What did we discuss? Everything. From the fact that over 77% of Nigerians use skin lightening products (According to the World Health Organisation) to other current issues surrounding beauty like the #TeamNatural sensation that is sweeping the continent, how we, as content curators, can determine the trends on social media while incorporating culture and tradition and of course our way of helping the African woman see herself as the strong, beautiful and independent woman she truly is.
