Hello,

Love her stare and the whole look. BUT loose the cigarette, it doesnt't go at all. Why is her complexion like that, it would work better if its her natural complexion. Love the black background

The "50 tricks to running a successful fashion label" is kind of scattered together and not as appealing to the eye. Re-arrange it

I didnt get " You! but better how to turn from pretty to beautiful" it doesnt sound right.

Divos Nigeria's top diva "De Men and then the 20,   whats that. i totally didnt get it

the font and color for the "CELEB' under "Nigerian celeb reveal secrets" makes it unreadable. Its placed on her hair so its not as visible to the eye. Make it a darker color and change the font to something smaller.

In all i think you just need to re-arrange some of the topics for clarity because most readers skim through magazine covers first to see if its of any interest. I love the background and the coloring but make the lettering visible.

I think people should come to the terms that smoking is not fahionable at all, it causes health hazards and it can kill. Her lipstick application is too cheap for me.

Lose the stick, it serves no purpose and gives a negative impression. The rest of it is ok though the overall quality could be improved.

The desaturated skin makes her look like a vampire, but her nails are ok - just natural.

Seems that they should have at least spent some money and hire a manicurist before the photoshoot, if that's her true eye color then it does not blend with the overall scheme of the photo. Is this a new magazine?

I did like the way the color of the eyes blended with the hair, but pls get the nails done as soon as possible.

Photography effect for vampires, you mean?  It's not make-up, it's photoshop work.

The cig. should go and probably she won't have to show those nails Wink Some editing is defnly necessary too.


Anyway, I like the way her shirt is hanging.Tongue

her hair looks like it's been on her hair for months especially the lower parts

nothing wrong with the ciggy just the way she was holding it, she should hold it like a real pro

i quite like the pic actually

i like the colour effect, i think the point was to highlight the hair and eyes,

i think they were aiming for the morning hair, just outta bed look,  was achieved to an i extent i think
it would have been way cooler if the ciggy was lit with a little stream of smoke from her lips,  the nails and the way she was holding the ciggy is all wrong

the ciggy and the stumpy nails. Her hands are also crooked.  Grin Grin

am serious tho. . . . .  if she gets her nails done and manages to straithen her fingers then the sultry look will be complete.

Also rub some oil on her skin make it look a lil bit more glossy. Or if you're going for the pasty look then make her look a lil bit more darker with flash.

The picture is nice. Both the model and the photographer did a good job. However the lip make up was totally off it. There was a kind of reflection in the eyes that i did not like. The colouring is nice. Great Job all the same.


Ciao!!!

I hate that Nigerians copy everything, and its always the bad things they are copying. We forget the power that the media has on young kids. Haven't we learnt that from abroad societies. Still we put something like that on the cover of a magazine. A little girl will now think that it is cool too smoke.

umm.
the only thing i can say is her hand.
It's kind of weird looking in the photo and the cigarette isn't liked by most.

But other then that, it's beautiful  Grin
