Leaking wall fixed (thanks to the fantastic work of Kevin and the team at SBP. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough).
Garden on its way. Today I finished making a trellis for a climbing rose out of scrap wood in the garage. And about 40 attempts to mount the thing on the wall. I finally succeeded using No More Nails (Outdoor version). Like the rest of the house, it looks scrappy but it’s holding! In the past year I have planted umpteen shrubs, herbs and perennials and although the garden is still overrun with weeds (buttercups are tenacious little bastards), I love it. Never thought I’d ever enjoy gardening.
Next room to be tackled is the sitting room. Plan is to sand the walls down, lining paper and white emulsion and sanded floors. Simple but pretty.
This is going to be a very quick post. The eye makeup is the only thing that stands out in this look so i will
aww, thank you melissa so are you. The way your natural lashes are pretty much dictates how easy lash application will be for you. I have very curly lashes and it makes lash application difficult for me at times.. The only good advice I can give right now is to make sure the lash glue becomes tacky before applying the lashes. I use the ardell lashgrip adhesive and when using it I wait for like a minute before it gets tacky. It all depends on the glue. I hope this was helpful.xxx

So I want to start this post with a disclaimer, I did not go to make up school o! I do not have any kind professional training whatsoever when it comes to makeup. I always get the where did you learn to makeup question and I always reply youtube, youtube and lots of practice. I still have a lot to learn but God dey.
I started playing around with makeup because I used to have very bad skin. I was breaking out a lot at the time so I thought that covering everything up with makeup was going to solve the problem (boy was I wrong, smh) It took me a while to realise that for makeup to actually look good, your skin had to look good.
From the pictures above, you guys can clearly see that I have a friend from Imo state who is almost white, freckles and all (odiegwu). The shade of foundation that I used on her face, I probably won't be touching in a long time. Me and my baby Udoka go way back, having a friend who has always been there since your JSS1 is not beans, lol. She was like Dimma are you sure that red lipstick will look good on me? I literally wanted to pinch her mouth. O makwa ka osi acha? (does she know how fair she is) kilode? Green lipstick would look good on her!

I seem to have an aversion to make-up (a frequent topic of argument with my mum!)......you are talented and passionate when it comes to make-up. maybe it should be more than just a hobby for you ;¬)
Words cannot express how much i love your make up skills, I have learnt some tips from you and I must say that you are skilled in this craft. I like the way you made her up and as most YouTube gurus say Mac Ruby Woo goes with all skin tones. The make up is beautiful
Love your disclaimer... it made this post down to earth. I must say i like the freckles on your friend's face, i think freckles are added beauty features. The make-up is also lovely and i feel it will even be much more lovelier when she gets just a tiny little bit oily on the face. I love my make-ups like an hour after. I think you guys should also experiment with making up with her freckles still showing a bit.... :)
Dimma you are gifted and Udoka looks like you especially when she looks down ;-) Keep going doll, you don't need school. Holy Spirit dong teach you all tin! hugs
