WHEN GORGEOUS NNENNA OKOYE ADDED A YEAR






With husband, Ugo Okoye

It's raining birthdays this December of 2019 unabatedly and we cannot just not celebrate some good. great and beautiful people. And one of those that came under our radar and that we just thought we shouldn't ignore is none other than the stupendously gorgeous and stylish wife of Ugo Okoye, in the person of Nnenna Okoye who is the head honcho at top beauty place YOUTOPIA.

The tall, light skinned, beautiful & brainy mother of 3, just clocked 36 a few days ago and we had expected a major throw down kinda things, that would have had all her beautiful girlfriends likes of Toke, Arese and more in attendance showing off some new styles and what have you. And that's just because we know very well that she or her handsome bloke of a husband, who is one of the famous Okoye brothers that panicked Lagos a bit a few years ago, can easily afford it.

But instead of the throw down, she opted for or she preferred to have a more private and rather subdued celebration. The in your face mother of 3 kids, who looks like she's just about to get married. but who has done a decade plus already, is one of Nigeria's top beauty experts/entrepreneurs and it shows all over her, meaning that she's the best advert for what she does.

From what we hear, her beauty parlor which is down Fola Osibo, near Hakeem Dickson in the Lekki Phase 1 axis of Lagos is always a beehive of activities for the discerning beauty enthusiasts, who daily thronged her office for one advise or the other or even to pick up some of her best selling beauty products, many her of which are her own exclusive products too.

Elegant Nnenna, who is a known egg head, had a couple of years back, 2005 to be more precise, had graduated from the popular University of Kent, where she had read for a degree in Accounting and Finance and had graduated in flying colours. The beautiful lady has an ACCA too. Then about 6 years ago, sometime in 2013 when the entrepreneurial bug ate her up, she gave voice to her other major passion, which is beauty, as she went to a beauty school to fine tune what could be tagged her native, natural intelligence, that's talking about her attending "The Beauty Academy in London', where she had gone to learn all (the nitty-gritty) that it takes, before she now came back to set up her now famous YOUTOPIA place and brand.

It is that same brand that as now grown in leaps and bounds in just 6 years of existence, with an enviable clientele list for that matter too. The mother of 3, is acclaimed to be a phenomenal wife, it's been 11 good years of marriage already (she had walked down the aisle and gotten married age 25); she's an exceptional mother of 3 brilliant kids, but has been said it's like motherhood is her special gift and a supremely super loyal friend to those who can swear on anything about her good and endearing qualities.

So on this her 36th occasion, we are happy to say happy birthday t🎂 to her and wish her more beautiful and health blessed years ahead.

HAIR-PRENEURS CHIOMA GOODHAIR & AKUNNA GETS NEW WONDERS ON WHEELS. BUSINESS MUST BE SURELY BOOMING!

Chioma Ikokwu of Good Hair Ltd

Akunna Nwala-Akano of Kuku's Hair 

Anyone that claims that there's no money in the hair business, either luxury or normal had better have a rethink as contrary to what most believe, there seem to be some sort of Naira rain of epic proportion happening in that sector of the lifestyle business. And those who are very involved in the business, who have invested very well in it, are just smiling and smiling to the banks daily. And from what we have garnered, it's not just #mizwanneka, who is also known as the hair boss, who had razzled-dazzled all comers a few weeks back, when she took delivery of her mind-blowing, N120m Naira valued 2020 matte black & dazzling G-Swag and later went forward to open her new, dazzling place in the Lekki Phase 1 area, which she claims to have bought outright, that is enjoying the largesse from doing good business in the sector. (Someone claims she only has a long lease on the spot and has not yet bought the place outright).

It seems like others too like her, who are also very prominent in the same type of business are not also doing shabbily at all and there are evidences to show that all is super well too on their sides in a massive way too, but they might just be loads more incognito or better still feel better being under the radar than others. Truth though is that it seems like the sky is actually massive enough for all the birds around to fly about unencumbered.

From what we hear, Chioma Ikokwu of Good Hair Ltd, whose other partner is the very stylish Kika, who had earlier this year gotten her own classy condominium in old Ikoyi which we hear is still getting fixed to meet that fully badass upscale standards. That particular purchase had gotten many others in her world salivating as they never expected it. Chioma is said to have already paid for, and she is eagerly awaiting the delivery of her own brand spanking new, 'senior utility vehicle' SUV too. From the unconfirmed information at our disposal, it's like this new machine that's coming in soon, most likely before the end of the year to be more precise, might actually be a '2019 Range Rover Velar'.

