correct me if i'm wrong, somebody, but is an actor not also an artiste? They shoulda tagged it 'musician', not artiste.

we'll be watching

People keep shouting "the country isn't good", "our leaders are bad", "the hardships are to blame for crime". You would think that when they get to a "good" country, they would find honest means of livelihood. But no. They just continue in their dirty ways. This just shows that our problems aren't situational; they're psychological. If only we all could look past the excuses and blame and just focus on making it.

yes. The active ingredients have been proven to greatly reduce the appearance of blemishes such as acne scars, melasma, hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, birth marks and stretch marks.

Our Lactic Acid Resurfacing Milk is formulated with all the goodness of Alpha Hydroxy Acids to help speed up the skin's resurfacing process thereby revealing newer, healthier, unblemished skin. It's available in the 10% Face Milk and the 12% Body Milk. Email afroditeskincare@yahoo.com

Try our 10% Lactic Acid Resurfacing Milk. It's specially formulated with Lactic Acid, an Alpha Hydroxyl Acid with the ability to unglue the top layers of skin, causing them to fall off, revealing newer, unblemished skin beneath. Email afroditeskincare@yahoo.com

Our regimen is designed to help effectively reduce the appearance of stretch marks, acne scars, wound scars, chicken skin, the effects of sun damage, the effects of skin damage from inappropriate use of skin products, eczema, and a lot of other skin conditions. The healing of these conditions usually requires two stages; some kind of exfoliation (manual/mechanical e.g body scrubs, microdermabrasion laser etc; and chemical)
Our regimen comprises of two products;
1. 12% Lactic Acid Resurfacing Body Milk (150ml)

Lactic acid is an alpha hydroxyl acid used in skin care as a chemical exfoliant. Our lactic acid milk benefits skin by dissolving dead skin that accumulates on the surface of functioning skin. These dead cells lead to dry, dull skin and can prevent your skin treatments from working properly because they can’t be absorbed. Removing this accumulation is one of the most important parts of a skin care regimen
Also, at a concentration of 12%, our lactic acid milk also produces a mild peeling effect. It does this by actually ungluing the cells, separating them and causing them to slough off to reveal the new skin beneath. Peeling removes damaged tissue to expose the skin below that is in better condition. It is a powerful technique to reduce wrinkles, age spots and other discoloration, and acne scars. The peeling effect our milk gives is very mild and gradually removes skin damage to reveal younger, healthier looking skin beneath.

2. 10% Lactic Acid Resurfacing Face Milk (100ml)
Because skin on the face is thinner and more sensitive than body skin, the 12% Lactic Acid Body Milk may be inappropriate for some users without prior introduction to Alpha hydroxyl Acids. This is why we have formulated the 10% Lactic Acid Face Milk to safely provide the benefits of this alpha hydroxyl acid without producing harsh results.
The lower concentration of lactic acid inn this face milk makes it ideal to be safely used on the face without causing irritation.

3. Skin Regenerating Elixir with Vitamin A, E and PP (150ml)
Formulated with shea butter, sweet almond oil, coconut oil, olive oil, apricot kernel oil and fortified with added Vitamins E and Nicotinic acid amide (Vitamin PP), this skin elixir helps the resurfacing skin to reproduce healthier skin cells with a normal level of collagen to reduce the appearance of stretch marks and other skin blemishes. Vitamin PP has also been proven to help combat acne.

This combination of products will help to produce positive results with consistent use.

I’ve read many threads with complaints from people who have used mixed creams sold by “mixers” in Yaba, Lagos Island Lekki, Ikeja, Surulere and other places. The end result of usage of these products is usually damaged skin or results that are worse off than what the user started out with. The reasons for this fall into two main categories;
1. Use of dangerous/toxic chemicals
Many of these products claim to produce fast results in the shortest possible time (I’ve heard of some that claim to lighten in a couple of days!). The truth is, you may get your result in the time promised, but at what price? What many people are blithely unaware of is the high level of toxic chemicals contained in these products. Sure you’ll get lightened skin in “no time”, but you’re killing yourself slowly with the overload of hydroquinone, mercury and steroids.
Now, hydroquinone in itself is not harmful as long as it is in amounts of 2% or lower as approved by the FDA for over-the-counter products. But 2% hydroquinone is not potent enough to “lighten you in seven days” No ma’am, it isn’t. The products that promise this are known to contain hydroquinone levels in excess of 20%! Yes, as high as that. The side effects of this are numerous. Let us count the ways;
allergic reactions like rashes and hives, swelling of mouth and lips, excessive reddening of skin, formation of blisters on the skin, appearance of blue and black pigments on the skin (the condition is called exogenous ochronosis) and increased sensitivity to the harmful rays of the sun which in turn increases the chances of skin cancer. And these are just a few of them.
Mercury, also known as mercurous chloride, poisons the bloodstream, and toxic when used in cosmetics because it is readily absorbed. You know the end results? Kidney, brain, nervous and gastrointestinal disorders; skin rashes, mood swings, memory loss, and muscle weakness. What’s more? Prolonged contact with mercury also leads to skin rashes, mood swings, memory loss, and muscle weakness.
Last, but by no means the least, Steroids. Excessive usage of steroids can lead to blood-containing blisters on skin, burning and itching of skin, increased skin sensitivity, lack of healing of skin condition, numbness in fingers, painful, red, or itchy, pus-containing blisters in hair follicles, raised, dark red, wart-like spots on skin, especially when used on the face, skin infection, thinning of skin with easy bruising

