Drumroll please..... At Number one we have:
1.) THE BiL DIRECTORY
Now I know this isn't really a discovery, seeing as I created and run it. BUT, I feel as though it's still a discovery and I can't really explain it.
My initial idea was to create an online beauty directory, but I felt why would anyone trust the businesses listed? So I decided to start a blog, review beauty establishments around town, get the blog to act like a tried-and-tested directory, THEN start working on and designing my online directory.
I wish there had been something of this sort when I moved back to Lagos, and I really hope the directory has been of some use to most of you guys.
I would like to say a HUGE thank you to all the businesses that took a chance with me and decided to get listed on the directory, without you all there will be no directory, literally.
I have big big plans for 2015, already in talks to upgrade the site, going to get 100+ businesses listed before the end of 2015.
Thank you so much to every single one of you that has been part of my Beauty In Lagos journey all through 2014. I have got a 4-phase plan for BiL phase 1 is this here blog, successfully launched phase 2 in 2014, looking to launch 3 in 2015! Will definitely share all the information in due course...
Please visit THE BiL DIRECTORY for all your beauty needs. We've got hair vendors, makeup vendors, spas, nail salons etc. listed.
Be safe wherever you are tonight, be merry, be happy and most importantly remember to be extremely humbled and grateful to be here! Speak to you all in the New Year and once again THANK YOU!
Lots of love,
Ez xxX

Hi BIL, good job your doing here really, helping us out with loads of info, thank you. Please if this won't be so much of a bother, do u know any store that deals on Lancome, Chanel, NYC products? And also the Kat von D lock it tattoo foundation.... I deal on makeup products but most times my clients want exclusive brands and I don't always know how to get it for them here in Lagos cos I don't wanna order online. Please do help me out, will be most grateful. Thank you again
ReplyDeleteHi! You're welcome :)
DeleteThe makeup stores listed on the Directory should have a few of these products. They also offer a service where you can order in what you want through them. Gifty's Daughter (not yet listed) also have a very broad selection of cult makeup brands. Just search 'Gifty's Daughter' in the search box on the blog for address and details. :)