The beautiful Velar from what we know of it, is a 'mid range luxury SUV', and one of the great cars in the Land Rover/Range Rover range of SUVs.  And from the available information about the 2019 Velar, it actually starts from about $49,950 which is approximately about (N18,000,000) & can rise to about $75,000 which is about N27, 000,000), this cost here doesn't include the duty and Co, which comes to the new standard 70% made uo of 35% duty and another 35% levy tax. When that 70% is added to the cost of purchase, the landing cost of the car could come to plus or minus between N30,600,000 to N45, 900,000 Naira. Although N46m is  a whooping sum on its own, it is still a far cry from N120m which is how much #mizwanneka's G Wagon cost. Meaning #mizwanneka could have bought just bought 3 Velars, if she just added 17million Naira to N120m.

The Velar though, is still a awesome package in anyway or manner one wants to look at too. Maybe though, Chioma could change her mind now and order instead a G wagon. As the G Wagon has now come to be the standard by which others are judged in the sector now, that's for anyone that wants to stand out from all others. So for now Nwanneka is in a different Liga all by herself.

Lest we forget, Good Hair Ltd hair from what we could gather come at between N250000 to N600,000 Naira. But special order could go far above the margin stated here.

For Akunna Nwala Akano though, who is the excellently delectable, totally bodacious, awesomely shaped boss at Kuku's Hair also based on the island, with the actual location of her office being the Lekki Phase 1 axis. She's also obviously doing super well too from the looks of it. In actual fact, this married mother of one is rated as selling some of the best hair in the hair sector today. She's reputed as having mostly the very upscale, very high up there clientele as her preferred customers. She's actually done super well for herself, having been in the hair business for a decade now, having started in 2009. Just imagine selling a full head of hair from about N130,000 Naira for the cheap and chearful to as much as N1m plus Naira.

Her range of the super exotic hairs which starts from N450,000, is acclaimed by most to be her best seller by far & unmatchable by others in the business. So just imagine if 10 of her high-flying customers would buy a full head of hair at some point, that would come to at least N4.5m Naira alone. And it could go for far higher up than that, as some of this clientele could buy the range that's above N450,000. We are too sure that you all know that in Nigeria, it's strictly about outdoing each other on the style stake, so the more expensive one is garbed, the better!

So one can now begin to understand why these hair merchants, are all such definite high flyers. Wearing and carrying the latest garbs from all of the best brands around without a whimper and with undeniable sass and oomph. Akunna's incredible bag collection from what we have heard, is actually one to die for, as it includes several crocodile skinned Hermes Birkin which goes for not less than $40000 that's about N14 plus million for just a bag! And she owns more than one of such! And there's the speculation also that, she even has/own an ostrich Birkin, added to the several normal ones she also owns. The ostrich Hermes could go for as much as $54000 or in fact more, depending. That alone is about N20m for just a bag! 1 bag at that! One ostrich bag and 2 Croco would actually buy & bring in without any stress the highest end, brand spanking, factory minted Velar!

To show how good business has been for Akunna, she only just a few weeks back, took delivery of not less than 3 not cheap at all cars, made up of a Range Rover, a Toyota SUV and a Toyota Hilux. All of these cars in one fell swoop and which would have cost her, not less than several tens of millions in Naira.

So if any one now claims for any reason that the hair business in Nigeria is not a virtual goldmine, then they do not know nothing then.

FORMER MBGN MUNACHI ABII ON THE MULTIMILLION DOLLAR PATH AS SHE DELVES INTO BEAUTY PRODUCTS BUSINESS WITH BERRY WORKS...











Finally, ex-most beautiful girl in Nigeria 2007, that's a whole decade plus and more, 'Munachi Gail Teresa Abii Nwankwo' has joined the league of Beauty products owner, as she unveiled her own product or better still brand, aptly called 'BERRY WORKS' recently, which had been in motion or works, under the radar for quite a bit.

Finally we think, she's has decided to take advantage of her stunning beauty and beautiful skin or body, to market something a whole lot more in her terrain, which if well packaged and properly branded and marketed could be a soar away success. The now 32 year old stunner, born November 5, 1987, who had tried her hand unsuccessfully in the music/entertainment industry as a rapper, had hinted a few days to her birthday just a few days ago, that something cool and sweet was in the offing from her and she had asked her fans/followers to stay tuned to her page to know what it would be. She later on after the outpourings of felicitations from all and sundry, announced her newest baby, BERRY WORKS to the eagerly awaiting world.

