One of the most prominent figures in South African fashion is Mihlali Ndamase, who uses her talent for cosmetics to create beauty where there may not have been any before.
Mihlali Ndamase, who was raised in Kwa Zulu-Natal with her grandmother and aunt, was born to a fashion designer mother and a doctor father.
She attended all-girl boarding schools and graduated from LISOF with a makeup qualification (Leaders In the Science Of Fashion).
She had reportedly been watching videos of makeup and fashion since she was 14, so the decision to become a video makeup blogger came naturally to her. She opened a YouTube channel and found fane there with her makeup tutorials. Her fame soon extended to Instagram, a platform where she now has over 1 million followers.
