Herbert Victoria, an emerging designer in San Francisco introduces African West Spring/Summer 2014 Collection. The inspiration came from a book on contemporary fashion in West Africa. What was intriguing were the differences yet similarities between Africans and Americans in fashion. Americans buy into designer brands to express social status while Africans wear more extravagant fabrics to express their social status. However, referencing from the book titled Contemporary African Fashion edited by Suzanne Gott and Kristyne Laughran, the info retained was how modernized these countries actually are in fashion and how America fashion influenced that through imports of second hand clothing. In the chapter of Second hand clothing and fashion in Africa, it states “Secondhand clothing from the West is a popular imported commodity in many countries in Africa…in Nigeria and Sengal, secondhand clothing has entered a specific niche. Although people from different socioeconomic groups, and not only the very poor, now purchase imported secondhand clothing and use it widely for everyday wear, Senegalese and Nigerians commonly follow long-standing regional style conventions, dressing with pride for purposes of displaying locally produced cloth in 'African' styles.”(Chapter 3 by Karen Tranberg Hansen) I found it disturbing; yet that's when the idea of this collection came to life! In West Africa, their fashion is using these beautiful home woven African print fabrics that would symbolize different subjects in their culture; however, when America began to dump second hand clothing in these rural areas is when Africa began to capitalize. Now interestingly, they've mixed some of their cultural aspects with western influences. Example from the book shows a chief in his village wearing a textile of American celebrities as the printed on his fabrics. Therefore that concept was modified, instead, being an American influenced by West African culture. Wanting to be artistic, color-blocking techniques was incorporated into some designs to appeal as being modern. The influence comes from the actual African fabrics from Ghana, Mali, and Senegal. The Bazan is a Senegalese batiste woven fabric with a wax gloss. Mud cloth is predominant in Mali, a heavy weight yet loose basket woven. And the Kente that's sometimes dyed or woven in Ghana. In result, it's a fusion of African textile and contemporary design. It features the use of exotic textile, geometric shapes, and color combinations. It's for the career oriented, resort woman. One who loves to work, travel, is cultural, and influential; however, most importantly fashion conscience. The ideal age I want my collection to capture is 27-36 when she's at the peak or beginning of her career and ready to explore. Shakara 360 magazine

SUPER

So would you say the name "COLOURZ COUTURE" reflects your designs?

WOMAN

Yes it does What form of training did you receive for your work?

w w w . d s u p e r w o m a n . c o m

I'm sure Miss Ndidi will have so much more to tell us about her passion, her show and her Journey so far

Hello Queen, I must say your designs are lovely, can we meet you?

Hi,my name is Queen Ndidi Ugocha,from Ndokwa East LGA, Delta State. I am currently a Student of the U n i v e r s i t y o f Po r t H a r c o u r t a n d a y o u n g entrepreneur.

How did it start; when did you realize you wanted to become a fashion designer?

S

uperWoman is a column that has been created to celebrate the accomplishments of women from all walks of life. In every edition we shall bring you interview sessions from different women whom by following their dreams are making a positive impact in the lives of others. Before we proceed to our SuperWoman for this edition. We would love to say a very big thank you to the management of Shakara360 for giving D SuperWoman's Organisation the opportunity to expand our reach through this column. May God reward your generosity Amen.

NDIDI QUEEN is our Superwoman for this edition. She is the brain behind COLOURZ COUTURE, a talented designer and entrepreneur indeed.

See that's the thing. I just made those designs for myself and people will come to me and ask “Who made this? Who made that?� I couldn't bring myself to say they were my designs because I didn't feel confident enough in them. But with time, my friends started to ask me to make stuff for them and I did and that's how COLOURZ COUTURE was born.

Wow! So at what point did you decide to take it as a profession and for how long have you been designing professionally?

describe the general process you go through to design and realize a piece of clothing. It's just a creative process which I can not totally describe, but it all starts with a dream, first of all: I create a design mentally and then sketch it so that I don't forget the design, after that I look for a fabric that will suit the design which most times is very difficult because of unavailability of my choice of fabric. finally I cut the fabric according to the design I want and then I sew it....wink# the design is ready

If so then how long does it usually take you to construct a piece?