According to the Benson Idahosa University Alumni, who studied for & has a degree in International Relations & Diplomacy, who had finished from the famous Federal Government Girls College, Abuloma, Port-Harcourt, Rivers State, who is also one of 'Nigeria's Most Eligible Bacholorettes', Berry Works had been in the making for a bit. And the idea came about also from people asking her what she used to maintain her skin color and glow. Read more about her reasons in the bromide or screen shot above.

She emphasized on the sleepless nights & hurdles she had to cross to make her labor of love come to fruition. And like she said, "she made the product for those who seek to have blemish-less (blemish free) skin and youthful glow". We sincerely hope the brand would work and deliver exceptionally too. Muna, which is Munachi's stage name has a whole lot of people she can help bring salvation to, who have had issues over time with their skin and wouldn't mind spending, if they would get their monies value.

May this new path, lead to the outpouring of much millions on the beautiful, but humble beauty. At least if renowned 'Reprudencia Sonkey' better known as Dencia, who owns 'Whitenicious' could do it and is now a multimillionaire skin product goddess (she's acclaimed to be worth in excess of $30million dollars), who then cannot too?

Munachi has also added the famous tag of actress to her name and resume too. She is one of the stellar cast of the new Nigerian blockbuster movie 'Living in Bondage, Breaking free, a sequel to an award winning movie of many years back, that is going to take our cinemas by storm this weekend. The exciting sequel is owned by Charles Okpaleke and directed by Ramsey Nouah. Munachi was one of the lead cast and she was the bomb in the movie too, alongside the incredible lead star - Swanky.

Seems like all the elements are aligning all at the same time too.

BBNAIJA PEPPERDEM 2019 WINNER MERCY EKE IS ON FIRE 🔥! COMBINES HERE WITH THE KING OF STYLIST SWANKYJERRY TO MAGNIFICENT EFFECT. KUDOS!

Lamborghini Mercy..... by Bbyonce

The king & his Muse (Swankyjerry & Mercy Eke) 

Style Queen in the making

Don't get scared, we are not talking of naked flame of any kind here, but just merely playing with words or should we say making use of an appropriate figure of speech literally. The focus of our attention is none else than the dazzling winner of the 'BBNaija Pepperdem 2019' & that's talking about Mercy Eke. She was the last lady and last person standing of all the housemates at the last BBNaija series where she pulverized and annihilated all comers.

Her winning percentage was far more than that of the 2 runners-up Mike & Frood combined. That was just a mere show of the sheer power of the effect she had on people. People actually went all out, to vote her to win. Never before had someone so ignited people like that. We doubt if any elections in Nigeria, had ever gotten such level of excitement and participation ever before.

With Mercy, you either fall deeply in love with her & her antics or you just don't like her. But there was just something very infectious about her. First was that confidence and later fear. Or was it that her signature dance, where she just turns her bum on you at the slightest opportunity and then just twerk her life away with utter abandon? One thing again that was noticed about her from day one was her style.

From what we saw till the end, she never repeated an outfit all through her 99 days in that stifling house. She even had more than enough wigs to flaunt, to the extent she could loan some out. For us we believed that she used the house as her runway, the perfect stepping stone. She was well prepared for the show obviously and with every opportunity given her, she razzle-dazzled us with one impressive outfit after another, always playing to her strength, showing her curves. Truth be told, she was truly the 'queen of highlights', she earned that title well.

She was one person that kept many glued to the TV as everyone wanted to see what she was going to wear or come out with every weekend. The person that did her bum did a good job and she too knew how to work it to maximum effect. Either glam or casual, she was always on point. So she deservedly won. If she didn't, maybe many would have felt short-changed. And they could have protested!!!!!!

And to show that style-wise, she isn't a flash in the pan, she has refused to let down her guard even after leaving the house. Wounding us (in a good way) day in, day out with her impressive style options. She hasn't yet placed a foot wrong in the style department. In fact, we believe she must have won more converts or fans to her side since she emerged from the house.

We actually didn't write a single line for her, all through her stay in the house, even as she caught our attention while she was a house mate. But now we just couldn't resist saying our 2 cents.

It's so incredibly obvious that "Mercy Eke aka Lamborghini Mercy", the gorgeousness with the million Naira ass (M.N.A), is unofficially, the 'most stylish' of all the BBN season's housemates bar NONE. And by that we are combining all the different Big Brother Housemates.

We couldn't just resist how she totally mesmerized us in no small way/measure in this her short, blue outfit. We had 1st thought it was Toke, but had to do a double take, as Toke is a lot more petite.