2. Good Manufacturing Practice
For producers of skin care products, GMP is a necessity. It simply means that the utmost care must be taken in ensuring that products are produced using ingredients that are of the highest quality, with sterile equipment and in the cleanest of environments. The raw materials must be within their prescribed shelf life and must be free of adulteration and impurities. The equipment used in creating these products must be free from bacteria and other pollutants and the environment must meet the strictest hygienic standards. But in reality (or at least with many of these would-be cosmetologists) do not adhere to these requirements. Expired actives are used, oils and solutions are exposed to environmental pollutants and hygiene is not regarded in many of the makeshift laboratories.
So even if the raw materials aren’t toxic in themselves, exposure to these elements will affect the purity and safety of the end product. In the end, you have bacteria, metal pollutants, etc, reacting with the active ingredients present in these mixtures and producing something else entirely. Furthermore, many of these creations do not use chelating agents. In simple terms, a chelating agent is one that prevents two elements from reacting with each other and producing a third unknown and potentially harmful element. Sort of like preventing hydrogen and oxygen from combining to form water are preventing blue and yellow from combining to form green. In many of these products, the absence of a chelating agents leaves the active ingredients to freely react with each other to form a third compound that will almost always be harmful to your skin and your health. Chelating agents also perform other actions; they reduce rancidity, promote stability and reduce oxidization to ensure a safe product.
Scared? You should be.
If you are or have been using products based on these ingredients, now is the time to stop it.
There are safe and effective non hydroquinone, non-mercury and non-steroid solutions to freckles, melasma, age spots, uneven skin tone, dark underarms, acne scars, inner thighs, knees, elbows. Products that contain natural ingredients like licorice extract, alpha arbutin, nicotinamide, vitamin e, vitamin a, alpha hydroxy acids and beta hydroxy acids are considered safe for skin lightening.

@JayBrown
It's sooo convenient to act self-righteous when it's a man at the butt of it. But here's where your argument is faulted:
1. A sane person would communicate with her spouse. How many of the guys who've fukced other girls "communicated" with their spouses about problems and issues before going out? Man have gone out for many a flimsy excuse
2. No amount of wrong doing can make cheating right. Tell that to your mates who do it every time, wrong-doing or no.
3. The reason why she cheated is irrelevant. If it happens to be because of something he did or didn't do, and he doesn't try to find out and correct it, you think his next woman isn't going to discover those very same flaws and treat him in the exact same way? He's just gonna get trapped in one huge vicious cycle.
So dear OP, I ask that you ignore posts from people like Jaybrown and channel all that energy into positive things like making things work again. Getting a woman to fall in love with you can be a beautiful thing, but getting her to fall in love with you again is one of the most rewarding things ever.

Contact us now and let's help create your dream nursery.

it's so easy to get angry and start plotting revenge, but all these stratagems you have laid out are pointless and will only lead to more heartbreak for you. I assure you, you cannot win this battle. a woman in a situation like this will only fight back and a she can hit hard.
you should have a little soul searching and ask yourself what you could have done to get her to this point. what is your marriage like? studies have shown that women begin to act like this only to get attention or when they have been starved of attention and have given up on trying. it might be your marriage has been going downhill without you noticing (and it does happen; men are usually blind and clueless to this)
have a heart-to-heart with her and ask;
1. does she still see in you the same man you were before you got married?
2. is there something she thinks you've stopped or started doing which she doesn't like?
with a little probing (and don't be hostile) you'll be surprised how much pent-up negativity she might have towards you which she can only translate by focusing her attention towards someone else.
men can cheat on a whim but women usually need a strong reason to stray. help her reveal that reason, whatever it is. and work towards being a better man for her.
I hope you calm down enough to listen.
goodluck.