I have always loved to wear stuff different from the usual so you can say that I have always been a Apart from shopping for fabrics and accessories professional designer but due to financial constrain, I can make a piece in 2-3hours I couldn't go commercial but here I am planning a fashion show tagged 'NEW COLLECTIONS FRENZY'. I actually call the present ASUU strike a Blessing in Disguise.

What was the first article of clothing you ever designed? The first cloth I ever designed was my personal cloth

What exactly does fashion mean to you? In addition to creating wonderful designs, Queen has also gathered experience in event managment as she organised her very first fashion show "THE NEW COLLECTIONS FRENZY" on the 23rd of November at Elleanora's Place Port Harcourt. It was a day to behold indeed, I thought the designs I saw on paper where lovely until I saw them physically; I just had to bring out money and buy ohhh...

I wasn't trained to become a designer, creative designing is something that comes from within for some people and I am one of those lucky one. On a second note I was trained to sew clothes formally which I have not perfected yet, I am saying this because there are some of my designs that up till now I can not cut and sew them

Fashion to me is anything decent, sassy n comfortable to wear What is the idea behind the name COLOURZ COUTURE?

What inspired your decision to have your own fashion show "THE NEW COLLECTIONS FRENZY"? I feel I have a lot to tell people about me and I see the fashion show as an easy way to talk to the world about me and what I can do. Most times after sketching a design between 2months or so I find someone else designing same thing so sometimes I abandon that design because if I design mine later on people might think I copied so that's why I decided to do this fashion show for people to see my designs before hand though I brought back some of my designs that I abandoned to spice up my collection

Well it happened that I love colorful clothes a lot that's how the name COLOURZ COUTURE came about

If you were to organise your show again what will you do differently from what you did?

What are the challenges you've faced so far?

If I am organising my show again I will not restrict anyone from sitting anywhere they want to. I will also get a trained anchor person because my anchor person on my red carpet appeared in all d pictures taken by d photographer, and she spoilt my red carpet by taking it as a photo studio instead of interviewing people. When next I am organising a fashion show I will bring in more events like singing, dancing,and comedy to spice up the event so that the event won't be too short. I am saying this because my event finished earlier than I expected that day. Also I will love to hold my next in a bigger hall

#taking a deep breath# like hasn't been easy at all but you know the saying 'nothing good comes easy. Finance has been one of the biggest challenge so far but with the help of my good friends and my family I have been able to make my dream a reality, secondly getting the right fabric too.....I travel as far as Port Harcourt to Balogun and Tinibu in Lagos State to get fabrics. the closest market I buy fabrics is in Aba.

Could you let us in on important details to know when organising a fashion show? Yes of course... Two heads are better than one you know? Planing an event takes a lot of hard work, you will need team spirit ,team work and you need to have a Clear picture of what you are planning to achieve. Getting all the necessary information about your event by talking to people that have succeeded in that field.

“ Fashion to me is anything decent, sassy and

comfortable to

So would you say your event turned out the way you expected? No really, but it was ok. I invited lot of personalities but they did not show up,I even reserved seats for these group of people by depriving the persons present from sitting down but at the end they did not show up and some persons walked away because they could not have a seat.

wear “

What were the things you felt incurred the most expense in your program? What incurred the most expense in my program were my hall,the models, dj and his sound system,radio interview,camera persons except my dear friend SWAGTV who supported me with out collecting a dime

Do u mind sharing with us approximately how much you incurred in organising your show? My dear planning an event is not as cheap as I thought, you can't imagine that as small as that event I spent close to a million naira

After the program how has the journey been so far? After my fashion show I have been that busy attending one fashion show after the other, interviews, photo shoots, and I've also been called up by upcoming designers for advices etc

Would you say that "the new collection frenzy" signed you into the league of Top Designers in ph? I would not say the new collection frenzy has signed me into the league of Top Designers in ph because I still have a lot to learn, infact I don't know to be frank

Some top personnels in Port Harcourt have been seen rocking Colurz Couture from Amanda of cool fm to the model on the cover of shakara magazine could you tell us about it? I deigned for Amanda,Iso,sandra,Aimi and KC of coolFM, and also the model on the cover of shakaramag as you rightfully said, and presently I am designing for an actress by the name Tamara Eteimo and also designing for the photo shoot of Miss photogenic pageant.

