The "no money" syndrome.

If you are a babe with the love for fashion, food, makeup and the finer things in life, you will definitely know what I am talking about. I'm sure every girl has had this fantasy of being able to have the things in magazines by just wishing it into existence.

Now the harsh reality !!!!

NO MONEY

Like lil wayne said "too much money ain't enough money"

Sigh, being a girl is so expensive, for real lets take an example. this is me right here. lets start......
1. HEAD
weaves, serum, edge control, relaxer, straightener, bendy rollers, curler, tail comb, big comb, paddle brush, hair spray, hair mousse, shampoo (one for natural hair and one for weaves), conditioner (normal conditioner and leave-in conditioner)
2. FACE
now this is the main thing because guys are moved by what they see. note that this face ehn its divided into two parts
a) face care
b)face beautification

Face care
soap, face wash, toner, cleanser, moisturizer, cleaning pads, face wipes, scrub, exfoliator, steamer, face mask (natural or artificial), face milk, face oil

Face beautification
This department is divided into quite a lot as well but let me just add it all.... i'm starting with the base and taking it to the finish. Let's go

Milk of magnesia, oil free mattifying primer, brow filler , brow pencil, brow comb, angle brush , angle blending brush, concealer (like 3 different shades) , eye shadow primer, eye shadow pallete (like 8), eye shadow brushes, eye shadow blending brush, eye shadow precision brush, eye liner, eye pencil, highlighter, mascara, 3d mascara, eye lash curler, false lashes (red cherry of course...), foundation, mattyfying foundation, foundation brush, blending brush, beauty blender sponge(s), contour kit, blush, blush brush, bronzer, fan brush, powder, powder brush for full coverage, powder brush for air brushed effect, lip liner, lip primer, lip plumper, lipsticks (mac cost o), mist and set spray, contact lens, contact solution

3. UPPER BODY
also divided into two sections oo
a) upper body care
b) upper body beautification

upper body care
body scrub, soap, bath oil, bath milk, bath sponge, exfoliating sponge, body oil, body splash, perfume, deodorant , hand cream, cuticle cream, nail file, nail polish, anti fungal oil, body cream (toning, brightening, whitening, half - caste cream, Russian white all of these with carrot oil, argan oil, vitamin e, goat milk, snake oil, Mexican tree oil etc)

upper body beautification
push up bra, tops, dresses, necklaces, bracelet, bangles, watches, rings, waist cincher, waist trainer, girdle (common we all wear tueh), waist beads, body glitters, body shimmer


4.LOWER BODY
vaginal wash, vagina wipes, vaginal powder, shaving cream, shaving stick, sanitary towels, tampons, pain relievers. various forms of sexy underwear, then period underwear too, butt lifter, bum bum pad, hip pad, trousers (palazzo, jeans, turn up, midi pants etc), skirts ( skater, straight, flared, peplum etc), shoes (slippers , sandals, flats, heels, trainers), dresses (maxi, bodycon, skater, tunic, shift,  jumpsuit, playsuit etc)

MISCELLANEOUS
bags, purses, clutch purses, totes, nightwear, gym wear, face towel, body towel, gym towel, toothpaste, toothbrush, mouth wash, mouth spray, dental floss, whitening toothpaste.




I'm sure I left out a lot but this generally gives you an idea. Bear In mind these things don't come cheap. black up is different from jordana, mac lipstick is different from island beauty so you get my drift. And later one guy somewhere would ask me what I need money for!! Like seriously, what do I need money for?

The cheapest of the above listed here is like 200naira and as a youngling in this generation, majority of these things are needed to look good and feel good.

AND GUYS... WHAT DO THEY NEED

SOAP
TOOTHPASTE
DEODORANT
BOXERS
INNER SHIRT
2 SOCKS
1 BLACK SHOE 1 BROWN SHOE
1 SLIPPERS
9 POLOS
4 SHIRTS
2 TROUSER
2 JEANS
1 PERFUME (TOM FORD)
WRISTWATCH (MICHEAL KORS)
HAIRCUT (200 NAIRA maximum 1500)
lool I know I left a lot out but trust me these are the basic needs of a guy.



Anyway to wrap it up here's a quote by one of my favourite characters on the popular show "Single Ladies"....

"I KNOW WE MAKE IT LOOK EASY BUT THIS MUCH FABULOUSNESS DOESN'T COME CHEAP AND REQUIRES EFFORT"


A free pure derm facial cleansing wipes for anyone who can guess who said the quote above

  1. No wonder I'm considered a "dead" babe. Don't use half of what is mentioned up there. But being a girl is so much work. Most guys are fine with a toothbrush and a bar of soap. If they are vain they use a different cream for their hair and body. Okay maybe I'm exaggerating but toy get my drift.
