Just In!

Hi dolls! As you all know, I’m forever buying makeup so I’m very excited to be doing this post. This time however, these items were sent to me by the famous Konga.com! I was over joyed when I learnt I was getting them for free! (Keep buying! You just might be lucky. lol) Anyway, I was sent four items, 2 of which I find quite interesting and you'll know why in a bit 1. Urban Decay Lipstick in Gravity I've never tried any lipstick from the Urban Decay range so I was glad I got this. As seen below, I have already used the product and it's been good so far, but I'll do a proper review on it and the other products in a separate post. Urban Decay Lipstick - Gravity 2. Revlon Total Control Face Cream    I'm very...

LBD!

Hi dolls! Thanks to Jibbi, I went to Indigo's boutique sometime last month and picked up this gorgeous black peplum dress. I'm not really into peplum dresses but I do have a few peplum tops. However, this dress doesn't come in the regular pelum style that cuts round the waist, it cuts one third on each side leaving the middle one third plain. Different right?  It also has a slightly-low back cut and the V-cut in front accentuates the bust area! (Perfect for those of us who aren't so blessed in that region, LOL) The material is gorgeous and scrupled, and the length makes it even perfect! Here's how I rocked it          Dress- Indigo          Shoes-...

Review: Real Technique brushes!

Hi dolls! I'm so excited to be doing this post as I've wanted these brushes for a LONG time! Allow me to rant about them lool These beautiful babies you see below are called Real Techniques and they're by Samantha Chapman (popular makeup artist/youtube blogger). Most youtube bloggers I'm subscribed to are fans of the brushes, so you can imagine my excitement! Unfortunately, they cannot be purchased in Nigeria at the moment :( so I had to wire money to a friend to help me purchase them. I got the Core selection and the starter set and they each cost £22 (N5742) per set even though it says $18 on the website. P.S The captions show the names of the individual brushes and what I use them for Core Selection  set -Contour brush (to...
