BN Exclusive: “Innovative & Fierce” – Genevieve Nnaji for MUD Cosmetics Nigeria
Posted on Monday, July 26th, 2010 at 12:00 PMBy BellaNaija.com
It just keeps getting better! A few months ago, BellaNaija.com broke the news that Genevieve Nnaji had been chosen as the face of MakeUp Designory – MUD Cosmetics in Nigeria. Now, we are excited to bring you exclusive photos and video from the MUD Cosmetics campaign featuring Gene. Genevieve flew out to Los Angeles with the MUD Nigeria team for the advertising campaign photoshoot. The plan was to capture images that would represent the essence of the MUD Nigeria Campaign – fresh and innovative! The shoot was styled by celebrity stylist, Mr. Bradshaw and shot by renowned photographer, Deverill Weekes who has shot images featuring Beyonce and other superstars.
According to co-Managing Directors of Bellezza Cosmetics and Spa (the official franchise owners and distributors of MUD in Nigeria), Chinny Onwugbenu and Onyinye Onwugbenu “It was a collaborative effort between ourselves and our parent company in LA to pull off the shoot. From coming up with the concepts to actual execution of the shots, it was a great experience, and a lot of fun for all involved! And Genny is such a trooper. She allowed herself to be totally covered up in real mud for so many hours, but still managed to take amazing shots and looked fierce while doing it.”
We love the glam shot of Gene in the colourful dress with the statement necklace (made up of MUD eyeshadow pots!), however. there is an earthy quality of the final photo of her covered in MUD. It really lets her natural beauty glow which is what MUD is all about.
MUD will be rolling out a number of exciting products, promotional and training events in Nigeria over the next few months. Stay tuned to BN for more exclusive information and photos.

Why e wan resemble dead body na? I love the make up and attitude but the cement business or plaster looks kainda scary. But Gene is amazing
The cement thing I think is to represent MUD, you know as in Mud like clay?
Anyhoo, Genevieve looks GREAT! I am so happy. And my favorite part of the video was when she smiled, and the end when she gave that Face with all her tooth.
I mean, yeah I know she’s modeling and has to look all fierce, but I Love her smile! Go Gene.

Where can i find HOT Naija girls like this???
Genny is beautiful but truth be told the first 2 pics were just too messy,
her hair in the first pic needed like 2 cartons of aphogee oil moisturizing
sheen, cute makeup though it just didnt work with the mud theme at all
especially on her face .
Maybe her striking a sultry pose in the mud would have been better not that
calamine lotion scene there in the 2nd pic .
ehen, having said that , she looked very stunning in the 3rd pic
This shoot looks sooo hawt i luv it and Genevieve was perfect as the face of MUD!
looooooooooooove the last picture! she looks beautiful!!!
very nice!!! this genny is just to hoit!! I totally love the concept. the person that said the pic is too messy lacks imagination.
@Lagos Boy … In your dreams! (ptcheeew!) Genny, we ALWAYS knew you were The Diva! Work it, work it! You go, girl.
Genny is simply gorgeous!
This chick is beautiful for real…..
*I’m sorry the first picture isn’t it at all;they should have oiled the weave,looks pretty dry and tangled*
oh! my Genevieve….
Captivating shots! Nice work Genevieve! More grease to your elbow.
my Gene.you are what you are………..beautifulllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL LADY
The last pics is da bomb! she looks so fab!
This girl is really beautiful! What an African queen indeed!
Wow, isn’t she lovely
cant belive this is the same genevieve who’s face was a pimples’ bus stop a few years back. she looks really good.
wow wow wow go deh Genny, luv you!!!
it’s a confusing marketting strategy. i don’t know much about them (MakeUp Designory)., but I’ve been to their website and they seem to be just a normal makeup line. now having Genny all covered in mud can lead people to believe it’s some dead sea mineral or mud-of-some-sort product. i mean, that MUD happens to be their acronym, doesn’t mean they literally have to use mud… or does it?
fab girl….ur my best
she’s called ‘pimples free’ now.
Gene you’re beautiful. Love the last pic so much but the first and second is not fine all looks like someone from the grave yard
nice one
dis gurl Genny is sos os so so hooooooooooooottt.. i luv everyfin in dis ad.. wow! shes so beautiful.. wow..
love the eyeshadow necklace in the last pic
Go girl, you are the bomb. beautiful pics from the 1st to the last. keep the good work girl, the sky is ur limit.
Picture 1 and 2 = Nonesense! C what they did to my Genny. kmt.
beautiful!
her black is beautiful very nice
people should stop exposing their ignorance. If you don’t understand then don’t comment.
look at her face and see how perfect it is and if u’re exposed u will get at
what they are portraying which is that no matter how u look mud products does wonders.
even when bathed in mud.
thank you o, sexi mom, some people sef…
I jst love jenny, she is jst too much
great!!!
MUD pickd d rite celeb,no offence.fly pictures,nice!!! Mkup colors all soo beautiful
