Nigerian Bridal Makeup & Gele

I was requested to do a Nigerian bridal makeup and Gele tutorial, for some of you whom do not know am a Nigerian I am a true Nigerian from the south-south oil rich zone Niger Delta, Rivers-State Port-Harcourt. When it comes to a traditional bride in Nigeria we normally would dress according to the part of the country where you come from, this is not the typical Rivers State dressing but to an extend it because I have on my white coral beads, beaded blouse and Gele, we wear a tight fitted big beaded blouse not Iru and Buba like this Yoruba's . The Nigerian bride loves her beautiful bold looks.
The traditional Rivers State woman will be dressed with a lot of real coral beads necklace, beaded blouse, big wrappers which we call India , Gele , coral beaded headpiece, ankle bracelets depending on the part of Rivers State where she comes from weather from the riverine or upland, its a very colourful event. Live bands may perform traditional music while everyone enjoys a meal and dancing.  Her new husband arrives with his family to claim his bride and the couple departs to begin their new life together . For the makeup look I paid so much attention to the skin because its all about the glow which is also called STROBING.

LUXURY SHOPPING MISTAKES TO AVOID IN 2022

  We all love our luxury items don't we? I'm sure we all do. Luxury products are not cheap and with the insistent price increase from  brands. Of course, we want to wear these luxury brands because we love the lux lifestyle and having to spend hundreds of our hard earned on these items can sometimes be ridiculous. I have narrowed down six tips on how to avoid luxury shopping mistakes and also buyers remorse.   1. Avoid Instagram hype trendy items: Do not fall for the Instagram hype when you see influencers wearing this items. What some of you fail to understand is that some influencers are gifted this items from luxury brands to promote because that is part of their job. A trendy item will be gone in the next couple of months and there comes another trend. Who wants to keep up with this trend every 6-12 months, spending thousands of money on these items?

My Top 5 Most Used Luxury Handbags.

Yesterday i shared on my YouTube channel my top 5 most used luxury handbags before the lock down. Luxury handbag collection is a life style and not a brand. I love to collect luxury handbags because i know that these are my forever pieces and could also be passed down from one generation to another. This is a new addition to my Chanel collection i bought this last year December as a graduation gift to myself from the University. Chanel beige caviar leather, double flap, sliver hardware in the size jumbo which is also called large. This bag i absolutely love but i wish i opted for the size medium instead apart from that i have no regret having this in my collection and also a big plus for me is that this can be worn cross body. If you are in the market for a Chanel bag just know that you will be paying more as there is a price increase of 7% so this particular bag will be going for  up to 7-8,000$ but make sure to get in touch with your sales assistant for more details.
