How To Achieve A Glowing Skin During Summer of 2020!

  1. Bio-oil
  2. Face Mask by De Tuinen
  3. Body Spray from Nivea
  4. Hugo boss perfume
  5. Biotherm body lotion
  6. Duvolle face cleanser
  7. Clinique hydrating lotion
  8. Elmex toothpaste and a Listerine mouthwash
  9. Rituals Body scrub
  10. Lancome cleansing tonic
  11. Philosophy face cream

I am a certified beauty consultant with diplomas in skincare, makeup, perfume, and cosmetics. If you do wish to remove discoloration on your skin, acne, scar,s and other skin blemishes, you need to massage bio oil on your skin on daily basis, drinking a lot of water is also recommended. You may want to use Clinique, Philosophy, or Biotherm hydrating lotion at night and day time, these lotions are ideal for men and women.

Almost a decade ago, I did my internship at Detuinen and Kruidvat in Rotterdam in The Netherlands, and also worked at Parfum Star Rotterdam for several years,  I coached several persons on how to tke care of themselves and also best cosmetics to use.I am a beauty consultant in The Netherlands if you need one on one coaching or via video WhatsApp calls, please contact me

I am a personal shopper, I have helped several men to buy cool outfits such as blazers, t-shirt, school bag, shoes, underwears, singlet, perfumes and more.

  1. We fashion
  2. Esprit
  3. Van gils
  4. C&A
  5. H&M
  6. Bomont
  7. De Bijenkorf

This above-mentioned shop has really cool trendy outfits. I really like the WE FASHION shop and H&M shop in Amsterdam Bijmer Arena, these above-mentioned shop has great varieties of clothing! A few months ago, I went to Amsterdam Bijmer Arena and bought some nice clothing at We Fashion and also at TK MAxx. In the year 2017, I bought some nice outfits at WE Fashion shop in Rotterdam and also at Zara shop,  very nice white blazer, I wore the white blazer a lot during my Master’s studies at the University of Dundee.

My advice for men this summer period is to eat well, exercise often, practise self-grooming such as manicure, pedicure, wear a nice perfume, wash your self often per day and relax. You may want to relax by listening to cool music, avoid listening to sorrowful music and be very polite. Women love kind-hearted and polite men.

Trendy Hair Style Idea 2020!

Hello my beautiful friends and family! How are you? I hope you all are doing great. This is a requested blog post. I love styling my hair. Summer is here! We all wants to have a nice hair style, good manicure and pedicure so that when we go to the beach, we feel very good. I like wearing nice hair. I like to brush my hair and feel the texture of my hair too. I am so happy to be  hair stylist. I get to feel different hair texture, advice regarding cool hair trends, dye and give hair cut.

Below are some of the hair styles I do recommend this year! Women, you can wear your hair in a knot behind your head, dye it, blow dry it, tong it, braid it, wash it at least twice a week. Men, wash your hair too regularly, go for hair cut once in a month at lest, dye your hair if you do have grey hair. I do recommend loreal hair dye.  You can use channel hair mist and spray on your hair, that would make your hair smell really nice.

I love wearing wigs and fixing weavon. I am currently trying to grow my own natural hair. So I am using the home made remedy for it. Rice water. I spray this on my hair. I have been using this for one week and I can see the result. it is  a brilliant way to grow your hair. I also use the hair growth vitamin from De tuinen.

 

I hope these hair styling tips inspires you. I am a hair stylist, please contact me if you need some guidance on how to makeyour hair look better and more fabulous.

How To Care For Your Dearie!

Hello my beautiful friends and family, how are you? Today, I am going to inspire all the men around the world on how to take care of your derie ( your wife, girlfriend, lover, woman in my own opinion. Women are like flowers, women need to be taken care of and not be hurt physically, emotionally nor verbally.