Here in the picture is Mercy the incredible and her badass stylist, the one and only SwankyJerry. This is perhaps one of the most perfect collaborations we would ever see. Borrowing a statement from our good colleague, Kemi Ashefon, who tagged it the  "stylist & his muse", we have thought to say the king stylist and his princess charming muse, that statement perfectly suites/fit what is captured here.

All great designers from the incredible Christian Dior to the incomparable YSL to the awesome Jean Paul Gauthier & more, all had their favorite muse, who perfectly encapsulated & expressed their most fantastic inner most expressions of style. With Mercy Eke, Nigeria's most famous & one of the most magical of stylist-Swankyjerry seem to have found his forever, most perfect muse yet. And we are truly and overwhelmingly excited about it.

We are in fact, expecting MAGIC of the most incredible & awesome type. Mercy seems to be the most perfect blank canvas ever, either to express style or even for make up too. See in this pictures above, also make up done by the magical hands of bibyonce.

Need we say more!!!

POPULAR LAGOS BASED NIGERIAN PLASTIC SURGEON IN BOTCHED SURGERY MESS



We have no issues whatsoever with anyone indulging in anything they feel is good for them or that helps to boost their confidence. Many have had to do it, to help correct what accidents of all kinds, might have screwed up terribly. So that's great. But there have been too many instances too, where people have just indulged in it just for the fun of it.

For those in this category. It's a quest to just re-do whatever it is they have considered nature's mistakes. In their minds, they believe that maybe nature cheated them or short changed them, so with the opportunity to try to make amends available, nothing is ever again going to stop them from achieving what they consider their dream bodies. So however it can be done, no matter the risk and cost, they don't mind going under the knife to correct such problems or achieve their goal.

While there have been so many successes, so many in fact too numerous to count, there have also been many mistakes too, in fact even casualties too and that's scary! Remember it was the complications from a liposuction gone bad that eventually killed a well known person not too long ago. Just like we have in many professions, smart alecs and charlatans, who just want to experiment, just so they can make money abound in loads. But also there are qualified personnel too, who knowing very well their own limitations should embrace restrain, but instead of accepting such, they have preferred to be seen as a jack of all trades, master of all. So just bring any job, we go do am!

This particular doctor, a  celebrated plastic surgeon for that matter, is well known, especially since plastic surgery became the in thing in Nigeria. And since he emerged on the scene with his practice, he has done loads and loads of jobs, a quite many successful ones at that. And by virtue of that he believes he has become extraordinary at doing many of the procedures that have been brought his way. In fact he has become very cocky, over confident and somewhat rude.

But this particular liposuction that he did around June/July has turned into a super ugly thing. What was supposed to have emerged better and given the person operated on renewed confidence, has emerged even far worse now, than what was there before. It's even a grotesque mess. And the particular victim is so ashamed and embarrassed of the botched job now, she feels too embarrassed to shout out.

The SW dude from all indication is so cocky now that it has turned to rudeness. The reason majorly for that is also because he sees himself as the salvation of all gullible women who aren't satisfied with their bodies and would go to any length to try to make a cosmetic change. So the demand from what we hear, is so far above the supply, hence the cost (price) is not cheap and the one that makes the magic happen can afford to be cocky.

Like we said before, we cannot begrudge anyone for wanting to help shore up their own self-esteem and confidence, but that's only when the process or procedure used in achieving such is not harmful and very safe and wouldn't add more problem at the end of it all! But the plastic surgery thing has since become like a dime in a dozen now in Nigeria. Just imagine that in the length of time the thing became more popular here, a number people have even died untimely in the process in recent times! And guess what, such deaths have been hushed!

Just imagine a secretary/trainee nurse/attendant, at a point leaving her popular boss, to go set up her own clinic, claiming to know how to do such procedures too! And then the not so easily  reversible accidents that have occurred at such kind of clinic, with people even dying and then such had to be kept hush hush. Very recently such a thing happened in Abuja to a lawyer and what has come out of it? Nothing!

Loads off botched jobs abound all over, here and there. Many have had to go re do what had been done before. And why wouldn't such be the case, when the ladies are literally queuing up to have one thing or the other done. In fact, some are even begging for discounts too, so they could go do theirs too! These doctors are so busy with appointments back to back that, they have jobs waiting for several weeks ahead. With such schedules, mistakes are definitely sure to happen.

In Lagos now, if you see 10 ladies (married and single) at most functions, at least about 4 to 6 of them, have had things done on their bodies just for the fun of it or to impress some men. Boobs, stomach, bum etc. The bum in particular is the most happening part to do now. The kind of bazookas or humongous edifices some people are carrying behind them now, are totally unbelievable. It's like they have stuffed massive pillows down their backs now and they carry those grotesque things with so much pride and aplomb, it's laughable. We can name names, but that's not necessary right now.

