As the majority of the country’s consumers buy international skincare products, Mzansi celebrities have joined the trend by producing their own beauty products.
‘Local is always lekker’ even when it comes to your daily skincare products as you support local businesses and workers which leads to the unemployment rate slowly decreasing as these businesses fight to keep their doors open.
While some products have been a major flop we applaud our celebrities for giving it it a shot!