  1. Send her flowers
  2. Be a good listener
  3. Give her compliments
  4. Do not be selfish in bed., rather touch her and give her affection, not once a week, or in a year, but on daily basis.
  5. Gift her, please do not send your wife gift that is not from your heart.
  6. Please do destroy her items, rather help in maintaining it
  7. Men avoid verbal, mental, emotional abuse towards your wife.
  8. Do not take items or your wife’s belongings and sell them or give them to another woman without her knowledge.
  9. If your wife can not make children, please see a doctor, do an ivf (invitro fertilization)  if need be. Please do not insult her due to inability to get pregnant or try to solve the pregnncy issue by yourself as a man, rather do it together.
  10. Never judge your wife. Leave God in heaven to judge. If your wife makes mistake, do not beat her up in the house or on the street, rather correct her, guide and coach her
  11. Some men do set their wife up with other men in order to test her faithfulness towards him. Men, do remember that your wife is only human and not God, so please do not tempt your wife, rather, coach, teach, uplift and love her unconditionally.
  12. If your wife offends you, forgive her instantly, avoid setting her up with togs, implicating her or to a vulnerable situation.
  13. Do not stop her hone, her home internet connections, her browsing history, rather trust her
  14. These above-mentioned tips are also applicable to women. Women should also be nice, kind to their husband.
  15. Men, if your wife does tell you what she likes and not like, please stick to that, please do avoid engaging in the same activities that may upset her. For example, if your wife does like a tidy home, please keep it tidy all the time.
  16. Please do not ears drop on your wife, spy on her or deceive and lie to her, rather, protect her, guide and love your wife.
  17. Have fun and enjoy your marriage life.
  18. Never blame a woman for mistakes she did not commit intentionally. For example, if you just met your girlfriend, if you never asked her if she was married or not in the first place, before entering a relationship with her, do not blame her afterwards when you find out she is married because you never asked her in the first place. Some married women and men do keep their marriage status to themselves when they are not asked due to privacy reasons. It is not in my place nor yours to judge such individuals. Rather, be very sure of whom you are dating before finally deciding to marry them eventually.

 

Disclaimer, I am not a marriage expert rather, I am writing in regards to how I would be liked to be treated as a wife, hence I have some marriage experience.

I am very pleased to announce to you all that I have finally started writing my digital book here. Thank you all so much for your love, kindness and inspirations.

I love you!

How To Find A Job In The Netherlands In 2020!

Hello, my amazing friends and family! How are you today? I hope you all are doing well. Today, I am going to share with you five top websites you can find a job. I have a LinkedIn account, please find the link below.

  1. Linkedin
  2. Monsterboard
  3. National vacature bank
  4. Jobrapido
  5. Indeed.nl

There are several other websites for finding a job, but these links mentioned above are easier to use to find a job. If you do need help with creating your cv, you can contact Cavazanni recruitment agency in Nigeria.  I have had the great opportunity to work with several prestigious companies in African and Europe. My first job in The Netherlands was at restaurant Toro dorado, that was in the year 2010, I could barely speak the dutch language then. If you are looking for a job for non-Dutch speakers, you can check out werk.nl to find jobs in restaurants.  You may want to contact recruitment agencies such as unique, tempo team, Cavazanni, Facebook groups, and many others. You may want to go to the door to door and find a job. visit some restaurants, boutiques, hotels and mention to them that you need a job, I got jobs severally by doing so.  From my experience working over a decade in The Netherlands, most companies need candidates that are very flexible and willing to work five days a week and also available minimum of forty hours per week.

I hope these tips inspired you. I am a certified beauty, business and health consultant in The Netherlands. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need one and one coaching on finding a job! Thank you so much for reading my blog.

How To Earn Financial Assistance From The Dutch Gorvenment

Hello, my beautiful friends and family! How are you? I hope you all are doing well. This is a commonly asked question. I have been asked several time, if I do receive financial assistance from the Dutch government, my answer is no. I do not receive financial assistance. I do currently have my own business. There are several criteria you need to meet before (uitkering) financial assistance can be granted.

  1. You have to apply for your self. If you have someone registered on your address, you need to register with the person registered on your address. If you have children registered on your address, you have to include all the names of your children on the application form. Uitkering would not be granted to you if you have someone living in your address and the person can not apply alongside with the man or woman on the address if he or she is a student and not allowed to apply for uitkering due to the fact that the person is a student and not allowed to apply for uitkering.
  2. You have to submit your bank statement for the application.
  3. You have to make sure you have a registered address.
  4. If you are receiving alimentation from your husband, you need to declare how much you are receiving.
  5. If you are pregnant, uwv uitkering may be granted to you if you do have your own registered business.
  6. If you are receiving study financing (duo) you may not be able to receive uitkering
  7. If you are a mummy, nursing a newly born baby and can not start working immediately, because you need to nurse your newlyborn precious baby, please do ask the dutch gorvenment for financial assistance

Over a decade ago, I received uitkering from the Rotterdam municipality for a couple of months, The rotterdam gorvenment also sponsored by studies at Beauty partners in Rotterdam in The Netherland.  after a while, my uitkering was stopped when I started studying at the university. I started living in Middelburg at the end of my study year ar Rotterdam University of Applied sciences.  A few years ago, I applied for uitkering, in zeeland, it ws not granted because the person registered at my address then could not apply for uitkering alongside with me because of studies. I have been working as a self employed.