What are your plans for the future of COLOURZ COUTURE? My dream is to make Colourz Couture a household name home and Abroad. What will you say is the position of the fashion industry in Port Harcourt compared to other cities in Nigeria and the rest of the world? can not really say for now Which Nigerian designer do you admire? Late Remi Lagos What advice do you have for aspiring fashion designers? My advice to other young designers is to be original and creative in your work, have a clear vision, work hard and try to do a lot of research for more exposure and you will be surprised at how your designs will blow peoples minds Thank you very much for your time we wish you success in your future endeavours.

COCKTAIL

RINGS Cocktail rings are more popular than ever, and this versatile piece is the perfect way to complete any style you'd like to achieve, especially during all those holidays parties that are filling up your social schedule in the coming weeks. You can never go wrong with a beautiful, fun and color ful cocktail ring. cocktail ring trend came in the 1930s and grew throughout the 1940s and 1950s when cocktail parties were popular. These days cocktail rings can be worn with huge diamonds or other large gems for formal dressy occasions, engagement proposals or simply as part of a casual outfit. When choosing a cocktail ring you can go for the cute and sweet, the sparkling and glamorous, or the shocking and eccentric, but the general rule is - the bigger the better. A cocktail ring is there to dazzle the eye and give you a look and feel of larger-than-life at any party or other dressy occasion.

84 Gem

84Gem is earthy, yet contemporary handmade jewelry with huge cultural influences. The pieces are an organic mixture of gemstones, beads, leather and metals. I'm inspired by the large jewelry/beads worn by Kings and Queens, and the traditional African wears. The Spring/Summer line, 'Stone Love' was created around my love of large natural stones. It's for the woman that wants to be seen in beautiful, unique pieces that can be dressed up or down. The Fall/Winter line, 'Giza' was all Egyptian inspired with shapes resembling the Goddess Isis and eye catching statement necklaces.

“My passion for

modeling Sam Ntshingila

Samukelisiwe Ntshingila, a 21 year old Half Swati/Zulu South African model, currently resides in the UK, Born in Pietermaritzburg, but loves being a part of both cultures and exploring their different traditions, especially the fashions and cultures, and being able to share these with others. She started modeling at the age of 17, first just for local college and university fashion shows, which over time led her to start participating in bigger fashion events. “As my passion for modeling became stronger she said, I decided this is the road I would like my life to take”. Participating in events opened up a wide range of different experiences for her as she was exposed to people from other cultures and backgrounds and over time began to understand the aspects of the fashion industry and how clothes can be used to express a certain message. As a fast rising model, she enjoys watching fashion shows, runways events and expanding her portfolio. What she would describe as her latest piece of work was her participation on the live catwalk show of Top Model UK in London, April 2014. ”I was thrilled to be placed in the Natural Beauty category she said, and although I was not successful in gaining a finalist place, I gained a huge amount of confidence and understanding of what it takes to become a successful model”. Her own personal style is a mixture of sorts. She likes to style British and South African wear together, mixing colorful, textured African fabrics with English tweeds and tailoring. A Nelson Mandela 'Madiba' style shirt with finely tailored English garments creates a contrasting, contemporary look and reflects her culture perfectly. “South African fashion has been an influence on the British high street since 1970's she said, a mixture of batik prints and popular Shweshwe fabric which most commonly features intricate, geometric patterns, are often seen replicated all over high street stores in the UK”. Shweshwe is known as the 'tartan of South Africa and by keeping little things like this part of her style, “I will always know my roots and who I am” she said. She told shakara360 magazine that one of her main influences is Tyra Banks, a women who was rejected numerous times in her early career but went on to become the first African/American woman to grace the covers of fashion magazines. She is repeatedly ranked as one of the most influential African American woman in the world and believes her to be the most inspiring woman in her modeling career. Part of her modeling career has led her to be involved with charity works, “I currently donate to Mercury Cancer Charity and regularly lend my services to charity events and shows when I can she said, as it is something that is close to my heart, both in the UK and in Africa”. “Fashion is not just about the latest trend, but about being creative and unique, letting your own individuality shine through the cloths you are wearing. Style is who you are and as no two people are the same, it is what makes fashion beautiful”.

