If you’ve ever applied blush and thought, “Why do I look more flushed than snatched?”   you’re not alone. Blush is one of those makeup steps that seems simple until you realise that where you place it makes all the difference, especially when you have a round face. Round faces are known for their soft curves and full cheeks; beautiful, youthful, and naturally symmetrical. But if you’re trying to add a little dimension or create the illusion of a more sculpted look, blush can be your best friend when used strategically. So where should it go? Spoiler alert: probably not just the apples of your cheeks   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Taffy Dube (@beautywithtaffy_) The post The Best Blush Placement for Round Faces According to Beauty With Taffy appeared first on BN Style.

They’re also easy to spice up — think suya pepper, onions, garlic, crayfish, or even a dash of scotch bonnet if you’re feeling bold.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Diaryofakitchenlover (@diaryofakitchenlover) The post Chef T’s Beans and Plantain Balls Are The Perfect Starter appeared first on BN Style.

Acne is not just pimples and blackheads; it is an inflammatory skin disorder that disrupts the hair follicles and oil glands in the skin. The truth is your diet affects your skin, and one of the major disruptors to healthy skin is sugar. The Sugar Connection There’s a consensus among dermatologists that sugary foods can contribute to acne. According to The Phoenix Surgical Dermatology Group, this is due to sugar leading to an increase in insulin levels, which in turn can increase the production of sebum, the oily substance that blocks pores and leads to acne. Watch out for foods like refined sugar, candy, desserts, sweetened cereals, soda, and juice, which have high sugar and high glycaemic indices. Low-Glycaemic Diet and Acne A report from the American Academy of Dermatology stated that following a low-glycaemic diet may reduce the amount of acne you have. Examples of low-glycaemic foods are fresh vegetables, fruits, beans, and oats. This is because they reduce blood sugar spikes, which cause inflammation, excess oil production and acne. In a 12-week study in Australia, 43 males with acne aged 15-25 years followed a low-glycaemic diet, and at the end of the 12 weeks, they had less acne […] The post Did You Know Too Much Sugar Can Cause Acne? appeared first on BN Style.

The amazing thing about her fashion excursion is how she’s been repping Nigerian fashion designers every step of the way.

In popular culture, blue is often associated with boys, while pink is typically linked to girls. That’s why during baby showers, when the gender of the baby is revealed, it’s usually blue for boys and pink for girls. When we were little, this colour dichotomy was seen in the things our parents bought for us, which would either lead girls to like or hate the colour pink.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Nancy.E.Isime (@nancyisimeofficial) When I saw this picture of Nancy Isime in a pink blazer and an all-pink look, complete with a pink bow, I thought of how the colour was so feminine, yet she wore it to a business meeting to seal a partnership. Many women may want to wear black, grey, or brown for corporate and corporate casual events because pink may seem too loud or too feminine, or they would think they would look like a Barbie doll, and no one would take them seriously. But save for a job interview, where you need to look as neutral as possible, wearing pink is actually a good thing.

Gone are the days when we had to skip wearing that dress because our regular bras just didn’t cut it. Boob tape is the fashion hack that’s been saving cleavage, creating lift, and making every dress look flawless. But here’s the thing, not all boob tape applications are created equal. Depending on the style of your outfit, you need the right taping method for both comfort and a seamless finish. Here’s your guide to taping techniques based on 7 different types of outfits: The Deep Plunge Neckline (V-Neck/Plunge Dress) For dresses with a deep plunge or V-neckline, the vertical lift method works wonders. Cut three to four long strips of boob tape for each breast. Starting from under the bust, pull each strip up vertically and stick it firmly over your shoulder or higher up on your chest to create lift. For a natural look, slightly angle the strips toward the centre of your chest. This technique lifts and secures the breasts while leaving the centre of the chest bare, perfect for that daring neckline. Always start by applying nipple covers to protect sensitive areas before taping. The Strapless Dress When wearing a strapless dress, go for the bandeau wrap […] The post How to Wear Boob Tape for Every Kind of Dress: 7 Game-Changing Techniques appeared first on BN Style.

Ever used a comb on your hair, just to see it falling out like you just used a barber’s clipper? Experiencing hair shedding, whether your hair is natural, relaxed or transitioning, often indicates a need for protein treatment. Since hair is primarily composed of keratin, a protein vital for its structure, texture, and growth, protein treatments are a highly effective solution for rejuvenating damaged hair experiencing protein loss. According to studies published in the National Library of Medicine, while a consistent intake of protein is needed for healthy hair, insufficient protein in your diet, frequent use of chemicals and heat styling tools can deplete your hair’s essential protein. This often results in hair that feels dry, looks dull, and is prone to breakage. Protein treatments are hightly recommended by dermatologists to help minimise breakage and bring back your hair’s vitality .   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by G A R S H E L L (@garshellm) Here’s a straightforward, nourishing protein recipe you can make at home This home-made protein treatement by napturally curly has all the essential natural ingredients your hair needs.

