Hi muffins, I hope you all are doing great! Here are some pictures to inspire you how to do your makeup and styling! These pictures were taken few years ago during my photosession in The Netherlands. These pictures were shoot in zeeland in The Netherlands by a dutch famous photographer!!!
By the way, I have been asked by my friends especially from Nigeria to teach them dutch. Ik spreek goed Nederlandse! leuk he! (just wrote in dutch yeeh)
I have also been asked alot to create my videos in dutch. I have given most of my non- dutch friends coaching on how to learn the dutch language fast, my tips includes the folowing – read dutch books, newspaper, watch dutch television programmes, leaning from YouTube and so on.
I find learning new languages fun, I do love to learn spanish and italian languages as well.
Wishing you all a great weekend!!!
xoxo

Hey lovelies , I hope you all are doing well. I recently created a video ( see below) to inspire you on how to look more fabulous and some heathcare tips. I used to work at de.tuinen and Kruidvat as assistent drogist. During my working experience with these prestigieus companies, I learnt alot about how to give customers advice related to oral hygiëne, Hair care and skincare.
I purchased lots of vitamines from de tuinen; Etos and Kruidvat . Vitamins are essential for the body such as vitamine a, b,c, d, e and k for healthy skin, hair and body.
I also got some vitamines for free from my awesome doctor friend.
I was a photo model few years ago. I used to make awesome pictures then, i still do now but ocaasionally. Sometimes i get items for free after my phtosession. I have received lots of cloths jewelries shoes for free as a gift after my shoot.
As a young aspiring model, my advise to you is always be polite, look decent and fabulous. In case a photographer does not have money to offer you as compensation, ask for jewelries , cloths etc.
I hope you are inspired
P.s i am always looking for photographers to help me expand my portfolio, please feel free to contact me if you do like to work with me.
I love you.

How I Treat Myself as No. 1
Being good to yourself sounds easier than it looks, many of us are living lives that are busy, complicated and we often spend time juggling many balls, I for one know that is my life on a regular basis, however I find that I can end up feeling like a headless chicken and there are moments where I just need to take a step to strip back and really focus on ME, so here are some of the ways that I like to treat myself just like I should.
1. CREATE A VISION
Mood boarding, is something I’ve just started doing, if I’m not clear on what I want and how I want to be treated how can I be successful at being good to myself. I love to get a range of magazines, websites and experiences to put an ideal vision of what I want my life to look like. This is a recent activity but one I know will make a massive difference to me. From how having a vision on how I want my time to be spent to how I want my body to look nothing is off limits, as they say without a vision the people perish, and I really believe it is a fundamental step to being good to ones self. I also use Pininterest nd Tumblr website to get inspirational ideas and I do creat moardboard on these sites. I love to buy art works with motivational text on it.
2. EAT WELL
Many of you know that I’m a massive foodie, it helps me be more organised as well as takes up a lot less time than thinking about what to eat every day. My favourites are all thing’s grilled chicken, fish along with lots of beans, rice, sweet potatoes and broccoli.
3. LOOK AFTER MY BODY
We all know that we should be doing this but are we, I have found that having a gym membership often meant that I had money going down the drain constantly, however having just decided on a personal trainer it has really taken my exercising experience to the next level. I also exercise myself. I do 100 sit ups every morning when I wake up and also sit ups before going to bed. It makes me feel agile and ready for the day.
4. LOOK AFTER MY SKIN
My skin is something that has recently taken a back seat with me lately as my priorities have been elsewhere. But with noticeably seeing changes that I wasn’t so happy with I realised that a new routine needed to be put in place Asap. I love the idea of having a simple skin care regimen that doesn’t require more steps then are necessary. From time to time I use acids such as glycolic and lactic to deal with my stubborn skin care issues, but obviously I can’t use these daily. With the new range from NIVEA it has been a great option for consistent cleansing that is deep but also provides touchable softness. I’ve used the makeup wipes for those lazy nights, the cream wash for a quick in shower facial wash and the lotion for a gentle cleansing massage. When my skin feels right all seems right with the world.
5. PRACTICING MINDFULNESS
Finally mindfulness is my final piece of the being good to myself mantra. Taking that time in the morning, to reflect and be thankful make’s all the difference. Everyone deserves 5 minutes to take a break to reflect, don’t you think? 5 inutes journal by Mimi Ikonn is also a great book you can use for your personal reflection.
I created a video below on my skin care regime and also advice on how to be happier. I hope you are inspired.
Stay fabulous.
I love you!!!

I always get all oily on myT-Zone. That area of your face that makes up your forehead, nose, and chin is often the problem area for acne and oily skin. But even if you don’t break out there, you still might get a little shiny once in a while. It’s a delicate balance between achieving that much sought-after dewy look and looking totally reflective, so try these simple steps to get rid of unwanted shine and get you looking your best.
Here are some tips on how to get that oiliness off your face.
1. Use salt and water to wash your face on daily basis, that will help to reduce
the oiliness on your face.
2. Se blotting paper to dab on your face especially if you have makeup on, you
may want to dab gently on your face.
3. Avoid eating too much fatty food such as chips etc
4. Do you get oil on your T zone? What is your favourite trick to et rid of it?
5. Thanks for stopping by.
