MY EXTENSIONZ SALON IN LEKKI

My Extensionz is a popular American virgin hair extensions company that launched a flagship store in Lagos about a year ago. Known for their exclusive 100% fine virgin hair and 100% Siberian Mink Lashes, they are now transitioning into also offering beauty services by launching their own Salon.

I went in to the salon last week to have a look and also try out their services. Let me tell you, this space is GORGEOUS! I got my hair treated and was pleasantly surprised to learn how knowledgeable my hairstylist was. I got a wash, scalp treatment and a careful blowdry to stretch out my new growth. It was a relaxing experience and would definitely be going back soon.

Have a look at the pictures below.

The new My Extensionz Salon offers a range of beauty services which include: Nail Services, Laser Teeth Whitening, Wig Making, Installations, Hair Wash, Body Waxing, Massages and many more.

COLORS BY RL NAIL LOUNGE IN LEKKI

Most people tend to think I only visit certain places to share on BiL, and they are indeed right! With the 'Out and About' series my intention is to showcase the Lagos people don't know about! I want people to go "Oooh, you mean this is available in Lagos!?". I genuinely enjoy discovering new beauty spots and today's location is literally a dream! Colors by RL isn't any ordinary Nail Salon, I'd actually refer to it as a Nail Spa. All their pedicures start from the knee down..... SOLD! I was particularly intrigued by a super cool offering they've got, called 'Pedi-In-A-Box'. Which is quite literally a pedicure in a box. Everything you need for a deluxe pedicure experience is provided in these little hand-size boxes. A 4-step treatment that includes: soak salts, scrubs, foot mask and lotion! They've also got a pedicure called 'Coffee Delight' which includes a coffee scrub, y'all know how I feel about coffee for the skin!

They've also got deluxe manicures which include a collagen mask for your hands. Honestly guys, if you love to indulge in your nails (like I do), this is the spot for you! I'll be going back in for a deluxe manicure and pedicure soon and will be sure to share my experience! For now enjoy the pictures of this gorgeous space!

YVES ROCHER NOW AVAILABLE IN NIGERIA

So this week I'm taking 'BiL Out and About' to ABUJA! Yves Rocher No. 1 cosmetic brand in France just opened it's first store in Nigeria, at Jabi Lake Mall, Abuja. If you are like me and are struggling with the pronunciation it's 'Eve-Roshay'. I've got pictures of the new store as well as some shots from their launch event, but first let me share a little information about the brand.

Yves Rocher's philosophy is to work in harmony with the environment, as each tree and each plant does with nature. The botanical beauty brand offers a range of skincare and fragrances composed of natural and vegetal ingredients, for both men and women. The brand's commitment to botanical beauty ensures that every ingredient and formula is guaranteed to be safe and effective. All active ingredients in Yves Rocher products are extracted from plants.

Have a look at the pictures below!

INVIVO HEALTH & BEAUTY

So the other day, I went to check out what can only be described as our version of Boots/CVS. Invivo Health & Beauty isn't new, I actually heard about this store 2years ago, but never got round to visiting it. I am glad I finally did and I was literally blown away by this store! Everything is laid out nicely, spacious aisles, pleasant staff and very reasonably priced products. I gave a live tour whilst there over on my snapchat (Username: BeautyInLagos), and I kept getting tweets and comments asking if this store was actually here in Lagos!

One thing I want you guys to pay close attention to are the prices of the products! Honestly, some of these prices were the cheapest I've ever seen here in Lagos. I tried to capture as many price points as I could, have a look at the pictures of this store below and let me know what you think in the comments.