WOMAN Please tell us about yourself

Catch Tobe on (http://www.facebook.com/tobedadiva ) Instagram @tobedadiva Twitter @tobedadiva 0

My name is Tobechi Nneji, known better as Tobe DaDiva. I’m a Christian, last child of 5 and from Imo State. I consider myself to be vibrant, intelligent and intuitive. I am a bit introverted and like to keep to myself, however, by virtue of my job, I have learnt to be more engaging and chatty. I like to be happy and I believe that everything in life happens for a reason, which is always in our best interest at the end. Why did you choose to work on radio and how did it all start? Hmmm…why did I choose radio….Truth is that radio just happened to me. I went for an audition in 2007 and a few weeks later, they called me for training. At that time, I had just graduated and honestly didn't really have any plans for myself. So it started as a very interesting alternative to sitting at home and doing nothing. As time went on, I developed a love and passion for the job; I started to recognize what I could do and what I was already doing, I begun to feel the need to do more and share more and perhaps, help more.

By 2011, I had had several thoughts as to if I wanted to stay on radio or not (since I read Economics) and I had come to the conclusion that anything I decided to do with myself would be incomplete if I didn't have broadcasting in my plans….and so, I stuck to radio and since then, I have been building on that platform. In your "beginning days" did you ever feel like you were talking to yourself? Lol…no, not really. My boss then, made me understand that even at the oddest hours, there is always at least 1 person tuned in to a radio station. He told me that for every word I spoke, there was one person out there who heard me clearly. I never felt like I was talking to myself, but a lot of times, I felt like I wasn't doing a good job to convey my thoughts and meaning and so I made it a point to keep learning how best to communicate. Was this your dream as a little girl? As a little girl, I wanted to be many things…a doctor, a pilot and a nun. I stuck with wanting to be a doctor through my secondary school days but by SS3 I realized medicine might just not be for me. Shakara 360 magazine

Radio and Broadcasting and even Mass Communications were not options I was exposed to as a child so I had no inclination towards them at all. I do know I always liked talking and singing and dancing and just doing things that made my parents suspect I would end up living a less than fully private life. Why did you move from Vision fm to Kiss fm in Abuja and now Dream fm? The answer is simple…it was time….Time for a new challenge, time for a new experience, time for a new sound. The move to Dream FM was a big risk though…I had never lived in the East or even been to Enugu. I knew that there would be so much I would have to learn and I hoped to God that I would find people patient enough to teach me. It was scary and in the 1st few months I wanted to just quit and go home to Abuja. But thank God that through his grace, my sister and parents and a crop of some of my close friends, I was brave enough to stay. I am happy I did. Tell us about your program "The middayexpress" Ha...The MiddayExpress…it is my baby…lol. I came up with the show and it runs cumulatively from 10am – 2pm every weekday on 92.5 Dream FM, Enugu. It is most active from 11am – 1pm and that's when I bring in interviews with people and celebrities…that's when I talk about music and artist…that's when I share experiences and memories with the intention of making people think differently and consider other options in life and thought process. The MiddayExpress is a lifestyle/entertainment show…it takes on everything that young people would and should consider, from money to relationships to celebrity gossip and news to love, relationships, sex and sexuality to technology, gadgets, society etc… I work with my side kick, Marcus, who has become a good friend, and this friendship helps us to bounce off each other on air so that people tuned in can easily relate to the lifestyle and experiences of “two friends”. What the MiddayExpress does is to give the audience a brief escape from all the negativity and craziness going on around us and even when we focus on some of these troubling things, we create a lighter angle and humor to it. I could go on and on about what the show is and stands for and tries to do, because like I said, it is my baby…but the words that best describe the MiddayExpress are “escape from reality” “non-stop fun” “laughter” “intelligence” “new thoughts”. Do you see yourself as someone who has the ability to influence the thoughts of people? (By reason of your job)

