The 20-year-old make-up artist shaking up the industry shares her tips and tricks and the story of her journey.
For centuries, black bodies have been a battleground – and since its inception, the beauty industry has failed to cater to the needs of black women.
Today we celebrate a new era with make-up brands finally stepping up to the palette.
Putting the colour back in to mainstream beauty is Mata, make-up artist to Skepta, Stormzy and IAMDDB.
She is the perfect guide, blending technique with the topical in a live make-up tutorial.
Hosted by presenter, DJ and model Emerald Rose Lewis.
This event is presented in association with Indaba X.