Back to the lady we were on about, her stomach which was done about 4 to 5 months ago is botched and she's ashamed now to let people know. Apparently when she reported back to the dude, he just told her it would get better and it hasn't. So now that the 1st surgery is like money down the drain and to correct now would be more money again and then just imagine the risk!

To our ladies, you all need to be careful. A word is enough for the wise. Any which way though, na your bodies ooooo.

LIVE AT THE FACE OF ZIKEL 2019 CAMP








Zikel Cosmetics is a Nigerian beauty brand that is set to give all others in the same business a run for their money. The growing concern that's already shaking the beauty industry powerfully, has about '50 products' under their brand, and that's still growing too. In just under a few years of her existence, going to just 3 years to be more precise, it has extended her growing tentacles across Nigeria and even the West African sub-region via franchising and other marketing channels and its still growing steadily in leaps. Many who have used & are still using their various products, readily testifies to the reliability of the many products in the range.

A testament to how good their products are, is also in the level of their brand ambassadors, who have endorsed the brand in just 3 years of existence. They have had 3 brand ambassadors so far, and they are all very well known, quite stylish personalities in the entertainment industry, who all hold their own very well. There's Halima Abubakar, thr Kogi bombshell actress and producer, there's the awesomely beautiful Mercy MacJoe and then the most current and the biggest of them all so far, being the one and only Tonto Dikeh. Who was signed on, not too long ago with loads of fanfare, to a very 'lucrative contract', said to be one of the biggest in the country so far.

Zikel Cosmetics prides itself as an 'affordable luxury' range of beauty products made for the 'African woman of distinction', who wants to use beauty products that helps to bring out her best features, without having any adverse effect whatsoever on her skin. Their products, are clinically tested for the most delicate skins, so it's not just about selling alone, what the products help to achieve at the end is very important too. .

As part of the brand's ideology/philosophy to contribute her own quota to the society by been very 'socially responsible', it has organized its own unique type of beauty contest which it has called the "Face of Zikel international 2019" to empower young and beautiful ladies. The upcoming unique beauty event with her grand finale slated for Sunday, July 14, 2019 at the prestigious Bespoke Event Center, Lekki, Lagos is the maiden edition of the annual contest and it promises to be a massive event by all standards possible. Already invitation cards have gone out a great deal and many stars in the country and other celebrities plus those involved in the beauty field have promised to storm the classy event in great numbers.

We were at the camp where about 50 plus stunning contestants from all over the country and even from outside are camped and going through rigorous competitive drills to prepare them ahead for the Sunday, grand finale.

In all, about 10 titles would be competed for, some would be won at the camp and the others would be at the grand finale proper. The titles on line for prospective winners are the: Face of Zikel World: Universe: Photogenic: Popularity: Amity: Glamour: Tourism: Ecowas:  & Charismatic. The main title though is the Face of Zikel world 2019 and the lucky winner, would on Sunday be carting home a million Naira (1 million NAIRA cash): would embark on an all expenses paid trip to Dubai, the UAE: 6 months unlimited supply of Zikel Cosmetics products amongst many things that the winner and other consolidation prizes that others would cart home.

It has been fun galore at the camp as we speak, been the 1st day of camp, the gals had their accreditations done and were introduced to the products and then grilled on the rules of the camp and other things by their pageant manager who was assisted by the chaperones. After a quick change, they thereafter had a swell welcome party by the pool side of their camp venue. All were looking very hot🔥 & smashing in their swimsuits and bikinis. The gals came from all over Nigeria, including a contestant that flew in from the UK and about 2 from Ghana. The camp is on till Sunday as more activities and surprises are still in store for the contestants as packaged by Zikel Cosmetics, the organizers of the Face of Zikel international 2019 competition.

Check out a few of the pictures of the contestants that we met today.

TOKE MAKINWA BREAKS THE INTERNET






Toke needs no introduction of any kind. She is in fact one of Nigeria's most popular celebs/media personalities, a freaking rich one at that. And a fashionista to the core. She's one person that's always seeking to explore new opportunities, to extend her business frontier and at the rate she's going she would soon become Nigeria's own Kylie Jenner, owning her own multi-billion Naira business empire and obliterating all comers to smithereens.

She's an OAP, a bestselling author, an entrepreneur in the beauty and lifestyle sector. And apart from owning her own beauty brand, which sells a range of products, she also owns a fashion brand that makes bags too, with her initials TM stamped proudly on it. Truth be told, they are well made.

