When the carpet is rolled out for Prime Video Naija to host top celebrities and influencers in Nigeria, we all look out for the fashion, the food and the makeup.
Tagged a carefully curated multi-sensorial #primevideoexperience, over here at TW, our eyes were focused on the makeup and we noticed a lot of neutral/minimal eye looks but with two standout lip makeup trends – the red lip & the nude lips, making the rounds on some of our fave Nollywood ladies.
Well, we selected some of the looks that stood out to us and because we like going a little extra, we’ve included suggestions on how to achieve these same looks

Subtle Glam for Beverly Naya
Her face was glowing! Beverly was literally a bronze goddess with a flawless finish and natural, bronze glow all over her gorgeous dark skin. The assignment was expertly delivered by Polycarp Beauty and we are here for it.
To achieve Beverly’s neutral, bronze makeup look, we recommend the Zaron eyeshadow palette in Smudged for the eyes, Nuban Beauty D’Glow Highlighter for that all-over glow on the face, the House of Tara Adooshe lipstick paired with the Zikel nude lipgloss and of course a dark brown lip liner works for the perfect nude pout. For an all-over glow on the neck, chest and shoulders, the Arami Essentials Lumi Butter will deliver the shine.

Old Hollywood Glam for Uto Rosman
From the dress and the black stole, to her nails and even the style of her winged liner, Uto embodied Old Hollywood Glamour to the T. Can we all just agree on the fact that her sultry red lips are to die for? Thank you!
To achieve Uto’s look, we recommend the Hegai & Esther Photo Finish Foundation in your perfect shade as a base, mixed with the Zikel Face & Body Glow for a natural glow. Avon Ultra Colour Lipstick in Red has the perfect hue and finish to achieve her pout but don’t forget to apply a dark lip liner at the corners of the lips. For that winged liner, the Yanga Beauty liquid eyeliner is what you need.

Nude Glam for Toke Makinwa
In true Toke signature fashion, an all-nude look was the brief and it was executed flawlessly by Bellze Signature. The focus was on the skin all the way and we are loving the sultry poses Toke gave us making us notice her for sure.
To achieve this look, Juvia’s Place Warrior eyeshadow palette is what we highly recommend for the eyes. The different shades of nude and gold are perfect for achieving this look. Vee Beauty pro-matte face powder will come in handy for a super matte and flawless base. Finish off by multi-tasking with the Juvia’s Place Warrior Eyeshadow bronze shades as a highlighter on the high points of the face and body.

Bright Glam for Adunni Ade
‘Shine bright like a diamond’ comes to mind when we consider Adunni’s look at the Prime Video Naija launch party. As far as we are concerned, she decided to remind us why she is the fairest of them all with her flawless skin and pink/red hues.
To achieve this look, we recommend the House of Tara Queen Nana eyeshadow palette with its variety of colours for the eyes, the YSL Tatouage Couture no1 lip stain for that perfect orangey-red lips and the L’oreal Life’s A Peach blush for the cheeks.
