Take a Peek into the world of Grazelle!


 Makeup artistry…Photography…Events Coordination
 ‘Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life’ -Confucius

Oh yeah! Confucius was right, and I have infused this belief into my bloodstream and my entire being! Trust me, there’s nothing as good as doing what you love! From the days of practically ‘pasting’ white powder on my face as a child, and looking like what children of my days call ‘ojuju Calabar’ (I wonder what brought about that terminology? LOL!); to my secondary school days where you see babes lining their lips with BLACK eye pencils and rubbing Vaseline on our eyelids for it to shine! (Seriously, let me know if you did this! Hahahahahaha!) We really thought we were hot and sexy oh!!!!

I also remember taking pictures with manual cameras and looking for where to print them, and of course we always asked for the negatives so that no one would steal our pictures!!!! I confess that I looked for every opportunity to throw a party or ‘small get-together’ (which never turned out to be small!)…… Whew! There’s a lot to write about and reminisce about the good old days. Nevertheless, going back to our inspiring quote by Confucius; the love for makeup, photography, and planning of events which were, and are still fun stuff for me, have given birth to GRAZELLE MAKEOVERS!

Keep checking this blog for more interesting stuff! Okay, it’s time to take a break from all of my grammar! I’m going to allow you take a peek at some photos….Let’s call this a ‘preview’ of the Grazelle brand!

Making up in 2013!!!

Wow! The year 2013 is here, and I believe this year has a lot of good stuff just waiting to be grabbed as the months go by! Hmm.........how can I makeup for the past years? Well, that is something that I have to sit back and consider in my little corner! Nonetheless! there will be lots of making up to do in terms of beauty this year. You know what I mean......powder.....foundation.......mascara.......etc! Come to think of it! I just remembered FALSE EYELASHES!!!!!! I was in my village for the new  year, and I realized that even the village chics are patrons (or should i call them matrons) of false eyelashes, and that is not to mention the color blocking fashion! LOL! 

Anyway, 2013 is gonna be packed with a lot of events, and I intend to showcase lots of pictures featuring different types of makeup, events and amazing photography! Check this blog for more PHOTOTASTIC info! Ciao!
