Just a quick post to say hello (or shall I say “How far?” ) from Nigeria.

I’m on holiday (finally!) and have been hanging out with the family and following the Occupy Nigeria Movement (national strike and fuel subsidy removal protests).

Of course, I’ve been working on getting the beauty scoop for you guys as well — Naija Beauty post to come!

And, as you remember Weaves are Big Business in Nigeria…

Soooo, I decided to do as the Romans do and borrow one of my sisters wigs to be wearing around.

Still not quite used to it though!

Anyhoo, I won’t be blogging regularly for a little bit, but I will be active on Twitter, so check me out (@Beauty365).

I’d love to hear how are you guys enjoying the new year! Leave a comment and let me know

Bye Bye, Beauties!

xx,
Ugochi

One Editor’s Experience on the “Crazy, Sexy Detox”

Clearer skin, a thinner waistline and shiny hair might just be a cleanse away. See whether our beauty editor felt “crazy sexy” after this detox

With the hundreds of cleanses out there, it’s hard to figure out which ones actually work and are right for you. So, we had one of our editors try the “Crazy, Sexy Detox” for 21 days — read about her experience and see if this diet is right for you.

See diet

In my opinion, summer should never end (#pipedreams). So, I was inspired to create a fun summery outfit. Crop top, maxi skirt and t-strap sandals…ahh, summer.

So, what do you think of my outfit?!

You can get the deets on all the items in the set here, but the gem of the outfit is obviously the Loeffler Randall Multicolor T-Strap Sandal. Yum.

I’m still in SA (that’s me in wine country below) and have obviously not been blogging steadily (sorry!). Things are great here and I will get back to Beauty 365 as soon as I am able!

Dearest readers…I’ll be blogging from Cape Town, South Africa for the next few weeks. I’m here for a fantabulous study abroad program examining community health from a public health perspective. So, don’t fret if I update a wee bit less frequently.

Of course, I’ve been trolling around Clicks (the drugstore) and Pick n Pay (the grocery store) and examining their beauty and personal care aisles Pictures to come soon…but for now check out the World Cup remnants on discount that we spotted the other day.

As they say in Zulu, Salani kahle (goodbye)!
