^Does that include beauty products If yes, then I would suggest a TOP quality Mascara and Eyeliner. These 2 are the only beauty products I use, I buy both items 4 times a year. Beauticians recommend that Mascara be replaced every 2 months, so you should have a good turn around and your customers would become your regulars. |

^^ Never used Mac. I am not a great user of Make-up so never really try anything expect Mascara and Eyeliner. For the 1st still love Lancome, I am very hairy so my eyelashes are thick so I hate heavy duty Mascara. Mascara a bit of a fashion thing at this time, so best get the advice of those under 25 so that you can cover the full age range. Eyeliner, nothing better than BOBBI BROWN GEL EYELINER, never needs re-appling so no need to cart around make-up bags and great for hot climates. Nail vanish now that's very hot so if you keep up with the trends you can sell lots. |

Re: by Nobody: 1:10am On Feb 24, 2010 |
Stock up with products from MAC, Napoleon, L'oreal, Victoria Secret beauty line, Wet and Wild. Those are fabulous beauty products and are really good for the skin. I dunno if they have those in Nigeria yet. If not let me know and maybe i could hook you up. 1 Like |

Mac will definitely be on the sorta expensive side but surely stock up on those. I'd advise Wet and Wild like someone said as it is alright product without being too expensive. Also nail polish like Sally Hansen plus Wet and Wild has some alright ones as well. Revlon, Covergirl and likes. I have no idea how popular those are back home. |

chaircover: Wet and Wild is pretty good, I use thier eye liner and mascara and it last all day, the eye shadow is pretty cool as well. It's sad naija had Mac counterfieted already cos it's a really good product and I've been using their lip liner,foundation and press powder. it's a bit on the pricey side though. Victoria Secret is not that crazy expensive though, they have good bargain in store and online especially when u buy in buck.There's a Victoria Secret shop in the mall were I work here in LA so if you want we could work something out, I normally send stuff to my aunty in the Uk. When are you aiming at going to Naija? Better still there is 2-3 days delivery process from here to the UK so that's a possibility as well. Lemme know babe. |

chaircover: What are the stuff you want to buy? I'm working morning shift tomorrow (8hrs from now) so I can go after work and talk with their manager and see if they can offer any form of discount or if i have to get it online and stuff then we can go from there. Shoot me an email if you wish vivluv03@yahoo.com |

Re: by queenesthr(f): 3:14pm On Feb 24, 2010 |
jellybean: These products are all over the place in Nigeria. I have the impression though that Nigerian ladies spend more on hair products than skin. |
Re: by platinumnk(f): 4:01pm On Feb 24, 2010 |
The best time to shop at V Secret is during their annual sales when most stuff is 75% off. |
Re: by Nobody: 8:42pm On Feb 24, 2010 |
platinumnk: Yea although the problem is the international shipping especially when in bulk. |
Re: by MrCrackles(m): 8:44pm On Feb 24, 2010 |
Topic. . . TURA ZARINA MAKARI SHIRLEY. . . . .Them stuff sell like hot cake, going by the rate at which ladies are peeling and bleaching . . . |
Re: by Nobody: 8:47pm On Feb 24, 2010 |
anything with "quinone" in it. ie bleaching/toning products. keep sales to a minimum however- to reduce your risk of legal troubles. victoria's secret is an american company- it doesnt have a global presence yet. But good lingerie doesnt necessarily have to come from only one name brand, though name recognition sells. I'd say also try to shop around for other quality and affordable ones. |
Re: by Nobody: 9:26pm On Feb 24, 2010 |
tpia.: Victoria Secret also have beauty products that rock, we were talking about the beauty products not lingerie. |
Re: by Nobody: 12:55am On Feb 25, 2010 |
^^ oh, ok. I only know them for the lingerie. didnt notice they have other things. i agree- clinique, maybelline, l'oreal, covergirl are among the most popular. maxfactor too. Going by what's being stocked at most of the major stores. 1 Like |
Re: by Sissy3(f): 4:02am On Feb 25, 2010 |
some women tend to be a royal fan of Mary Kay ? |
Re: by sexyLeamon(f): 4:08am On Feb 25, 2010 |
MrCrackles:haha! get out of here! are you a lady? @chaicover, My favourite cosmetics brands are, 1. MAC - Infallible. Brilliant products, amazing value for money, perfection. 2. NARS - Beautiful foundations and eyeshadows. Expensive, but worth the money you pay. 3. Clinique - Amazing very natural makeup high quality. 4. Benefit - Totally unique brand, well priced and adorable products. 5. Lancome - The best brand for Mascara |
Re: by Nobody: 7:31am On Feb 25, 2010 |
~Sissy~: very true. But you have to be an agent to sell mary kay stuff. @ topic throwing in some hair products might also draw traffic? Extensions, etc. |