Do you ever feel nervous about dealing with angry callers. Hahahaha…yes. Not just angry callers, but callers who talk and talk and talk and just deviate from the gist and also callers who call up to say something that has no relationship with what I am discussing or the worst of all, callers who use swear words. I am not quick to open up the phone lines and take calls…I prefer other more controlled platforms of communication like texts, twitter and facebook. However, the reality is that there are several show elements that can only thrive if the audience calls in and so I have just developed the skill of gentle correction and sometimes, calm jesting to correct the callers and let the show move on without incident. What skills would one need to do what you do the way you do it? In being an OAP, it is about your personality (or the personality you decide to share with the audience) and so no two people can ever do it the same way. To be an OAP though, the first thing that is needed is the confidence and willingness to share, make mistakes, learn, fool around and impact. The next thing is to learn the skill of verbal communication; that includes a sound command of the language you will be communicating in, understanding that it is not always about what you say but about how you say it. The 3rd is to have a voice that sounds nice to listen to and finally, an open mind and disposition to learning. There are people you may want to be like, there are people you may want to sound like but the most important thing is deciding and knowing who you are. YOU are the personality.

…I believe that

if more people worked with a fair degree of empathy and less unnecessary sentiment, the work place would thrive.

Ah, yes. First of all, as a person, when I go into an argument, I usually go in with facts and so most times, I am able to convince the other party. By virtue of my job, I have had several incidences where a person says that something I said on air made an impact one way or the other. Every day I go on air, I do so with the intention to give the listeners something new to think about or a new way to think about something regular. For me, being on radio is all about speaking to the thoughts of people and making them better.

How does it feel, possibly being the youngest radio programs director in Nigeria?

Hahaha….I became Programs Director at 25…and at first, I had no idea what I was doing. It was tough. I had to be in charge of people who were older than me, some who had more experience than I did…and I had no idea what I was doing. As time went on though, I started to read more, talk to other people more, pray more and I soon got the hang of the job. Being Programs Director is a lot of work…mental, psychological and emotional work and Lord knows I am constantly thankful each day I go home after a day's job. About how I feel…I honestly sometimes wish I could be just an OAP but I feel like the responsibility has made me more mature as a person and as a broadcaster. Now, at 27, It feels good as I now know I understand my job and role better and I have even greater expectations of myself…so yeah, it feels good. By reason of your position, are you seen by your coworkers as strict? Oh my, this is a question that really would best be answered by my colleagues. I believe a lot in work…I believe that if more people worked with a fair degree of empathy and less unnecessary sentiment, the work place would thrive. It is tough to project this ideal in an industry that thrives on the several unique oddities of interesting and talented personalities. I think most of my colleagues appreciate me for my job and what I bring to the table…some of them expect a little more 'softhandedness' than they get (either because I am female or because I am young)

so I can imagine that they are shocked, angered and maybe even irritated at first by some of my decisions but they eventually come around and see that my plan was (and will always be) for the better. I doubt if Strict would be a word my colleagues would describe me with but for the life of me, I really can't think of any words right now. Why did u start blogging? Hmmm…I think I just figured I could take my radio conversations online and vice versa and so I needed a platform to collate them all. I also realized there were several things I would want to share and talk about that would not be suitable for radio and so I needed another platform. Could you tell us about your participation in the business reality TV show "The Next Titan"? The Next Titan is a business reality TV show. Auditions were held around the country and about 50 people were selected for Bootcamp. Of the 50, 16 were selected to enter the house and I was one of them. Weekly eliminations went on and I stayed on till the top 6. It was a really enlightening experience in that it opened my eyes to the realities of business, entrepreneurship and planning. I also discovered lapses in myself and my skillset which I have gone on to try and fix. During the competition, I felt a lot of love and support from friends, family members and listeners of Dream FM. I am always very thankful every time I think about the experience. On a lighter note, before the Next Titan House, I felt I was too skinny and wanted to be a bit chubbier but I just wasn't gaining the extra weight. After the next titan house, I am happy to say I can now flaunt a chubbier and healthier looking body. Lol. You were nominated for the Nigerian Broadcasters Merit Awards last year, how did it feel? It felt amazing…not just because of the nomination but because of the amount of support I got. I didn't win the award but still it felt good to even have my name mentioned and I remain thankful to God. As regards your hosting of the "Top Ten Most... The Music Commentators", on Channel O is it something you plan to do permanently? The Channel O hosting was an invitation. I have to say a big thank you to my friend/growth partner/advicer Ezegozie Eze…he pretty much made it happen for me. For now, I can't say if I will do it again but the move to television is definitely in the works.