As a quite confident and beautiful woman, who is not in any way afraid to show off what she's got, she just put her stunning petite frame in spotlight to the envy of all recently and the result is what you have above. A perfect showoff of her enviable well sculpted derriere. The main picture like she's described it, is art and we have captioned it "Art in dazzling motion".

This is what it means, totally showing it off, putting your most pronounced asset on the spotlight. How can one hide what Miami and a fit lifestyle made happen.

Kudos dear.

If you have got it, flaunt it even before the angels. If you don't know before, now you know why Toke's products are flying off the shelves. Toke is in the quest to take over the world, dismiss her at your own peril. Way to go gal!!!!

WHO IN THE WORLD IS THE WORLD FAMOUS DR. AYO OF VGC?



We hear he is the angel of help that all the gals, ladies, women and some men had been waiting for all this while, so since he came on the scene his place has been the mecca of activities for those in need of one help or the other.

He is the supposed force of nature, that is helping many ladies to achieve their dream bodies, dream shapes, correcting whatever it is they feel is not right or helping to put to shape any part that has gone south or that just needs help generally.

When you suddenly see those you have known before with flat arses, derriere, buttocks and straight hips, no waists, small boobs etc suddenly start showing off their new spanking bodies on Instagram now with shapes, boobs and things to die for. Flaunting their new buttoms to the world with delight, then you know for sure that the magic hands of the man of the moment has waved his magic wand and abracadabra, a new woman has emerged, all brand spanking new. Some even call him the "bum bum carver" . Mennnn what a job to do daily!! !

And he is most likely to be the most popular doctor in Nigeria now. That's talking about Dr. Ayo and the other older Doctor, Dr. Femi.

In Nigeria, it's no more just about flushing out the melanin alone invasively (from inside out) to emerge pure white (oyinbo), though the end product most often still comes with some slight discolorations at some strategic places like the elbows and knees and sometimes the ankle areas, but some still boasts of being able to achieve all round even 'toning' without any dark spots whatsoever. Now though, it's about having a '360 degrees', all round, total change of outlook. The ladies seem to have rediscovered all over again, what the men want and by men, we mean those with the cash, and not just all mere men. So to be able to compete well for the undivided attention of these few made men, who would go to any length to spend for their specifications, the ladies are redoing totally, in fact rejigging were necessary what nature gave them, to emerge more structured and more in your face. It seems to give them the required confidence and saleability that they require or desire badly.

Many of these ladies, both young and old, are going the extra mile to get sorted, to have the body to die for. While some want the end result to look as natural as possible, some are just going all out to stand out at all cost. What many have seen done on cable networks like it was far away as since become a near home experience. And since all cannot fly abroad to Miami and the likes (that's where TM 1st did hers, before coming back to Lagos to correct it after sitting too early). There's a surge in the numbers of those that have engaged in one or two or even more procedures now. Though most like to keep the fact under wraps, as they want most to believe they just achieved their desired body through natural means.

FF & KK both well known entrepreneurs in the lifestyle business in Lagos in Lekki, both have backsides that defies the law of gravity now. So pumped out are their bazookas that they are always the cynosure of all eyes whenever they step out. TM & DL now have more rounded behind that they flaunt now at the drop of a hat.

Now instead of all the expense to travel abroad and the likelihood of even still getting a botched procedure done by the many fakes that litter the US, Lebanon, Philippines, Brazil, the UK etc where the rich or well to do, those who could easily afford it then used to go to do those quiet nips and tucks before it became as popular as it is now. Now no need anymore to fly abroad  again as there is the ready made answer/solution in Lagos, Nigeria and his famous name is Dr. Ayo in VGC.

We hear that the dude is raking in the cash like there's no tomorrow and smiling to the bank nearly everyday for procedures done. In fact some say there is like a queue. The who is who have felt his magic touch and testimonies abound already. We are still compiling the names of those we know who have gone under the knife at one time or the other.

Dr. Ayo from the little information we have gotten went to Medilag, that's the famous University of Lagos Medical school, a few years back before going to further hone his skills abroad and now after a few years of practise, like an acorn has gradually grown into a formidable oak tree that's still spreading its branches MD helping to make many dreams come true. He is said to be in his early 40s and he is probably the most visible, most celebrated plastic surgeon presently in Nigeria.

From sleeping as an ugly duckling in one day, you could now emerge from that your slumber now as a Cinderella, that Prince charming would just be falling head over heels for as you emerge with a full new body and new attitude all by virtue of the magic of Dr. Ayo.

