When most makeup brands started they are more into creating more natural products for consumers. Most foundations had a kind of dewy finishing before a lot of customers and clients started asking for something that won’t trigger their facial oil. Hence, the birth of water-based products.
However, the truth remains that most oil-based products do have more coverage than water-based products. Also, oil-based products are transferable and can get messed up. Oil-based products are mostly good for people with dry skin, as their skin can easily absorb the oil and moisturize them. The Nigerian makeup industry has put a lot into consideration when making their products just to suit the country’s climate and be adaptable. They go as far as creating a testing environment and getting opinions on the feel of the products before going ahead with production. Now it seems there’s a new obsession trend going on. The makeup artists are now more into the glow, glow and, more glow and they will get creative just to get exactly what they want.
The new trend is mixing oil with blush for a more glowing finish on clients. We have seen videos of this art and are quite mesmerized at how the oil finishing makes the look more appealing. Here begs the question, how lasting are these looks? We know the Nigerian weather might be quite sunny, but how will this look last, and be durable, the whole idea of makeup is durability. Will the oil cause the makeup to be
transferable? What sort of oils is compatible with this type of look? These are questions that come to mind when we look at the trend.
