Beautiful Nigerian Makeup Styles for Every Occasion

To make an authentic traditional Nigerian makeup look, start with a base of light foundation and concealer. Then line the eyes with vibrancy and color, using natural tones like golds, browns, and purples for a classic and timeless look. Finish off the look by applying mascara, blusher to the cheeks, and flashing some lip gloss to get a glowing complexion.

The buzz around makeup and makeup styles has always taken a new and creative path each year.

Scrolling through social media posts, often my thumb has stopped on collages that draw comparison between images of makeup trends from the current and previous years.

Now, when we look back, there has been a sudden boom in the makeup industry with popular artists making a living out of their work. They can hold their own identities up because of their art. People know them for their work. No more are these artists’ lives all about making someone else pretty for the TV screen.