NIGERIA'S FOREMOST BEAUTY ARTIST OF THE DECADE LOOKS SUPER STUNNING AT 40!!!








It's like Banke Meshida-Lawal has been with us for so so long. Far longer than she really has been. Her name is synonymous with the growth of Make Up artistry in Nigeria and in fact Africa as a whole. She can be tagged very well without any controversies whatsoever as one of the grand icons of the trade, who totally elevated it to a stratospheric level. So she deserves our kudos!

Her growing clientele list reads the who-is-who of the society and beyond, many of whom would not accept that another would touch them up. Names like Hajia Bola Shagaya, Mo Abudu and the likes are on that awesome list. To many, she's like the Michaelangelo, Picasso, Monet, Van Gogh, Salvador Dali, Rembrandt of Make up/beauty artistry and truth be told, she has earned her stripes, and gallantly too at that. If she were into shoe making she would be ranked side by side one of the greats like Christian Louboutin or Charlotte Olympia, if she were a fashion designer, she would run shoulders with icons the likes of Giorgio Armani or Karl Lagerfeld. That just tells you just how good, how magical she is with her brush, in fact some feel she is a magician of great skills. At a point she was even the official make up artist to a sitting 1st lady of Nigeria, in the person of Madam Dr. Patience Jonathan.

The "incredible celebrity make-up artist and make up brand owner" & a budding photographer (men she takes some mean pictures!) to add to the boot, clocked the good 40 yesterday, August 21, 2018 making her a purring, very feline LEO!! ! As is widely known and acknowledged, Leos are born leaders by nature and so by natural inclination are always at the forefront, leading the pack while strutting majestically about, so now people can just naturally understand why it's so easy and effortless for Banke to lead the pack!

And just because she is a jolly good feline in whom many are pleased, one who has touched a lot of people's lives via what she does best, which is helping to expose the best parts of them, while totally downplaying their less beautiful spots/parts,..... fans, friends, family members, colleagues etc rolled out the drums and blew the trumpets in celebration as she clocked the age of maturity! Life just simply just started for her henceforth.

So we also here at Maestro's Media joins in the celebration of a wonderful icon of her forte and world, the incredible artist known to world as Banke Meshida-Lawal, we say to you queen feline, Long may your reign be, Happy birthday and keep purring!

IN DEFENSE OF TOKE MAKINWA'S NUDE GLORIFICATION



We didn't want to say anything before, even though we had seen the beautiful picture of the super gorgeous, totally delightsome and ultimate fashionista Toke Makinwa in her stunning nude glory, displaying her exceptionally flawless skin for all to see and salivate on. Thank God that at least nothing private was peeking out in anyway. So it can very well be considered a very tasteful pose and picture and not vulgar in anyway or manner.

We were going to be quiet about it all, letting sleeping dog lay comfortably, without shaking any table or rustling any feather whatsoever, until someone sent the picture to us and captioned it as "the hussle is real ooooo" and that immediately got us thinking.

Yes we had seen the picture and didn't think too much of it, reason been that why disturb another person's hussle really? We have always been a firm believer in self expression. You own yourself and however you decide and desire that you want to portray yourself is nobody's business, period! At least even if she was naked, it's no one else's body!!! Na your boobs or na your vayjahjay????

Going at it a bit deeper though. Even the scriptures, which is the guide for Christians is also greatly in support of 1, Self expression and 2. is greatly in support of labor and wages. Like it says and we are not quoting it verbatim here, that whatever it is that you find in your hand to do, do same with all your strength and with all purpose. It then went on further to buttress the point by saying a worker is deserving of his/her wages, then went on further to say he/she that doesn't work deserves not to eat. So all of the above just says it that, whatever it is that's positive that you have found to do as work, you deserve the commensurate pay from it and therefore none should begrudge you! So if Toke has found a worthwhile venture to indulge in, especially that type that's bringing her good wages and contentment, please go haywire with it abeg, not minding whose ox is gored! If in the course of it or at the end of it all, she becomes a spectacle, that would at least be good for us onlookers or spectators to ogle at for fun, no big deal! And if you haven't forgotten that time honoured saying of the sages, which clearly says that "the end justifys the means", so it's not about the start or how it started at all, but more about how it ends! Remember that Kim Kardashian West, turned an embarrassing sextape into the foundation of what has now become more than $350 million dollars worth and she also got her Kanye West too as a total package!

