Hello Guys,

After getting three of the L.A Girl matte liquid lipsticks i just had to look for more colors to try out. The colors are so pretty, the formula is good and the price is even better. For part 1, kindly click HERE

I was able to score some from Konga for a 6 pack deal (cant find vendor anymore) and i was gifted the 7th one.

My favorite colors of the bunch are Rebel, Fleur and Secret(dupe for Lime crime Wicked). The formula like the others are easy to work with and dry to a matte finish. I have worn about five of these and so far they haven't dissapointed. They last for hours and do not loose their color payoff.

Remember to moisturize your lips before applying these as they tend to be a tad bit drying. Overall, i really love these and will be creating more looks with them. The price ranges from N1500-N2000 depending on your preferred retailer.

WHERE TO BUY: BEAUTYKINK

PRICE: N1800

HAPPY 3RD ANNIVERSARY TO DAZZLE BEAUTIE BLOG!!!

Hi Guys!! TODAY IS MY BLOG'S THIRD YEAR RUNNING!!! I am so excited today you wouldn't believe!! I missed the first two year's because i wasn't paying attention and i promised not to this year.

Three years ago, i started this blog as a means of escape and a little haven to put down my makeup thoughts. When i published my first blog post there where but a hand full of beauty bloggers in Nigeria and i wanted to get into that community and share my passion for beauty with other enthusiasts . Three years on and it has been fun all the way. This platform has brought me in contact with amazing people and brands and i wouldn't trade it for the world. I have had my days where i felt i couldn't go on because i had nothing to say or i just wasn't feeling it because i always told myself "IF YOU LOOSE THE FUN IN DOING IT THEN STOP"... Thank God i didn't. I love blogging so much.

Over the years, i had no idea that the beauty industry would change so much in such a short time. There are more Nigerian Beauty bloggers and brands than i could count three years ago.I LOVE IT!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!! I love that i can go online and have makeup conversations with total strangers about products that i love on instagram, get makeup inspiration  and just look through tons of bridal makeup looks done by different makeup artistes here in Naija.

A few weeks back i was going to do a blog post on Beauty.... I went online and i found a ton of MEME's that spoke directly to what i wanted to say and i thought to share the ones that resonated with me the most on this special day for my bloggie.hehe 

So what is Beauty to you all? I No matter what you look like. Tall, short, fat, skinny.. Makeup is awesome but it is not everything. Do not forget to love yourself first and embrace every flaw you have. It took me a while to grow to love myself so much and i haven't stopped every since. So remember to...

I just want to thank all my blog readers who support me, send me emails and take the time to leave comments on my blog. All the makeup companies and retailers who show me love and my friends too. This blog is a little BIG part of my crazy life and i am super proud of it. We aren't where we want to be yet but we are getting there and i am enjoying the journey every step of the way.

REVIEW: NYX MATTE FINISH SPRAY

Hi Guys,

For a long time i have been faithful to my Skindinavia face setting spray and my ELF Mist and Set.I always liked how one was high end and the other drugstore but performed great for me. I use them to wet my brushes before applying pigment and remove that cakey look from  my face after a good baking. ;D. I do realize that i tend to stick to things that work for me and this makes me ignore a lot of products out there. Due to this, i recently decided to try a new setting spray that was pretty decent and the price was great . After some searching online i came across the NYX setting spray in the matte and dewy formula. Knowing my skin type, i was in no way interested in grabbing any dewy so i ordered the matte alone.

WHAT NYX SAYS-Demand Perfection! For that fresh make up look that lasts NYX Makeup Setting Sprays are lightweight and comfortable while working hard to make sure your makeup stays put. Available in a gorgeous Matte Shine-Free Finish or Dewy Fresh Glow.

DAZZLEBEAUTIE- I honestly wasn't expecting this spray to be amazing for some reason. NYX is an awesome brand and has amazing eye and lip products but i was a bit skeptical about this but i must say i am super impressed. The nozzle releases the product in a fine mist across the face so you don't feel like you are getting drenched with this.

A light spray of this over the face instantly takes off that cakey look and helps ur makeup blend into your skin better. I have used this a good number of times and my makeup held up for a good 4 hours and i blotted maybe once. This retails for $8 on the official NYX website but you can get it here between N3500-4500 depending on the retailer. I was also surprised at the tiny the bottle is. It looks a lot bigger in pictures.Not a problem tho. Overall i give this a B+. It is great but my skindinavia does last a little longer.

 Does anyone use this? What do you think?
