Photoshoot:Dolapo Meets Bellezza Faces

2:57 AM

Hola Bellas,

How are you doing today?? Still in the TGIF mood.

Funny title to my post seeing that Dolapo is Bellezza Faces. For my birthday every year I always have a photoshoot and this year wasn't exception although I must say I went all out this year with my outfits and my makeup was extra glam.

I had a total of 4 oufits and unlike other shoots...I was done in 30mins!!! Who says girls waste time?? Enjoy my photoshoot pictures....

Hola Bellas,

How are you doing?? Thank God its Friday (TGIF)!!! Not like I'm doing anything this Friday but a special shout out to friends and readers that live in the city of Lagos, and work 9-5...y'all rock!! Please make sure you do something fun this weekend. *wink*wink*

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.

Music Meets Runway 2012

7:37 AM

So I first heard of Music Meets Runway (MMR) last year when MUD makeup was in Exclusive stores, Abuja for a campaign. I was asked by Kayode (former MUD artist) if I would like to be a part of the team; but the notice was so short I couldn't possibly make it.

Holla Bellas,

NOTW: Shattered at The Nail Bar

4:43 AM

Hola Bellas,

How have you been?? Its been a very busy December so far, thus my being MIA for a bit. I've got a couple of posts up my sleeves before this year runs out. So for me its a race against time.

It was my birthday a couple of days ago and before I could catch a breather I was off to Kano the day after my birthday. For my birthday I treated myself to a mani-pedi at The Nail Bar--my very first visit as a client. I got my nails fixed and painted.

Shattered!!!!

Hola Bellas,

How are you doing?? I hope your week has been great!!!

I've been helluva busy, owing that everyone seems to be getting married in December, hence duty calls.

My super sweet 26 birthday was yesterday 12-12-12( amazing date, yeah?) and i had so much fun. I've been looking forward to this date since I could read a calendar and count years!!!

FOTD: Pinky and the Brain

5:05 AM

Hola Bellas,

How are you doing today? Hope you had a great weekend and hope your Monday started off to a great week ahead. My weekend was wonderful and I feel ready to take on the world :D

So I'm sure you're guessing what I've got up my sleeve with the title of today's post...not much really. I'm celebrating the return of my nerd look and also one of the eyeshadow colors I really don't like to use--Pink. Considering the fact that over 50% of ladies love pink and I also love pink--I still can't fathom why I hardly ever use it.

Today I decided to be adventurous and take a leap on the wild side. I love the total look and can't wait to try it on someone at a shoot or a wedding.

Enjoy the pictures...and find below the list of products I used to get the look.

Abuja Makeup Fair Season II in Pictures

10:27 AM

Holla Bellas,

How are you doing?? How's your week going?? Mine has slowly winded up today and can't wait to flip my brushes this weekend with my impending bride.

The second edition of AMUF held on November 3rd and as usual Pops Concepts went all out; with amazing artists and beauty/makeup vendors. I was on my feet all through with makeovers and product sales at the Khuraira booth. It was an amazing experience-- I got to spend a few hours with my favorite makeup artists Bookie and Jide. I don't know what enjoyed more...gisting and trailing or makovers!!

I finally got pictures of the event via Pops Concepts...if you weren't there---my aim is just to make you jealous and promise yourself not to miss the next one!!!

Enough drama....get jealous!!!

FOTD---Teal Me Pink Matching Look

12:34 PM

Hey Bellas,

As follow up to my NOTW-Teal me Pink I had this look on for the Runway Show recently. Though I was backstage, I had every right to look as gorgeous as I looked. I was aiming for a look with red lips(ruby woo style), but I got carried away by my nail polish, hence I couldn't wear my earrings.

Do notice that most of these pictures were taken in a car en route the venue of the show--but I do take good pictures hence no blurry ones!!!

I had this look together in 10mins....if I can do that, anyone can. Enough talk, enjoy the look and find below list of the products I used...

Hey Bellas,

How are you doing? How was your weekend? Mine was very hectic and I'm still sort of hungover with the stress from it. My week is looking to be a short one. I just home I can get some rest before next weekend's drama.

Its been a while since I last posted anything on my nails; just been super busy and by the time my nail polish dries up--I'm somewhere else. I do apologize and hope to keep from here on now.

Since we don't have summer in this part of my world, this nail color was inspired by my wanna be 'summer trend'. I also have a look to go with this polish( wasn't intentional, just flowed into it).

I hope you like it, enjoy the pictures...