For those blaming Toke and raising up the religion/religious flag, what if she had discussed the issue first and foremost with her god and he had no issues whatsoever with such an expose? Secondly what if her pastor or man of god who she might have informed about it or that she has direct access to sees the expose as a none issue? Thirdly, what if she herself see the whole thing as a none issue, especially her conscience sees nothing wrong with the issue? Fourthly, what if those she counts as important and those are the only people of value to her, see nothing whatsoever wrong with the picture or expose? On the Fifth and last count, how in the world does it concern anyone, what an 'adult' does with her own life? Imagine that someone raised the issue of getting married, and our answer to that straight forward is, are you Toke? Whoever is going to marry her, naked or not, warts or no warts, that person would not necessarily care! At least we all live in this same world where it has been said over many centuries now that "Love is actually blind", even if it's not totally blind in some cases, one of the attributes of love is that, it forgives a multiple of sins, so showing naked body if its a sin of any kind in the 1st instance, would also be forgiven too!!!

We live in a small world now, where distances do not exist no more. We copy cultures and traditions like there's no divide whatsoever. To do the kind of picture that is raising that bit of hoopla is nothing whatsoever in those climes that we love to copy, so why copy some things and not copy it all? At least it's not yet a Playboy shoot!

In Toke's defense, if in 2014 she was still metamorphosing and looked like she is on that 2nd picture at the music award of that year, and now in 2018, she has actually finished her evolution and she is now this hot and stunning and a formidable role model now, what stops her from flaunting what she's got? Which is what she has actually done with the nude shot, that might not actually be fully nude in the real sense!

So check out the before and after yourself, all in just the space of 4 years. So if one can afford to look this good, then kudos dear, have your fun.

You deserve it, absolutely.

WHEN FIFI THE MOON ADDED A YEAR!






So yesterday, Friday, April the 13th, 2018 was the birthday of one of Nigeria's queen of beauty and lifestyle, in the person of Safia Fifi "the moon" Usman. And as part of the celebration to mark adding another year in good health and great shape, the boss of D Moon Spa dazzled all comers with this new set of photos above, confirming that she is the undisputed "queen" of beauty and that she's not taking no prisoners at all.

The well to do entrepreneur who has many of our stars, celebrities, elites on a speed dial by virtue of the services she provides for them looked mad hot in the pictures, sitting on her throne wearing her crown looking all shades of royalty, ruling her domain with imperious gorgeousness and grace.

In the 2nd picture of the 3, the blond bombshell showcased her badass shape in her black and white ensemble, killing it with the socks to make it look like a school wear themed shoot.

Her Spa named after the translation of  her name-Fifi the moon, has enjoyed unprecedented patronage since she opened the doors for business and is one of the busiest spas in Lagos bar none. People in great numbers have attested to the fact that she's probably one of the most qualified skin experts in Nigeria and she has numerous clients to prove it, who only swear by her. Infact, her clientele list reads like a virtual who-is-who of the society. So, many of those very gorgeous and in your face light skinned beauties, are mostly are clients. One of Fifi's best selling services we hear is the vagina flushing & steaming, 24 karat gold facials amongst several services they offer.

Happy belated birthday from us here at Maestro's Media!

...AND THE GORGEOUS BUTTERFLY IS NONE OTHER THAN?


Kiki Osinbajo
The current VP Professor Yemi Osinbajo, GCON and his lovely wife, Mrs. Dolapo Osinbajo has 2 lovely daughters. The eldest of the girls being the newly married Mrs. Oludamilola Bakare and the younger by name "Kiki Osinbajo", the entrepreneur who not too long ago opened her own business concern with loads of pomp, there's also the only boy.

Kiki is the subject of our attention and the impressive butterfly in the picture above. The young lady who only just added a year today, she's now 25 years old born March 18, 1993, after her sister's impressive though low-key wedding is the gorgeous maiden that wore the nice outfit with the butterfly flare to her sister's wedding yesterday.

The 5foot 1 inch petite beauty is the young CEO behind her own brand "Glam'd Africa, which is the umbrella brand that would house many brands/concessions like a conglomerate that the young entrepreneur would be unveiling gradually. Glam'd Africa Beauty House, one of the brands under the mother brand was opened for business sometime last year, September 2017 to be more precise and is a one stop venue for everything beauty related, be it make up, hair styling, clothing, nail art, skin care and sale of accessories.

Kiki's brand was prominently involved in major aspects of her sister's wedding. Kudos must be given the young lady for delivering a superb job in all ramifications, as Oludamilola and their mom, Mrs. Dolapo Osinbajo looked chic and elegant, without looking like a "pampered over made up peacock"! Even Kiki herself, the 2016 graduate of Law and Business Management from Aston University, Birmingham, United Kingdom, looked totally on point on her sister's very happy day.