What challenges do you face frequently in your job? One frequent challenge is when My side kick, Marcus, opens my office door and asks “What are we doing on the show today?” Knowing that he might come in to ask that questions always makes me want to have an answer for it so I find myself preparing double time. Another big challenge is making the decision on what to put out on the show….especially on Mondays. As the Programs Manager, my biggest challenge is to maintain a competitive sound and standard across all shows on the station without stepping on anyone too hard or making him/her feel less. The job is best done by people who feel good about themselves and their job and I constantly try to do things that do not stop this good feeling.

There is a rumour that OAPs are not as rich as they sound, is this true? hahaha….you want me to tell on all my industry people abi? Lol. Well, yes and no. I always tell people who seek my advice not to enter into broadcasting with the intention of getting rich from your salary. If you do that, you will find yourself being unhappy and maybe even frustrated. It is possible to earn a very comfortable living being an OAP/Presenter but you have to be able to take advantage of the platform and harness the influence that you have. So, yes, most OAPs are not as wealthy as they sound but those who have truly understood their role smile to the bank m o r e o f t e n t h a n n o t . What other aspirations do u hope to achieve? My biggest aspiration is to be happy…regardless of the decisions I take, I want to be able to live with them and be genuinely happy. I hope to branch off into TV and I hope to have my own talk show someday. Ultimately, I hope for my name to become a brand that other brands feel the need to associate with. It is an honour to have a lady of your caliber, grant us this section with you. As we round up, what word of advice can you give to young ladies who desire to follow your path. Young girls…do not underestimate the value of a sound education. Value yourself and know yourself. Be confident but always be willing to learn. Most of all, before you make decisions, say a few words of prayer…trust me, that is really the secret to all I have ever done right. God bless you.

Do you find satisfaction in what you do? Yes. A lot of satisfaction…especially on days when I feel like I had a good show and there is the listener feedback to show for it. That feeling is priceless. I am always thankful to God and to several people who have shaped the person I have become and the person I becoming.

...My biggest

aspiration is to be happy

MISTAKES TO NOTE AND AVOID

Nobody is perfect is a reassuring term for make up disaster scenes, but there are some ways to avoid Looking conspicuously demeaning in public Places, and they are highlighted below

1.

IMPROPER EYE BROW

MANAGEMENT

I t ' s usual to get carried away when plucking eyebrows. In the heat of the moment, one stray hair may lead to the next until the eyebrows are reduced to two thin lines. That isn't a flattering look, and little can be done to disguise the problem,as it is already done. After the disaster, the only thing to do is to relax. And it should be left alone until they grow back in completely. While waiting for the eyebrows to grow back in, use liquid eyeliner to fill them in and make them look less alarming. See a professional for eyebrow waxing. If there's not room in the budget for such services, visit at least once to get few ideas.

NEGLECTING A GOOD SKIN CARE STEPS

2.

It is no longer a question if make up mask flaws,but it shouldn't be used in lieu of a solid skincare regimen. The best makeup in the world can't make up for neglected skin. Below is a chart that highlights avoidable profligacy that causes Bad skins. Avoid smoking: Smoking is unhealthy in general, and it can wreak serious havoc on the skin. Stay hydrate: A Dry skin is more susceptible to fine lines and other signs of ageing. Moisturize it from within by drinking plenty of water. Get Enough sleep: Burning the candle at both ends can lead to bags under the eyes and other skin problems. Nothing can take the place of getting plenty of sleep. Use sunscreen: The best makeup products have SPF skin protection built into their formulas. Many moisturisers also include sunscreen. Make sure that the skin is protected from the sun every day. Use moisturisers: Without moisturizing the skin daily, it will be difficult to keep it looking its very best. Using a moisturizer also helps to ward off fine lines and wrinkles.

INAPPROPRIATE

3. MAKE UP MAKING USE OF AGE

Jut as fashion trends has a knack with age, there are certain types of makeup that are geared toward specific age groups. The usual common mistakes is to apply makeup in a way that's not age-appropriate. For example, makeup with glitter isn't suitable for older women. Similarly, teenage girls should avoid slathering on too much makeup because it can make them look much older. There was a case of a girl who was 17yrs old and wore an intimidating 'over make-up' her age grade guys started greeting her. As tempting as it may be to try different makeup trends, keep in mind that they are usually intended for young women and teenage girls. It has to be good for your age or you're going to face a disaster.


