Lovely, I can see how beauty of Yoruba women was before. compare to these days where u will see a girl in the first day and ur d*ck will be saluting, seeing her the following day with "no make up" and u will be begging the d*ck to at least stand.

I wish you have those marks dear, girls with such are in high demand! It's classic! Pre independence swag! Going out with such is like riding a 1959 Pontiac Bonneville Convertible or any classic car for that matter, heads must turn. Sincerely, do you have those marks? If yes, send me a PM immediately.

strong cheekbones, A petite nose, less prominent
forehead, finer eyebrows and a strong immune system. Above all, keeping it real and natural keeps my blood hot any day any time. My allegiance and loyalty to the african woman is top notch.

When yoruba women were beauty personified and well-groomed. Now all they do is bleach to compete with Igbo ladies, stab nd cheat on their partners.

Traditional values gone pftt!

You know not, neither do you understand that true beauty is the peace in your eyes when you are looked at, not pancake.

When you see pictures like this you come to realise that we aren't much different from each other. These can be Igbo, Yoruba, Fulani, Hausa, Calabar women. The faces are the same only the attires differ. I wish we could appreciate each others differences and this world would be a much better place
exactly sister, we all have our peculiar mode of dressing.
