fruits that are really great for your skin. You probably have some of them in
your kitchen, it’s about time to put them to use more.
Lemon
Some people
suffer with uneven skin tone, sun burns from over exposure to the sun. A
natural way to get back your skin tone can be achieved by drinking freshly
squeezed lemon in water. It is rich in vitamin C which helps to improve
collagen production.
Womenswear label Funke Adepoju,
formerly called Phunk Afrique, released their second collection, for the year.
A Very Floral Dream promises lots of florals and while it
does deliver, it does so in a not so predictable way. Designer Funke
Adepoju explains that she was inspired by her love for all things
floral which translates here as laser cut fabric and bright colours and
not the prints one might expect. The cuts resemble petals while red, orange and
pink call to mind bright blooms. Paler hues and metallic accents also feature
with brighter shades making the cut outs pop.
The brand will
showcase its Spring/Summer collection at the upcoming Lagos Fashion
& Design Week 2015 in October. Here are some photos from the collection.... ENJOY

You’re tired of the one lipstick
trend? Well try Ombre. The Ombre lips trend is back, we remember back then in
the 90's when our older sisters, mum and aunts used to rock this lippy, some of
us actually did do it back then, it's back in a more improvised and sexier way.
"Ombre" means fade. Ombre lips are two or more lipstick colours or
shades blended so that they fade into one another.
What you would need to achieve this:
Lip liner.
Lip gloss or Lip stick.
Note: The shade used as lip
liner needs to be darker that the lip-gloss/lipstick shade.
Step 1:
Line your lips with the darker colour
of your choice.
Step 2:
Apply the lighter colour of your
choice to the centre of your lips.
Step 3:
Pat your lips together to blend the colours.
Be careful when using black lip liner,
be sure to blend in well so you don't end up looking scary.
Here are some photos of Ombre lip
colours;