If you not wish to apply for uitkering, and need to start your own business, you need to register with the chamber of commerce in The Netherlands (kvk). If you need more coaching regarding starting your own business, please do contact me.

My dear friends and family, I hope this blog post inspired you. Thank you so much for reading my blog. Good luck!

xoxo

Femme Luxe Tryon Haul 6th Edition

Hello, my beautiful friends and family! How are you today? I hope you all are doing well. This is the sixth collaboration of Femme Luxe. Femme Luxe sent me four lovely outfits. I am so happy with the amazing outfits I received from Femme Luxe, please find the pictures and videos below.

I had so much fun styling these outfits. The lovely outfits arrived a few days ago at my address in Zeeland.  The weather is great in The Netherlands, not too cold anymore during the day, so I wore these outfits indoors and outdoor. The black leather dress is very cute. I styled it with my lovely bonnie black shoes and canvas I bought from Amazon. The black leather dress is so nice, high quality and fits me well.

I also like the grey lounge wear and a brown dress too. I have been wearing beautiful dresses from Femme Luxe quite often. The dresses are very pretty, I like wearing the Femme Luxe dresses indoors, running errands, filming and during my photoshoots.

The black leather dress can be worn for a birthday party, as evening wear, as a date night outfit or just for chilling at home with your partner. The brown dress can also be worn for the above-mentioned occasions. The grey lounge wear is very comfortable and easy to style. If you do wish to run for a quick errand, you can simply wear a long winter jacket on top.

In the youtube video below, I shared with you the lovely outfits from Femme Luxe. I also shared with you tips on how to become more confident. Some of my international friends have asked me to share some great tips on how to improve one’s confidence. Confidence can be improved by wearing decent outfits, good makeup, beautiful skin, good English language or dutch language speaking skills and by having great supportive family and friends members.

Thank you so much Femme Luxe for sending these lovely dresses. I had so much fun creating this content for you guys! I would like to use this opportunity to thank my friends that has helped me to create these lovely pictures, although, some of the pictures I created myself.

How To Achieve Clearer and Even Skintone 2020!

Hello, my beautiful friends and family! How are you? I hope you all are doing well. I have been a photo model for over sixteen years now. In order to be a photo model, one of the criteria is to have a nice body shape, even skin, and skills for posing. I have shot with so many photographers.

I wish to use this opportunity to advise models, mothers struggling with stretch marks, uneven skin tone after delivery, weight loss, persons suffering from acne, eczema, caesarean section scars and more, tips on how to achieve even, clearer, even, and glowing skin.

I feel so happy, blessed and happy to be a mother. Every parent loves, cherish and adores their kids. Aside from showering all the love, care and tenderness to our kids, we need to shower love, care and tenderness to ourselves as well.

  1. Use bio-oil on your skin. I gave birth to my first child over a decade ago, bio-oil has been a lifesaver. I massage bio oil on my stomach area, scar area, uneven skin tone area in order to achieve a beautiful, glowing skin every day in order to achieve a lovely, beautiful scar-free skin so that I may be able to work as a photo model.
  2. Drink lots of warm water.
  3. Have you just given birth with caesarean section or natural delivery, please do soak yourselves in the bath every day or jacuzzi if you are very buoyant with warm water,  Dettol to the water? Taking a warm bath every day will speed up the healing process of your scars. As soon as your scar is healed, you would be able to get back on your feet to indulge in sporting activities in order to shed the fat on the body accumulated as a result of pregnancy. This tip is meant for all mothers worldwide!
  4. Please use body scrub from Rituals, Dr Kneip every day to scrub your body!
  5. Eat great food. Avoid consuming excess carbohydrate, rather, eat lots of fruits and vegetables
  6. Excercise often, jogging, cycling, situps can help you lose weight and achieve glowing skin
  7. Have fun!

For many years, I have worked with men and women. My findings are, women that did not massage oil on their stomach every day during pregnancy and after pregnancy suffered severing scaring, Tommy sagging, excess stretchmarks.  Women that did take good care of their body by applying bio-oil or any other kind of oil on their skin had less or no stretch marks on their Tommy or underneath their breast areas. A lot of women also experienced sagginess on their breast as a result of breastfeeding.  in order to avoid breast sagginess and excess stretch mark on your breast area as a result of enlargement of the breast during breastfeeding,  a firm bra from hunke Moller is advised, daily administering of bio-oil is also recommended.

I hope this tip above is useful for all the ladies and gentlemen reading my blog! Thank you so much for reading my blog and remain blessed! I am a certified beauty, health and business consultant in The Netherlands. Please contact me if you would like to work with me.

xoxo
