Hey guys,
It's official #FroFriday in Curly Haired Girl parlance.
This week, I have been wearing my hair in a fro and I have totally loved every single day of it as it gave me an opportunity to be different.
Did I mention that I resumed work on Monday and so have been wearing the fro to work (don't you just love working in an Ad Agency)?
I shared all the pics on Instagram, not all of them are hawt so pls no sneers, lol. Some are quite nice actually. I also determined that I would make an effort to start wearing makeup to work always and so far it has turned out right. I will share some of the products I have been wearing on my face and what I used for LOCing my hair too. It has been well moisturised all through this week despite been very well exposed to the elements and drying airconditioning in the office.
| First day of the week monday. Face - Fashion Fair True Finish Refining foundation in Loving Mocha (can't wear the Khuraira foundation again cos I've gone darker). BM|Pro 600 single e/s as blush, Studio makeup bronzing powder to highlight & MAC Shadester to contour. Eyes - Revlon Colorstay quad I got from Konga ages ago (I reviewed it here). Packed it on this time around and the colours showed up just the way I like it. Color Tatoo kajal & Khuraira mascara for my lashes Lips - my usual, lol - light brown liner, MUD Rose Clay in the middle, topped with the Zaron lipgloss in Read My Lips. |
| Hair - Just tied up my hair to sleep, took it off when I woke, spritzed an oil & water mixture, fluffed it a bit as it was flat. Face - as in previous image Eyes - unearthed Sleek makeup iDivine palette in Sunset. Used the pearl pink for my lids, blended it out with the duochrome brown in the Revlon quad & a little black in the crease. Maybelline Color Tattoo & Smokey Eyes mascara Lips - Usual but finished with Zaron 24 Karat this time |
| Hair - same as above Face - same as above Eyes - same as above. But used the green in the palette. Lined my eyes with the Sacred Artistry liquid liner pen Lips - Dark brown pencil and Lancome nude pink lipstick in the centre of my lips. |

For my LOC method, I used water, Natural Nigerian leave-in conditioner, Lemon grass essential oil in Shea Butter oil and African Naturalistas Hair Butter (will post a picture of all these pictures to my facebook page. I got the NN leave-in & Lemon Grass oil from a bag I won at the Natural Hair session during SMW2014. Now that reminds me of the LOADS of posts I owe you guys).
What are your thoughts on my Afro Week?
