Leila in Creme of Nature Ad

Hey guys,

I am so excited to be one of five women featured in Creme of Nature’s 2010 print ad campaign. That’s me at the right end of the first row. This ad will appear in Essence Magazine and a few other black beauty mags. Yay!

    hey, I saw this and was smiling becuase I love visiting both your blog and Afrobella’s, just wondering how come your hair is in a TWA in the picture, recent photos show otherwise?

    You’re gorgeous!
    Every time I see the ad, I’ll point you out and pretend to my friends that it’s the first time I’m seeing it.
    I’ll say, “Oh snap! Look! I know her. It’s my friend Leila from way back in the day.”
    What can I say?
    I have no shame.

    Congratulations.
    Your fame is richly deserved.

    You look so beautiful! I was so psyched when I knew more than half of these bloggers! You deserve all publicity and praise, you’ve changed our hairstories with your blog. Keep it up!

    I saw this in Black Hair magazine and I was like, OMG IT’S LEILA! I’ve been trying to figure out how to segue some kind of Congratulations into a post, but now I don’t have to. So…

    Congratulations!

    So awesome.

    oh wow – just noticed that they have the most popular bloggers posted!
    Harlista
    Afrobella
    BGLH
    Nadege
    I cant make out the other persons’ name or site

    Thats some serious marketing to get our $$$$ — Is this a response to increased presence of forums and the new networks and support systems that have been created online among black women? Hmmm..

    CONGRATS !!!

    Congrats, can I say that I absolutely love your smile. It must have been a while since this shots were taken because your hair has grown so much. Hey, just out of curiosity – do you use this product for real because I skip past it all the time. Has anyone used it? Is there a product review for it? If not, then I might just have to try it because I am completely out of products and need to shop anyway. Let me know. Thanks and congrats again! :O)

    OMG CONGRATSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS LEILA! You are doing some AWESOME BIG thangs and I am so HAPPY for you! God Bless you and your career :-)

    Thanks guys!!!

    It’s not a TWA, it’s an updo. Full disclosure: I was having a HORRIBLE hair day when I had to go in and do the shoot!

    So I pinned up the back of my hair and did this swoop bang thing in the front to give some volume.

    You look beautiful! Congratulations!!!!

    Regarding the actual product, have you used it? I use the Creme of Nature shampoo (before they changed the formula and bottle design) b/c the new stuff has SLS in it. Shame on them!

    Very very cool. Congrats!
