Black & Beautiful Nollywood Yoruba Actress Abimbola Ogunnowo Opens Skin Bleaching Shop In Lagos
The former black and beauty who has suddenly turned white has revealed the secret of her glowing skin.
In this exclusive chat with The entertainer, Ogunnowo narrated how she joined Nollywood, the secret of her beauty and many others.
See excerpts..
How did you come into acting?
That was when I met Femi Branch. I told him I wanted to join a theater group but he advised that I should first produce a movie which I did in 2009 and overnight, Bimbo Ogunnowo became a household name in the industry and today the rest is history.
Has motherhood changed anything about you?
Motherhood has really changed a lot about me. I can say I am more mature now because I know I have a daughter looking up to me as her role model. However, ever since I gave birth, I have added weight and I’m not finding it easy (laughter).
Well, I would say it’s not been easy at all. Sometimes I forget things because I want the best for my daughter, I want my child to enjoy me to the fullest. Anytime Im am off to location for days I make sure she’s in proper care but I must confess that it’s not an easy task.
You have a glowing skin, what is your beauty secret?
My number one beauty secret is water; I drink water a lot especially in the morning, I don’t joke with tomatoes too. I use the best skin maintenance cream in the business.
She is the owner of Xtreme Beauty palace, a skin bleaching shop in Lagos.

Its easier to bleach your skin from black to white but the reverse is always impossible bescause black is not just beautiful but UNIQUE.
I like them dark. Bleached skin is irritating and smelly. Its a counterfeit skin with all the collagen that mentain a natural texture destroyed.
In the case of any surgical operation, it become difficult to have a bleached skin sewn that will facilitate the healing process.
Ladies in the House, pls dont bleach your skin, dont scare your prospective Husbands away. I‘m sure you all understand what I mean?
Just wanna continue my strolling from here…

This is for people who don’t care much about their inner beauty. If they ever sit down to count the cost, perhaps they would not go there at all. Bleaching your skin may make you look attractive for a while. But when it comes to aging, your akin wrinkle faster than a natural skin. That is when you become really desperate. And the more cosmetic measures you take to turn around the situation, the more your skin cries to you,”I am tired! I am tired!”
If old age is not a pretty sight for even a natural skin, what infinitely detestable thing will it be for a bleached skin? Girls, and gays, use your head.

Bleaching creams is fast selling. Most ladies prefer to change their skin colour forgetting black is beautiful,attractive and appealing,so as light skin. I just hope those bleaching their skin won’t regret doing so

Natural color is the best. Bleached skin is irritating and they smell awful when you come close to them. Again, how long will you continue to bleach? because when you stop bleaching you become a leopard with black and white spots. It is those with inferiority complex that bleach. White people stay in the sun to tan so they can look Black (Dark)because they like the melanin in Black race. Some of them even have lip injections to develop thick lips like Black people, have butt injections to have big backside like Blacks and when you closely interact with the Whites, they will tell you the truth. And the truth is their men prefer Black women and their ladies prefer Black men. This is true.

From black to light red, nawa o, but the way she bleached her skin, no one will ever know is artificial and not her real complexion.

I learn bleaching has adverse effect on the liver so apart from the terrible multi-colored look that comes on when the beaching stops, the health problem beaching might cause makes it a big no no for me
