OMPHEMETSE KATHLEEN MATSHIDISO Age: Occupation:

65

Retired Nurse

Onthatile Matshidiso, daughter to Mama Omphemetse, would like to see her mom reinvent herself as an entreprene­ur. “I want her to embrace the change with a new look,” she says.

MAKE-UP

“I kept her face clean by applying Black Opal True Color Foundation to give her a youthful look, with a sweet pink eyeshadow to highlight her brown eyes. I shaped her brows and applied blush to highlight her cheeks, and topped it off with a popping pink lipstick to keep things chic,” says make-up artist Faith Seuoe.

HAIR

Mama Omphemetse’s hair was washed, treated and blow dried at the Hair & Chats Spa Salon. It was also curled for a simple, yet classy style.

EXPERIENCE

How did you feel after the makeover?

“I felt confident because my blemishes were concealed. The highlight was the facial transforma­tion from an expert make-up artist.”

What did you love about your makeover?

“The coordinati­on of the knits and pleated skirt was great. I never thought drop earrings could look good on me, but they worked wonders. And the shoes were gorgeous and comfortabl­e!”

What fashion or beauty lessons did you learn?

“I asked the expert for tips on how to apply my own make-up. Faith taught me how to use a big brush to define and add volume my lashes.”
