Spice Space

Who would have thought that a time would come when slay queens would be shopping for most of their beauty products not just from the grocery store but from among cooking spices, herbs and teas!

Hair care and skin care recipes are invading our kitchen and pantries faster than you can think up a word, so to speak. When the kitchen is out of chili, mum, aunt, sister or heck girlfriend is likely first suspect.

Debts * Another Face of Slavery

I take a quick peek into my purse, aahh! Not enough in there, but I have to have that bag on display. Girl, those shoes too! Oh crap!

I walk into the nearby mall and ... Look at that! This is too much! How on earth can I not afford that? That gown! And it's on sale too! Arrrgh!

I have been looking around for something that works in making my face take on a natural, beautiful and healthy glow and at some point I was not sure I could without spending the naira (I can be thrifty too, hey!).

We are no longer certain about the purity of even the air we breathe. Conditions warrant that we review our personal care regimen for any possible modifications if we want to live healthy for longer.

Meet My Skin

I have come to learn that oily skinned people are quite prone to investing a fortune in skin care products and make up in a bid to find the right products that deal effectively with oil and unnecessary shine. I am talking extremely oily and not combination or any other skin type. Yours sincerely is a typical example.

Cosmetics is Green!

Green is the new colour of cosmetics. These days many have become wiser in their cosmetics making decisions. When one walks into a cosmetics store, women ...and men might I add, can be seen carefully reading through product descriptions and ingredients. Most likely to help make informed and yes, safe purchases.
