LUPITA N'YONGO LANDS LANCOME GIG

This is a super fantastic year for Lupita! It's has been recognition galore for the gorgeous Kenyan bombshell winning much accolades for her style choices on the red carpets, from awards nominations and wins (Oscar winner, Screen Actors Guild, NAACP award etc) now to becoming the new face of cosmetics & skincare giant Lancome. 


The world recognized french cosmetics & skincare giant announced the good news yesterday- Friday, April 4, 2014, that one of the most recognizable face in the movie industry right now,  has now become their brand ambassador. 

Kudos to the gorgeous African queen and a good one again for Africa. At least in the face of some bleaching the best out of the skin to become as white as possible, some are still staying true to themselves and still getting good recognitions for doing so.

According to Lupita herself, ''What appealed to me about Lancome is that they are not dictating what beauty is'' ''Hopefully it's a symbiotic relationship''-That I benefit from being associated with them, and they benefit from being associated with me, as well. And for the consumer at large, I think Lancome has a range of products for every woman, and I think having me will expand people's understanding of, hopefully, what Lancome stands for, who Lancome is for. 

With this deal, Lupita becomes the first ever black ambassador of Lancome. She follows in the foot steps of other Oscar winners, the likes of Kate Winslet, Penelope Cruz & Julia Roberts.

Lancome spokesperson had this to say- Their decision to tap Lupita was because she's ''talented and and committed, true to her African beauty, showing a great curiosity and open-mindedness in her career choices''

TEMI DOLLFACE SCORES ANOTHER COVER- SEE THE GORGEOUS STAR ON BEAUTY BOX

TEMI DOLLFACE

DENCIA

Many can dispute it, but please always remember that to each his/her own, to us Temi Dollface is one of the most naturally beautiful Nigerian we have come across in a while. Not only just that, her very eclectic sense of style; making vintage look super hot and coveted endears her to us so much. 


The emerging music star is our delight any day, even her style is also different when it comes to music. She is the star personality on the cover of the resurgent Beauty Box Magazine, which is one of the publication under the True Tales Umbrella that includes Hint, Complete Fashion Magazine & Hello! Nigeria. A change of hands at the helms of affairs seem to have injected the much needed energy back into the publications. Now this team seem to have hit the ground running and to us have scored a good slam-dunk with this particular edition. Kudos peeps! 

And we expect more pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!

This cover we believe is one of their best in a long while and to make up for lost times, this particular edition of Beauty Box seem to have been made a bumper edition, to super garnish the cover and the personality on it, another star, albeit Cameroonian this time around is one of the other main feature. We are glad to introduce to the world again, one of the most ''pneumatically enhanced'' lady (after Lil Kim) we have ever come across in the person of the US based star wannabe Reprudencia, but better known to the whole world as ''D.E.N.C.I.A .  As much as one might have a bit of reservation about some of her antics, one cannot begrudge her the fact that ''her never say die attitude'' has gotten her to where she is now. Does the noise match the talent? We do not know yet. So if her route to stardom is the (''Lil Kimmish'' kinda way) it's her life, so dearie please have your fun. Bleach more and enhance more!

Before we run too far and too fast, this is what the publishers have to say about their 1st edition for 2014-

The prize the lucky winner was to get is a million Naira salary, a brand new Geely car donated by Geely Motors & an all expenses paid trip to Dubai, UAE courtesy of a free flight ticket from Emirates Airline. With such a massive prize to compete for all the girls knew it was going to be a battle royale to get the crown, so they had on their game apparel. 

The host & the hostess at the event were the duo of Yvonne 'Vixen' Ekwerre who was looking red hot in her black outfit with a peekaboo sheer panel at the chest area, showing off her stunning silhouette, the outfit was made by Rikaoto and she finished off her outfit with a beautiful pair of Christian Louboutin. She was ably assisted by Chris Okagbue, the Gulder Ultimate Man winner for 2011 and they both did a great job, holding everyone spellbound with their delivery and injection of jokes whenever needed.

The 12 girls came out showing off different types of hair from the Sylvia's hair range with plenty of swags, tossing the hair here and there, thereafter they changed into dinner outfits by Rikaoto owned by Mariam Elisha, truth be told they all looked stunning, we are so sure it made the selection of the best 8 difficult for the judges. At the end of the day from 12 the girls were narrowed down to 8 then 3-Annabella Iheukwumere, a former Miss Nigeria 2013 contestant, Tejiri Akpochafo & Love Ikah.

GHANAIAN STAR ACTRESS YVONNE NELSO NOW THE FACE OF ZARON

Away from all the shenanigan about her broken relationship with 'Your Waist' crooner Mr. Iyanya Mbuk. Away from all the bitterness and other kind of emotions that has brought to fore, now on to better things. The gorgeous Ghanaian bombshell has just being signed as the new face of Zaron Cosmetics. 

Yvonne is now the brand representative in West Africa. As par what the endorsement is worth, we do not know. But we know for sure that for any occasion/event that the gorgeous actress would be attending, she's going to be made up by Zaron Cosmetics. 

The make-up brand has grown in leaps & bounds in the few years of her existence and with this endorsement deal with Yvonne Nelson, we believe it's a statement from the brand to others in the same league to take notice. Why the choice of Yvonne and not another one, we do not know. But one thing that must have counted for her must have been because she's a fresh face that has not yet being 'over branded'. So it's no more your waist, your waist, but now your face, your face, all I want is your face: Yvonne Nelson..................

Congratulations to her and now on to bigger & better deals aka MTN, GLO or Samsung.
