@ Nayah

I agree tonto Dike, does bleach? why she does it though when she has pretty features is beyond me

I agree I have seen some females(parties, family friends, and etc) with too much make-up and/or are bleaching and look like clowns; that when they take off they make up they look like dracula, sometimes you can tell they are not pretty with the make up as you said.
I'm a female lol   

@ big meat

how many people you know assess people without make up, in the western world (and any part of the world actually) cindy craford, heidi klum, naomi campbell, halle berry and kim kardashain, and etc are considered some of the hottest women in the world, but if you see them without make up they are not as glamorous or most pretty as people hype, but some of them still have their beauty shown through though, example's

Halle berry(with or without make up)

http://zunaxx.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Halle-Berry-Without-make-up-photo-gallery.jpg

she is not all that(but still decent or semi-pretty looking) without make up but is sill considered one of the most beautiful women in the world(debatable)

@ ronkebp

OK lol  , anybody actually from the list on top you can put, your list has beautiful women

@ ronkebp

are you a nollywood actress that you put yourself as number 10? not a joke just a question

any way even though Jackie and Nadia are both Ghanian, they are the exception since both are the only Ghanian actresses really recognized as some of the top actresses in Nollywood, but Nadia hasn't really been in Nollywood movies as much lately but Jackie has and is considered Nigeria's favorite Ghanian actress: http://nigeriafilms.com/news/7784/8/behind-the-scenes-at-mike-ezunronye-wedding.html  but nonetheless they are beautiful, nice top ten 

@ pinkrex

True but all of them use make up or cosmetics, this is 2011 it's like that in every movie industry in the world.

@ kizito96

any beauty actually, most of these women are beautiful with or without makeup or cosmetics but all of them use cosmetics in general, so what difference does it make?

@hackney

those actresses are beautiful(and despite the fact that they are Ghanian) they are not nollywood stars or actresses but Ghollywood stars. Martha Ankomah has never really been in a Nigerian or nollywood movie and Juliet ibraheim rarely stars in Nollywood movies, mostly ghollywood movies(isn't she the one who bashed Nollywood at one time and refused to do Nollywood movies; any way I'm not saying she is all to blame, nollywood had faults to in it but as a result she stayed away from Nollywoof for a awhile as a result: http://nigeriafilms.com/news/7914/17/juliet-ibrahim-sues-nigerian-producer.html ), and my question was about nollywood actresses? so those two don't count

but as I said they are beautiful, so I will add them in the list(not top ten list though, since they are not top nollywood actresses or really nollywood actresses)

@bunmioguns

mercy Johnson has a beautiful body & she one of the top ten talented Nollywood actresses but her face is not the prettiest(but she isn't ugly either) or beat the faces of the women in the list as far as I am concerned, but if you think she is your top ten then its ok.

@ibkaye

Yvonne Nelson & Martha ankomah are Ghanian(if it was Jackie Appiah then I would agree to a extent), and their more prevalent in Ghanian movies then nollywood movies(I never seen Martha Ankomah in a Nollywood movie), and yvonne okoro is half Nigerian but hasn't been in any nollywood movie really, shes a ghollywood star. So those three currently don't count. The rest though are fine, they are your top ten any way, which is fine

@londoner

Thanks, but Yvonne okoro is always labeled Ghanian(especially since that's where she was raised) despite the fact though that her father is Nigerian(but shes half-Nigerian nonetheless), any way I guess she can be part of the top 20 list then or the next top 10 in a few years the more she starts doing more Nollywood movies.

Chelsea Ada Ezericha & Yvonne Jegede are beautiful, but they are newbies; I suspect in a few years chelsea will be up in that top ten list with yvonne Jegede but theres nothing wrong in you choosing Ufuoma, yvonne and chelsea to be in your top ten list though.

I have seen some sites who would make their own opinion on who is number one and who is number two and etc in the top ten list but most of the time, some or a few in the list I don't agree with(either in being in the list or the number they are in) or the ones I expect there are not in the list, examples:
http://abagond./2008/02/28/the-most-beautiful-nigerian-actresses/
http://www.therichest.org/entertainment/sexiest-nigerian-actresses/

to me this is the top ten(English Nollywood/Nigerian actresses) I have seen over the years till now(2011), but in no particular order though:

BUT some of these women in the list now or currently won't be in that list forever




To me the women I see  that we should keep a eye on in the near future that will be in this list as Nollywood progresses many years(or a decade) from now is:
* Chelsea Ada Ezerioha
https://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/hprofile-ak-snc4/hs322.snc4/41573_394546100364_6395742_n.jpg
* Jackie Appiah(to me she will be the first Ghanian woman to be in the list in the future, the more she gains more ground in Nollywood; and she has been voted Nigeria's favorite Ghanian actress)
* Yvonne okoro(if she makes a mark in Nollywood like where Jackie is going now, then I do see her in the near future in that list)

Im not saying they are the only beautiful ones though, their are many others but not as well known yet, retired, are in my top 20, or are not Nigeria's NOLLYWOODS top actresses and etc, examples:

http://nollywood.codewit.com/nollywoodgallery/var/albums/Oge-Okoye-Collections/oge_okoye%20%283%29.jpg?m=1304437917
* Mercy Johnson(she is not ugly but not my top ten when it comes to facial beauty but maybe your top ten in beauty but I feel she is top ten in one of the top talented actresses and has the best body among the nollywood actresses, beating even genevieve, excepy lillian and omotola who also have curvy bodies like mercy
http://4.bp..com/-nFlCXi9EbRw/TdlHwOPWXRI/AAAAAAAAAiU/x8gVraCur40/s1600/mercy-johnson.jpg

https://www.underdarock.com/files/2010/09/Nse.jpg

http://audionigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/bisi-ibidapo.jpg



Only a few of These actresses are well known in Nollywood(and some are Nollywood actresses in a way) but they are not Nigerian or in Nollywood very much(the only exception to the list is Jackie appiah & Nadia Buari to an extent), so they weren't on my top ten list but they are beautiful though:
* Sana Kanu(Sierra leone Nollywood actress)

http://www.ghanamma.com/2011/01/14/martha-ankomah/

any way this is just my opinion, but I want to hear from people who are your top 10 most beautiful Nollywood actresses in your opinion?

You mean: Are these girls the ugliest Nollywood actresses? actress=female actor=male

well they are not prettiest at all but they are not hideous either, but their voices don't make it any better but mercy Johnson's face isn't all that pretty either. However Mercy Johnson has a good curvy body and her voice is fine so I guess its not as bad as these two you mentioned but nonetheless, how do we know who is the ugliest in nollywood really?

when it comes to Nadia buari well her and her sister look like their mother and are beautiful in their own way. When it comes to her being mixed or just light skinned black, well before I didn't know. Some people used to say she is mixed and some used to say she is just light skinned black with Black Ghanian parents. The ones who said she was mixed used to make assumptions that her mother was Arab and father was Ghanian without proof[b] but later it was confirmed that her[/b] mother is Black Ghanian(as you can see in the pictures) and her biological father maybe Arab or mixed race Ghanian(which is still a debate). here's a video of her and her mother:
