I would see a doctor, they have12 different creams for acne and they are superb, they prescribe the best type to use based on your skin condition so you might not be necessarily using what someone else is using. Im using 'duac' once daily gel and even after my acne days, i still stick to it. so definitely see a doctor

nike4luv is right, you should probably see a doctor. I have a friend who uses Clindoxl and Isotrex and it worked wonders on her skin. Timi1990, try asking your doctor about those two medications. Hopefully, those medications can help with your acne.

Yes I will as the time comes, Its a gradual process I think. When you come in, you want to come in with all you,ve got.
To be able to get recognized.
thanks for the suggestion.

Good, this is the sort of determination I wanna see. Can't wait to see your desins on the runway. By the way, do you have a line if so, what is the name?

For some people it work for others, it doesn't. It depends on how you rock it.

Oh Yes I mean from Liberia. When she came to an expo in Minneapolis, she told me girl, just go for what you believe.
Close your eyes and move forward. She inspired me continue my apparel design school. Though I'm not done yet, but i've seen a lot already.
I've been to some fashion show here in Minneapolis and also some in Chicago, so I really understand what you meant about the Vogue Africa thing.

Eh ya, I wish you lots of success in your fashion endeavors. Momolu really seems like a nice woman. I haven't met her in person but I've been to some events where she was at and she seems pretty cool. Have you ever thought of getting involved in New York African Fashion Week? A close family friend of mine was in it last season and I was so proud of her.

toytuns:
Yep, heard about that too.
If you saw the fashion runway season 5, where we have Korto Momolu fro Ghana. It was very glaring that her design were way more sell-able. Even when she came back for the all star.

Momolu is from Liberia. I've seen her work her in the New York and hands down, the woman has got talent.

Why must we glorify mediocrity. Assuming the pics were amazing, then we can say "oh racism at work", but they are not so I guess we will never know!
The first picture is just a pisstake in my opinion but with lots of efforts and hardwork, he will get there

If you consider mediocrity as Anna Wintour pulling Naomi Campbell from the cover of Vogue and replacing her with a white model then what is actual racism? Its a know fact that the woman doesn't like putting black models on the covers let alone creating a Vogue Africa. Just because there have been little sprinkles of black models on the cover of Vogue doesn't mean that its not racism.

We Africans face a lot when it comes to the western world. I think its about race, i think it's about them protecting their image ans also its about money, Their fear of Vogue Africa getting well recognize than theirs. The guy lives abroad and has photo shot a lot of celebrities.
So his potential of breaking through in the industry is great.

He's already known in the industry. Its obvious that he has talent and that he does good work. It's a combination or racism, capitalism, and fear of the unknown undecided

. Its sad. Some of those people at the events I go to with my sister, the people will sit there and smile to your face while at the same time talk bad about you tongue

Thanks a lot, i really appreciate wat u'v done for me. Hav decided to buy that of vitacost website, but i'll like to know if it will be delivered to me in lagos. Cuz most foreign website dnt like nigerian mastercard. .

No problem wink

. Hmmm, I have no idea if it would be delivered to Lagos since I've never ordered my soaps online. Each time I buy the soap it is directly from the store. You could try e-mailing them so you could ask them if they ship to Nigeria. If they say no, you still have the option of ordering from Amazon. On the link that I sent you, there is a page that sells the soap for 3 in a pack. Lemme know how things go or if you need more help.

I don't blame them jare, they are just protecting their brand's name.

I just checked the website, you pasted the wrong pictures LOL. There are some amazing pictures on there, I love the jungle fever & the grace-jones-look-alike ones. Good luck to the dude

Hmmm, I remember hearing about this months ago.

Protecting their image? That is by far the lamest excuse I have ever heard. Its all about race!!! Look, I've been to those fashion week parties and behind all the glitz and glam is nothin' but racism. Smh, you wouldn't believe the sort of conversations I've overheard people having. It's a damn shame. Oh by the way here's a link to another article written about it. I love that site by the way, I check it out ever week when they have new articles >>> http://cocoandcreme.com/2010/07/vogue-africa-rejected-by-conde-nast . Anway, Condé Nast has always had a reputation for their underhanded racism.
