Mini Makeup Haul


Hello darlings,

The last post of the day. I promise.
I love make up. I cant help it. Once I have enough money to spare, I buy make up. The way to my heart, give me food, shoes and make up ;;)
Got a few things recently.
 House of Tara High Intensity Pigment - Margret Ekpo
 
 

L.A Girl Pro Concealers in Espresso, beautiful bronze and toffee.
Got them for 1200 each.
 
L.A Pride Matte Lipstick in Sweet Pink - N1000
 
A set of 4 brushes - blending brushes. Got them from my friend @slimmytychus on twitter. 4 of them for N3000.
 
The last brush is a contour brush - N3000.
 
House of Tara High Intensity Pigment - Margret Ekpo. I am obsessed with this palette. Kai. Doesn't it look gorgeous? The colours are soo pigmented and beautiful. Best part for me is that they all have a matte finish. Oh how I love matte eyeshadows.
Would create a look with it soon enough. Got the palette for N2800 (i am not sure) but its between (2500 and 2800)
 
 
Thank you for visiting my blog.
I really appreciate it.
 
Enjoy the rest of your week
 
Khasome.
 




Smokey Cat Eye and Mo Hawk


Hello darlings,

I am back. I apologize in advance but i intend to post atleast 3 posts today.
This post would be about my hair and my make up look. I rocked this look last week sunday to church.
I love looking good for my first Love: Jesus.
I created a Smokey cat eye using paper tap and black eyeshadow alone. I loved the results.
Here are some pictures.

The idea of the hair style was gotten from TheChicNatural's Youtube Channel. I visit her channel all the time, when I have data i.e. I washed and deep conditioned my hair before I got this done.
Showed my hair stylist the style and she did a pretty good job. Both sides were plaited and the middle was twisted and then straws were used to curl it. Left it that way for over 10 hours and that was the result after I removed the straws and loosen the twists.
It didn't last long because I didn't exactly know how to keep the curls without having to retwist. Carried this for one week and I just retwisted it once in that week.
You could check TheChicNatural's channel for the entire process. Ladies with relaxed her can also pull this off but I believe you will need something extra to get the curls.

I used just water, coconut oil and shea butter.
