Apple shaped structures carry a lot of weight around the tummy area. This often makes it look as thought there is no defined waist line. Your goal therefore should be to look for tops that will help create this effect or draw attention to other parts of your body like your limbs.

I've also got a photographer if you'd like to do your photo shoot sessions. Our quality speaks for itself!!!

kourt: I'm interested in these product line but please can you list out the products in this range pleaseee, the ones in the picture above are not big enough, I can hardly see what is written there.

Hi Kourt. The products available in the tea tree range include the oil, face wash, toner, skin clearing lotion and night Lotion. You may decide to use a combination of all or select and combine with other items depending on what you need

Brushes are useful. And you can use them in more ways than just the purpose they’re usually marketed for, because who says that a blush brush can only be used to apply blush? Hogwash! A brush is just a tool, right? And like any tool, it can be used for different things.

Think of your brushes as tools, and look for new and different ways to use them.

When I started really getting into makeup, I also started investing in brushes. I did my research and picked up the best brushes I could afford, only using them according to each brush’s official description. Eyeliner brushes for liner, blending brushes for blending, and so on like that. It never occurred to me to use my brushes for more than their designated tasks…

Until it finally did. Now, I use a single brush for more than one purpose.
Play with your brushes, because you never know when you’ll find one that excels at doing something it wasn’t originally designed to do.

Customers can now go to Divine Touch Boutique at Suite 8, Abuja Shopping Complex, Funmilayo R. Kuti Street Area 3 Garki Abuja for The Body Shop products

Cheap doesn't always mean fake...

If you can afford the MACs and Estee Lauders of beauty, there are smaller brands that pack a punch in their beauty products. When cheap is a problem is when you have to question if it's original, don't you think?

Hi guys, hope everyone had a great weekend?

Today's tip is on how to create the perfect foundation base...

Choosing the right foundation :
1. Test dark and light foundation colours nearest to your complexion at the side of your jawline
2. Take a look in natural daylight as this will help show if you need to use a lighter or darker shade

Applying foundation for the perfect base:
1. Apply foundation with a sponge or brush (never fingers) to help give a flawless finish
2. Start to brush foundation from the nose outwards and into the hair line
3. Layer and build up to the desired coverage you want rather than coating the bush heavily with product in one go
4. Set foundation with matching brown powder or translucent powder

Long, full lashes open up your eyes and add instant dimension to your face. Celebrities and socialites are constantly seen batting falsies that highlight their features on the red carpet. While everyone wants lush lashes, it’s one beauty statement our readers find the most difficult to pull off. And which type...Singles? Full strips? Tell us your favourite looks on you or your fave celeb and stand a chance to win a free lash extension appliqué. You can also send in pictures too

What is a BB cream and why do you need one?

Also known as beauty creams in the western world but with origins from Korea and Japan, BB creams are promoted as an all-in-one facial cosmetic product to replace serum, moisturizer, primer, foundation, and sunblock. It can be worn on it's own, as a tinted moisturizer, over serum and moisturizer as a regular foundation, and under powder, depending on the desired amount of coverage. BB creams are the IT beauty products because they come as heavy serious multi-taskers.

Don't know where to get your BB cream? The Body Shop All-in-one BB cream that's purrrrrrfect for all skin types. I love it because it transforms from a white cream to suit ANY skin tone. Pigment-filled capsules burst when applied to the skin, releasing the colour inside. All you need to do is blend for a perfect match and an even, undetectable finish. It's makeup and skin care in one and you can choose to go without foundation if you please. Below are just a few of the qualities I enjoy from this BB cream. Makeup artists take note, this will create a flawless look on your client

-Adapts to your skin tone
-Light to medium coverage
-Even finish
-24-hour hydration
-Non-clogging

When taking out your semi-permanent lash extensions try not to force them out so you don't lose your natural lashes. Instead try rubbing in a dash of baby oil or olive oil onto the lash so that the glue weakens and separates from the lash. Leave the oil on for about 15-30 mins and using your fingers or cotton bud keep rubbing the lashes till they start to come off on their own. With this, there is no way you will lose even a strand of lashes.

Onegai: Beauty Tip: pink and purple is sooo in fashion right now, but it's a trend, and you shouldn't spend too much on it. For light skinned girls, Miss Rose lipstick in 20 (black container) and dark skinned girls can wear Wet n Wild lipstick in 521A. Both are purply-pinks with good pigmentation and wearable day and night and best, under N500. Also check out Island Beauty lipstick in Violet Orchid. For more expensive brands, try MAC Girl about town, N3700, Revlon Moondrops lipstick in Watermelon N2500 and Khuraira Cosmetics BabyDoll (price upon request).

Love this one. Thanks @onegai. Ladies I'm all for pink and purple as well. Infact that's what I'm wearing right now in celebration of TGIF!!! (Whoohoo!!!) You can bring the colours in with accessories like cocktail rings and bold earrings if you don't feel comfortable investing in the trend entirely

If you've got a semi-permanent makeup on you like tattooed brows and permanent lipsticks you might want to use sunscreen over it from time to time so that the makeup doesn't fade or change colour. Remember the higher the SPF content in your sunscreen the more protection you get from UVA/UVB radiation.

Want extra definition on your bottom lashes? Why not try loading up some mascara product on a flat firm brush like a lip brush. Transfer the poduct to your bottom lash concentrating at the roots. Apply more pressure to the roots and less as you move towards the tips. Be careful not to get the mascara product into your eye as this can be very irritating an uncomfortable

Learn how to transform your eyepencil to gel eyeliner:
First of all get a good Khol eyepencil (personally I use one from The Body Shop which is very great). Next get a lighter or match(es) for some open flame. Slightly liquefy the tip of the pencil by holding it in the flame for ONE VERY QUICK second. Wait a few seconds for the pencil to cool down and test it on the back of your hand before placing it anywhere close to your delicate eye area. The pencil can get really hot while in the flame.

This is one trick makeup artists use to create super intensely smudged eyeliner looks.

Timijo: 3 Stop using your cleansers, face creams, makeups, etc . If you are going to use these, get natural products.

I love how you took time to write this piece, well done!

As a beautician I sell beauty products from The Body Shop. Their products are all naturally inspired so chances are customers really have nothing to fear of irritation. Even their face washes and shower gels are soap free making them very mild on the skin. I discovered them in 2009 and ever since that's all i've used cause it's very mild and gentle on my skin.

Hi. I run an online shopping portal in Nigeria. I would be very interested in your findings if possible. You can email me at beautydivine.ng@gmail.com so we can discuss. Thanks

For pimples, blackheads and spots Tea tree skincare range from The Body Shop is particularly helpful. What it does is dry the skin just enough so that pimples and blackheads don't have any chance form. If your skin isn't too oily you can combine Seaweed Skincare(also from The Body Shop) with the Tea tree. The both help you balance oil production from your skin. For instance you can get the mattifying day cream in the Seaweed range.
