The natural skincare wonder : Oriflame.

I recently purchased a range of oriflame skin care products. I decided to do a review and maybe it could help a sister or more out there who constantly battle with pimples, blemish, acnes, black spots and oily skin.

Last year, I found out that products made with natural ingredients such as shea butter, coconut oil, tea tree oil, honey, lemon juice, carrot oil are friendly on our skins.

I had a chance to attend a business seminar in Abuja who had beauty entrepreneurs talk to us. I am not in the beauty business but as a woman, I love beauty products and I am always willing to learn how to take care of my skin in a healthy way.

One of the entrepreneurs mentioned that as women, we need to research the ingredients used in making the skin care products we use. I just buy, I never check what they are made from and a lot of ladies are like me. With my new found knowledge, I always make out time to research and understand the benefits of the ingredients used in my skin and hair products. Everyone in my personal life knows I am transitioning to natural hair, since I 've been chemical free, I 've been able to appreciate natural ingredients more.

If you have an oily skin, it only means like me, you suffer from enlarged pores, blackheads and a shiny complexion. Hence it requires gentle but thorough cleansing of impurities. I started using black soap, which is perfect for my body and complexion.

However, I need a good body lotion and facial cleanser made with natural ingredients to compliment my soap. Stumbled on Oriflame and I am completely satisfied with the results. Oriflame is a sweden skin care and beauty company.

I use Oriflame Love nature tea tree oil face lotion, which is easy to absorb and provides a lightweight hydration for my face.


I also use "love nature tea tree oil blemish solver", which helps to dry out and clear blemishes. For my body, I use Happy skin, which is another famous skincare product under the Oriflame brand, it has a lovely smell, it is good for normal as well as dry skins and contains sesame oil which is a natural ingredient.




Oriflame has a range of other lovely skincare products suitable for different skin types and ages.

There is nothing more pleasant than letting your skin experience the beauty of nature. Oriflame has given me the value for my money.

Because Jesus lives... Happy Easter!

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Who is He? He introduced himself in John 14:6.

Today's Easter service seemed to be for me. It felt like God decided to speak to me through the pastors who preached the sermon.

I have celebrated Easter several times but this year, I clearly understand the significance of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It gives me a new form of peace knowing that when He died, He beared the brunt of my sins, cares, burdens, frustrations, worries, all other negative effects of sin and He traded it for everlasting life, peace, joy, happiness, good health, hope, love and so much more.

It doesn't matter how the world treats you or me, it doesn't matter if today or the past seems annoyingly bleak, it doesn't matter if people or the devil persecute you for no just reasons, it doesn't matter if you are mocked for believing in Jesus Christ, it doesn't matter if life has scared you, you need to know that the enemy trembles every time because Jesus lives forever and He has paid all the debt we owe, He has shamed the enemy and removed our name from the book of death and included it in the book of life.

As long as we continue to believe and hold unto Jesus Christ, we will keep winning. Jesus won the battle a long time ago. We are more than conquerors when we believe.

Happy Easter beautiful people, He lives!!!

Tales of an entrepreneur: Road to women’s business growth

February and March has been a "busy bee" month for team MFC. We are thankful for all the heavenly favours and awesome people who continue to believe in our vision for Mi'De Fashion County.

I have not had a chance to blog lately, so I thought it would be nice to check up on my virtual friends (smiling as I type).  How have you been?

We were recently selected to be part of the Road to Women’s Business Growth Programme sponsored by the Cherie Blaire Foundation and ExxonMobil in partnership with EDC. I had a chance of learning more on accounting and finance in general.



The project was delivered via a unique blended learning approach which combined in-class learning with online e-modules. It is absolutely blissful to be a financial literate, especially when you are a business owner.
First day of in-class training. Floral skirt by Mi'De Fashion County. 
Lesson learned during this project: Take responsibility for your personal and professional development.
