LOTD : Keeping it Simple!

Hey Pretties,

If you're familiar with the way i wear makeup when i'm in the mood ;-), you'll know that i go all out . But this particular day, i had back-stage work, but i felt it necessary to look the part & decided to Keep it Simple!

Notice, i now rock thinner brows. It's a look i decided to try a few times as i have come across quite a number of brides who barely have brow hairs.



If it's a look you like to rock, you can do it too.

Face
Mary Kay Medium-Coverage Foundation in 600 & 607

Product Review : Casabella Matte Eyeshadows in 'Navajo Brown' & 'Sangria'

Hey Pretties,

I have been a huge fan of Casabella Beauty for 2years owned by Mrs Bukola George who also owns & runs the prestigious 'Healthplus' Pharmacy in Nigeria.


Both businesses i patronise often & so this isn't an advert for them,but great brands should be celebrated once in a while.

Anyway,Casabella owns the REVLON franchise in Nigeria & carry other brands like MAC,Studio Secrets,Almay,Bobbi Brown,Milani, you name it!

So imagine my joy when i learnt they had their own brand, but the catch is : THEY AREN'T BRANDED! Why? i'm absolutely clueless.

 PROS :

- They are highly pigmented. A little swipe goes a long way.
- They're very easy to blend.
- Even though they are Eyeshadows, they double as Blushes (only if you have a light hand).
- The price point is very reasonable for 3grams of Product.
- Navajo Brown triples as an Eyebrow Powder(Good Value for your Money if you ask me).

As a great fan of matte eyeshadows , this is one purchase i'll be making Over & Over & Over Again!!

So if you happen to be in any of the Shoprite Malls ( Lekki, Suru-lere & Ikeja ), stop by Casabella & be sure to say who referred you.
