Jummy, my friend triggered me to learn nail artistry and fortunately for me, no one does in my street. I stopped selling undies and faced my nail business. Fortunately, my boss was a makeup artist. I remembered our first makeup project together. We powdered the bride's nails a day before and all these oversabi-lagos big girls who thought life ends in Lagos who had badmouthed my boss was the first to hailed us.
We did made her up and she was happy, she later endorsed my bosses'service. Well, this triggered my passion to make people appear more beautiful. I wanted to try something new, I wanted to be more creative and that started my quest for makeup artistry. I enrolled through a free skill acquisition (YBE) where you would pay three thousand naira for certificate par skill through my church and my doctor friend, Ade and after two weeks, spending over fifty thousands for materials and practicals on beads and makeup artistry, I graduated with two certificates.

MY CHALLENGES
I rented a container closed to my mum's shop immediately I completed my training in August 2015. I was a graduate as at then and as an educationist, no school was ready to pay me more than fifteen thousand naira. I started my biz and it was not hard getting customers because I was already a nail artist in my street. I displayed all the beads I made during my tainimgs and most people was ready to pay well because to them, I was a young girl.I sold off most of my beads at cheaper prices, prices not enough to the materials. Most of the gele I was tying as at then were either free or at very lower prices. Well sha, I closed down the shop when I got fed up... I sha would not be doing free services whereby a woman I volunteered to teach was making thousands tying them. I was doing makeups home services as low as five hundred naira and it was not helping matters.
I vowed in the year 2016 to make things alright.... I wanted to stop being an amateur makeup artist... I wanted to go deep and make cool cash... Being posted to servey fatherland in Edo state changed everything about my career...
My career, my path....

Sorry if my story is not making sense yet.... Just chillax make we walk into the makeup street....

If you're ready to learn the basics of makeover artistry too... Just grab a seat and relax....