4.

APPLYING WRONG

FOUNDATION COLORS

Always remember that foundation isn't bronzer. It's not designed to change the colour of the skin. With that in mind, choose a foundation that closely replicates the natural colour of the skin. It may not be possible to find a single product that does this effectively. For more natural results, buy two or three different shades and mix them to arrive at the right colour. Throughout the year, different colors of foundation will be needed. Even the slightest change in skin tone can make it necessary to buy new foundation. Furthermore, some types of foundation oxidize throughout the day. Oils from the skin cause this to happen, and foundation that starts out looking fine can end up looking orange by the end of the day. To avoid mismatching foundation, start by using it sparingly. If minimal coverage is needed, a tinted moisturizer may be a better option. Use a translucent powder to seal in the foundation so that it keeps looking fresh throughout the day.

5.

EXCESSIVE BRONZER

A less obvious make up application is often more outstanding. It's nice for skin to have a healthy glow and the right bronzer can make that happen. However, it's easy to go too far with bronzer. When that happens, the skin can take on a strange, orange appearance. It is immediately obvious that bronzer has been used. When it's applied properly, however, it shouldn't be obvious at all. Bronzer that gives skin a healthy sheen is popular, but it's also tricky to apply. Matte bronzer may be a better option, but it should be applied sparingly as well. There are also spray-on bronzers on the market that are often easier to apply and produce more natural results.

6.

EXCESSIVE APPLICATION OF MAKE UP IN GENERAL

Hideous is a perfect term that expresses the onlookers' expression when an over applied make up ruined a personality. The most effective way to use makeup is to apply it in a way that accentuates a single feature. For example, use a bright lipstick to play up the lips or smoky eye shadow to jazz up the eyes. A major mistake to avoid is trying to draw attention to every part of the face. Dressing up the lips, eyes, cheeks, and other parts of the face with too much makeup will look cartoonish. Choose a single part of the face to accentuate and do most of the work there. Use a light touch with the rest of the face. In the end, it will produce a more natural and attractive look. Remember make up application, esteems a personality

7.TECHNIQUES

IMPROPER BLENDING

The idea of make up, is to sharpen a Look. Without blending makeup properly, it's not going to look natural. This applies to foundation, blush, and eye shadow, which all need to be blended in a smooth and seamless way. The right tools make this much easier to do. It's well worth it to invest in an assortment of makeup brushes. Latex wedges also make it easier to blend makeup for professional results. Just make sure to replace old brushes and wedges regularly. When they become too dirty, they can have a negative impact on the quality of the makeup that is used. Its worth it.

8.

THE NEGLECT OF AN EYE LASH CURLER

Whatever is worth doing is worth doing well. It only takes a few seconds to curl the eyelashes, and it can make an enormous difference. It's especially important when using mascara because it makes the eyes pop in an even more glamorous way. The right eyelash curler can make all of the difference, and it's well worth it to splurge on a decent one. Immediately before applying mascara, carefully curl the eyelashes. When it's done properly, curling the eyelashes will make it easier to apply mascara. Curled eyelashes help to open up the eyes and make them appear larger, which results in a more sharp/ attractive appearance. Even if clear mascara is used or no mascara is used at all, this is one step that should never be skipped... NEVER

9.

EXCESSIVE POWDERING

Oily skin often leads to excessive powdering. People with oily skin often tend to get tempted at the idea of excessive powdering to help the skin tone. but really it makes the skin looks dry and un nutritious instead of the normal glamour of a more glowing and healthy skin tone. It is often advised to carry the powder around to re-powder wen necessary than to overly apply it in one stray move. Use a translucent powder and use a light touch when applying.

10.

PUTTING ON A

LIPSTICK

THAT'S TOO DARK

This is seriously un advisable, considering a black lipstick could be really ageing. It is also difficult to apply properly due to the boldness of the colour black. The worst option of all is dark matte lipstick, which can look especially unnatural. If dark lip color is an absolute must, use gloss or sheer lipstick to produce the most natural, youthful look possible. Never use dark lip liner. When applied properly, dark lip color won't stray beyond the natural boundaries of the lips, so lip liner is completely unnecessary. Armed with the above 10 listed mistakes and working cautiously to avoid them, you could do no wrong.
