week compulsory bed rest..so right now it sucks to be me. To make matters worse getting internet connection is proving difficult. So i took a shot and i'm smiling hard at myself in the cafe.
