Nigeria’s Traditional Eyeliner is both Dangerous and Beautiful

TubeMan — Thu, 10 May 2018 16:02:49 +0000

Nigeria has one of the most beautiful make up eyeliners in the world, but it is also very dangerous. It’s called Tiro or Kohl, used as mascara and medicinal purposes.

Tiro can be used as makeup ,but also for the cleaning of the eyes. Many people believe it kills germs and cleans dirt form the eyes, and even stop blood flowing from wounds. The problem is that the eye-liner is full of lead, and with constant application can be harmful.

“Tiro is used for the eyes and many people grind other substances into it, even houseflies,” says one market seller.

It can be bought in in the traditional form that looks like charcoal, or a more modern version that looks like lipstick. It is used by everyone from young children to old adults.

Tiro can also be found across the world, often known as Kohl. In Nigeria it is especially popular amongst the Hausa and Fulani people in the north.

You use it by grinding the powder and then brushing it lightly over your eyelids. Have you used tiro? What do you use it for – fashion or medical reasons?

In New York City, Nigerians from across the world gathered for the annual “Miss Nigeria USA” beauty pageant – and wow what a party!

“We are here to see the most beautiful girls in the USA from Nigeria!”

And of course, everyone’s favourite online entertainment channel was there – BattaBox.

The pageant featured 18 girls from across Nigeria’s 36 states who live in America, and the competition included swimsuit display, evening gowns, traditional dances and talent displays, and much, much more – as each girl strutted their stuff on the stage.

“I’m extremely proud of these women – they’re the women to watch,” explains the Miss Nigeria 2016 event planner.

However, there can be only one winner and at the end of the night, the judges decided on “Miss Ekiti” – or, Lola Adeoye – who is studying law. Lola Adeoyes platform will focus on suicide and depression awareness and prevention – an cause she says is dear to her heart.

The judges were Osas Ighodaro-Ajibade, DPiper Twins, Ngozi Opara of Heat Free Hair, celebrity stylists Kanayo Ebi and Moses “Moashy” Ebite, Hana Unis, A.J Ross of ABC 7 News and Essence Magazine’s Charrea Jackson.

“I get money everyday here from drawing,” explains Mr Dennis as he speaks to Odunayo “its fun,” he continues

He stopped his regular job to focus on what brings him fast money and what he loves to do. What makes his art unique is that he could draw and frame anyone in just 15 minutes.

For a life drawing, he charges N3000 ($13) and makes between N8000 ($36) to N17,000 ($77) in a day.

“I’ve never made N20,000,” he says

Odunayo also got a life drawing of herself before she left.
