My Personal Update

Hi everyone, I hope everything is good with you all. I know that I have been away from my blog for a while. My last post was informing my readers of the personal tragedy of losing a loved one. I have not been open about his death because I needed to come to terms with the fact that he is no longer physically here.

My dad died from a strange illness when he came back from work, he was an entrepreneur and a very busy man yet he still made time for his family. When I heard of my dad passing, I was in my final year  preparing to write a 12, 000 word dissertation and going through other trivial issues. For the first month, of my dad's passing, I experienced a lot of pain, agony that caused  sleepless nights for me. During the day, I put up a brave face for my friends and class mates who knew of my tragedy. I hated feeling like the object of their sympathy or being weak even though i knew they were only trying to comfort me. After two months of my dad's passing, I started to have a bitter and complainant attitude in my prayers. I felt like I did not have everything that I wanted, so why should my father die? I accepted my father death rather too quickly in order to avoid the pain yet the pain became intense. It was only after hearing that an acquaintance of mine lost her loved one and it caused a lot of financial instability that I realized that my situation was not so bad after all. 

In this period of agony, God strengthened me to carry on with my school work and he showed me reasons to be grateful for being alive despite the trials I was facing. God used family, friends and people around me to comfort me in my grief and I slowly started to find reasons to be happy once again.

Despite the horrible trails I have faced, God helped me to cope with the situation and graduate from University. I have not been updating my blog because I was mourning, trying to complete my degree and I  was trying to figure out myself. My hope is that I will commit to this blog and engage with my readers. Leave your feedback in the comment section.

Here is a photo of I and my friend graduating. To God be the Glory

I Miss You

Dear Readers, it has been 7 months since I last wrote on this blog. It does feel like a lifetime ago. I had to stop blogging in other to get my thoughts right. Alot has happened to me for the last 7 months. I am grieving and still trying to be strong for myself and my loved ones. I am not one to share my personal life with the world but I consider my readers part of my life. I am not very open when it comes to these things but I will let you know in future posts how I have survived during these grieving times.

I love what my photographer Lydia did with these photos, I chose the concept and I loved how peaceful the environment is. I like my new hairstyle faux locs. For more information on my hairstyle, leave comments on this blog posts. 

Thanks for reading and stay blessed.

Best Wishes,

Laura Mercier- Founder Of The Primer

Greetings

Hey Everyone, how have you been? Well for me I am doing quite well. Last weekend, I had a nice time with my sister, bowling. That was my first time and I found it very interesting and a bonus arm workout [P.S for people who enjoy working out, you will like bowling but you may hate it because the ball is  heavy]. Also, I saw 22 Jump street with a friend a day before and I found Channing Tatum very funny and attractive as usual [P.S he has a wife and kids....hahaha he is taken!!!!] while Jonah Hill's character in the movie killed me with his personality. I digress, I am here to review Laura Mercier Primer and Tinted Moisturizer. Hopefully, this review will  help the readers find new products. Do not forget to leave your feedback in the comment section and follow me on my social media handles. Thank You.

About Laura Mercier 

Laura Mercier Cosmetics is created by Michele Mercier who is a renown international makeup artist who has worked with celebrities like Sarah Jessica Parker, Julia Roberts and Juliette Binoche and she has created flawless looks for these celebrities to wear on the red carpet. She gained her education at age 17 when she was in painting school in Paris. She decided to use her talent in painting skills in the beauty industry and she improved her skills by attending Carita School where she became a professional makeup artist and teacher. Laura Mercier is known to be the inventor of primer because she believes that, the appearance of your foundation depends on the primer.

About the product

The primer and tinted moisturizer retails for £29 and £34 respectively in your local House of Fraser, Debenhams and Harvey Nichols. You could purchase it from an Online Store, The packaging is very simple and classic. Both products has a chemical content of SPF 20 that protects the skin from the UVA and UVB radiations of the sun that causes skin problems. These products are oil-free yet provide hydration to the skin and the primer is suitable for all skin types.

Application, Appearance and Texture

Laura Mercier suggests that we use are fingertips to apply this product from the outer face to the inner face. This products has a light feel on the skin and has a natural appearance on the skin. The primer is so moisturizing and you could wear on its own while the tinted moisturizer has a light-medium coverage look on the face and you can use a foundation over it for a full coverage look. The appearance of these products is wonderful and gives an illusion of the no makeup-make up look. Overall, I love these products and I will repurchase it, if I ran out of it.

Thanks for reading and have a blessed day.

Best Wishes,

Peace.

On The Mountain Top 3

Story Time- I was reading Bella Naija a couple of days ago, I came across this story that touched my heart of a young lady who is frustrated with her love life and not meeting the right man for her. I thought to myself that, I have to make a response to her story. My dearie, I have 4 suggestions for you.

1. Pray about it: I know some of my viewers are not believers and I understand and respect your decision. However, the person I am speaking to is from a religious background. I believe a problem shared is half-solved, praying for guidance in choosing the right person to invest your time and effort is important.You do not need to settle for anyone who is not on the same page with you.Therefore, talk to God about it.
2. Love Yourself: How can you love someone without loving yourself? Thats my point, take good care of yourself and accept that you will never be perfect. Loving yourself should be seen in the way you carry yourself and the treatment you accept from others around you. In practical terms, decide how you should be addressed by significant others or how friends should speak to you.Once you start loving yourself, others will follow your lead.
3. Be Positive: Being positive will help you appreciate your life better and be happy with the things in your life. Stay away from toxic people who remind you of your shortcomings or things you do not have. Alot of these people are unhappy in their relationships yet they paint a fairy tale story of their lives on social media. I want you to surround yourself with positive family or friends who will encourage you to be your best.
4. Learn a new skill: You spoke about not having a job and still relying on your parents. This is a golden period in your life, to learn new skills that will help build your CV as well as self-confidence. Also, Mr Right will need more than a pretty face and hot body to consider investing his time and effort in you. Overall, learn to love yourself and enjoy your own company.