If your makeup tends to melt off before lunchtime or starts slipping after a few hours, chances are it’s not your makeup products,  it’s your skin prep. Great makeup starts with great skin preparation, and we’re letting you in on the full routine to help your makeup stay fresh, flawless, and longer-lasting. Step 1: Cleanse (2 minutes) First things first, you want a clean canvas. Start with a gentle cleanser to wash away excess oil, sweat, or leftover skincare. This helps your products layer better and prevents clogged pores later. Step 2: Tone (2 minutes) Next, sweep on a balancing toner. This helps to tighten pores, balance your skin’s pH, and prep your skin to fully absorb the next products you’re going to apply. Don’t skip, it’s the secret to that smooth, makeup-ready base.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by BellaNaija Beauty (@bellanaijabeauty) Step 3: Hydrate (5 minutes) Now, it’s time to bring in the hydration.

Inspired by the album Words and Music by the iconic British band Saint Etienne, Udiahgebi’s latest collection of the same name draws from the deep well of memory, music, and the passage of time. Much like the music that inspired it, Saint Etienne is a coming-of-age story told from the POV of a nostalgic narrator who acknowledges the uncertainty of time but her commitment to living through it and seeing every bit of the world and life unapologetically. The silhouettes rely on versatility ranging from garments cut for ease and beauty of movement that still highlight form with grown subtlety and also our signature second skin fit. Utilizing fabrics that travel well; lush crepes, denim, jersey, and silks “Saint Etienne” is a grown offering that tries to communicate the power of effortless confidence, and sophistication while still taking into consideration the feel of the garments on the wearer.

In a time when fashion is increasingly about storytelling, few designers are telling stories as boldly or as beautifully as Benard Samuel.

Nigerian fashion house Bibi Lawrence introduces its latest ready-to-wear collection, AGU & Other Stories, a poetic journey through identity, memory, and the modern African woman’s silhouette. Creative Director, Bibi Eleh, draws inspiration from her girlhood in Lagos, weaving nostalgic memories with contemporary African artistry. The result: a vibrant yet soulful collection that feels both deeply rooted and fashion-forward. At the heart of AGU & Other Stories is a custom print designed by Bibi herself, reimagining iconic Nigerian symbols, the regal Isiagu and the ancient Uli markings into a bold visual language of femininity and power. These motifs are layered onto silk, mikado, and mesh, sculpted into structured bodices, fluid skorts, ruched dresses, and voluminous silhouettes. “This collection is for the girl who remembers her mother’s wrapper, the sound of evening prayers, and the rhythm of danfo buses on her way to school, fetching water across the street while singing the latest afrobeat song. It’s an ode to the resilience, softness, and audacity of the African woman”, says Bibi. Shot in Lagos, the campaign captures the spirit of storytelling through cinematic visuals and intentional styling—an editorial-worthy blend of past and present. Every piece tells a story: tactile, intentional, unforgettable.

Every few years, the natural hair movement declares another victory. A brand launches a “curl-defining” product line. A TV ad features a model with a beautiful afro. A celebrity goes makeup-free and shows off her “authentic self.” But somehow, for Black women with 4C hair, the tightest, kinkiest, most coiled texture, the war for full acceptance always ends in a quiet, weary stalemate. Because let’s be honest: when the world says “natural hair,” it usually means “curly, but not too kinky.” It means a soft halo of ringlets, a manageable puff, something that still fits into the mainstream’s idea of beautiful, just with a little edge. 4C hair? That’s where the celebration often stops. That’s where the applause turns into silence, or worse, subtle shade. A woman on Twitter recently shared how she lost a content creation gig because the brand asked, “Why is your hair like that?” Her hair was in a sleek ponytail. No frizz. No mess. Just neat, natural, and even relaxed. That question, delivered with a smile but soaked in bias, said everything. It wasn’t about professionalism. It was about comfort. Their comfort. Not hers. And that’s the heart of it. Every time Black women with […] The post Why the Natural Hair Conversation Always Ends in a Stalemate for Black Women with 4C Hair appeared first on BN Style.

South African musical superstar  Tyla hosted the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards 2025. One of her outfits paid a homage to none other than fashion and music icon  Beyoncé. For her hosting duties, she was styled by Law Roach for the second time, and she wore a Roberto Cavalli minidress from their 2006 collection and Rene Caovilla heels.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Nickelodeon (@nickelodeon) This isn’t just any dress; Beyoncé famously debuted the same outfit during a performance 19 years ago, and that’s truly a testament to the timelessness of Beyoncé’s style. The dress itself is a short, strapless chiffon number featuring a vibrant yellow ombre that blends into orange, accentuated by a shiny ribbon detail at the front. It’s quintessential Y2K style perfectly aligns with Tyla’s fashion aesthetic. The post Tyla Channels Beyoncé at Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards 2025 appeared first on BN Style.
