Gifty's daughter + haul



































I first heard about Gifty's daughter after the Lagos makeup fair last year. I could not make it to the fair for a couple of reasons but from pictures and posts by bloggers who made it, it  was quite obvious  that  their stand was very popular. I wanted a couple of things from  them and the wanting only intensified when I discovered that they didn't have a store in Lagos. I think they came to the fair from port hacourt at the time.

They finally opened a store in Ikeja early this year, thank goodness!. I managed to squeeze out time on friday and to Ikeja I went, lol.

The store is located in 25a Toyin street, Ikeja. Its very close to water parks and shares the same fence with the Mr Biggs on that street. From the pictures above  you can tell that the place is literally NYX heaven. They also carry products from Ben nye, Wet n wild, fashion fair, Urban Decay, Ardell, Red Cherry, Nars, Z palette, Embryolisse etc. They also sell a lot of professional makeup equipment like makeup boxes, chairs, disposable brushes etc. The lady that I met in the store was well informed and very helpful. There is nothing that irritates me like walking into a store and discovering that the people who work there don't even know what half of the products they sell are used for.

 I picked up the wet n wild mega eyes cream liner. I ran out of my fluid line and mac doesn't have it in stock so I decided to try this. I've seen a lot of good reviews on this liner , a lot of people really believe that its comparable to  fluid line. I'll try it out and tell you guys what I think. I got  the Ben nye glitter glue (really really excited about this product)  and an NYX glitter in Disco ball. I also bought two pairs of Ardell wispies, an NYX lipgloss in pinky Natural and a Wet n Wild polish in I Red a good book.




                                                                 XOXO,

When I went to the store, it wasn't open yet. I canNOT believe it was the Gifty's Daughter store! Ahhhhh!! It looks amazingggg, those Z-palettes. Can't wait to visit. Thanks for the pictures Dimma! xx
