♥Royal♥Charm♥:



Putting aside the argument of who is beautiful and who is not....{Beauty is in the Eye Blah Blah}

So Let's put that aside

The root core of your Point....and your View shows Hypocrisy

You say Women with makeup are fake and not true African Beauty

But Painting Face Designs on your Face would Not Fall in the "Criteria" of "Make Up"?....

To "Many" of The Males of the Region...it has the same effect

Technically, Both are Ways to Enhance Beauty or Conceal an Image or Emphasize the Beauty of a Portrait

In Short....

Women who Wear Make Up Like the Ladies you Mentioned and Condemned Before are doing nothing no different than the Young Lady in The Picture.

It's All Forms of Deception.

Regardless of such motive or how advanced the technology is.

true dat, true dat

BluIvy:

Its their traditional make up made out of a natural white stone mixed with water.

Not the layering of make up done by Naija brides. I am sure their grooms do not recognise them on the wedding day. grin

that's mean... africans expecially nigerians love to be colorful. i loveee the exageration, i thinks it comes with being african. a simple look is boring don't u think?

Akshow: who says Africans are not beautiful.
Nobody. It's just that, as a result of their low self-esteem and their insecurities, Africans themselves keep imagining that others find them ugly while in reality, other races couldn't care less about their existence, let alone their looks.

I tried to be partial and loyal to Nigeria but being who I am, I just had to give it to the Ivorians!
Wooooooooooooooow!
Did you guys notice what they wear around their necks?? Pure undiluted Ivory!!!! Some had golden elephants. Check out the richness of the materials used to sew their clothes. As in, it. Screams ROYALTY! I'm droooooooooling!
Yeah, that black Ghanian beauty is LOVELY. She had on minimal make-up and her skin looks like melted dark chocolate. I guess the couple's simple attire and genuine smiles stole our hearts.
