Pumza Payi IN LANVIN

Be Kind To The Bag Pull a Chair For It Darhling

Pumza Payi, Marketing Director of Revlon South Africa in KENZO & LANVIN

Pumza has to be one of the most stylish business women in South Africa within the cosmetic industry and beyond. Unlike most (me) she has a style she most definitely can afford, as a Marketing Director for one of the world’s giant firms - Revlon South Africa! Her style and wardrobe is unassuming and yet super luxe just the way monied people choose their get up and styling.

Remember Sue Fox Estee Lauder's Managing Director for Sub-Saharan Africa Pumza’s giant industry competitor also one of the best and my favourites. Totes Obz with her wardrobe game!

SHAKE YOUR TITS, I LOVE YOUR WORK.

The Many Faces of Felicity Spies x Wet Sloppy Colourful Kisses All Over Your Body

We love Mrs. Spies, she is Cray, she is lots of fun and a whole lot of lip! She has that Brit sharp tongue wit, which leaves me confused at most times. As to whether she is being an ultra bitch or she is joking around. I do a quick turn around and remind myself that she is Brit; it is within her to serve some backdoor shade here and there. She is constantly on that No Tea, No Shade but all Tea All Shade situation!

REVLON x Spring Summer 2013 Must Have Beauty Products #LustListATJ

REVLON is spoiling us this season with some of their award winning products; you will be spoilt for choice. The product selection in the Lust List Kit is EVERYTHING. Beautiful lippie selection, nail polish, eye shadows e.t.c

I am particularly in love with the REVLON ColorStay Concealar. It is easy to apply, small enough to keep in your purse and work like a charm. Dark circles that may suggest that one has a crazy lifestyle that includes zero sleep are a rumour with this nifty potion in tube.

This is a trick I do once in a while when I do not look alive but have to: REVLON Colorstay Concealr 06 Deep around my eyes, a minimal application of the PhotoReady Kajal – intense eyeliner on the inner upper and down lids. Subtly flip my eyebrows with the REVLON Lash Potion mascara. The usual question that follows when on the street is: What did you do to your eyes? My response - a casual smile followed by a change of subject. Works like a charm every time!

Bonang Matheba x According To Jerri

We still are celebrating an African first with an African beauty in Africa. OK, wait I am going to stop before I botch it up whilst trying to play with words and embrace my deep seated Mya Angelou alter ego.  

On two occasions whilst attending the REVLON SA events there have been two things that I really enjoyed. One being their brand manifesto and second one being a poem / speech one of the REVLON SA marketing personnel shared with us. I have asked them to mail me these so I can share with the world. Once I receive them they are all yours to enjoy. Stay tuned...

For now Bonang Matheba - Ngwanyana wa Motswana – congrats we celebrate (with) you. Your success and achievements are a case study respectively. To the entire young women out there who look up to Miss Thang figuratively and literally (on billboards) she said earlier that “IT COULD BE YOU”. She is glad that she managed to open the doors for her daughters, and her daughters’ daughters and her daughters’ daughters’ daughter. Dare I forget that she is self proclaimed Queen of Everything and it is proving to be difficult to challenge her on that bold title she carved for herself with each milestone she achieves.

She has a drive, eager to learn, soak it all up and a thirst for FIRSTs. She must get an exhilarating rush every time she gets described as; Bonang Matheba THE FIRST South African Black Female personality to achieve this and this...

The humanist psychologist Abraham Maslow, believes that our actions are motivated in order achieve certain needs. If that is the case she must be at a stage where she is motivated to achieve her self-actualization needs. Some people say the Maslow’s Hierarchy is old as dust, outdated and doesn’t take in to account that, things have changed. There is a sense of truth in that but what do we reference then?

A few things that have come across consistently in her media interviews – which I have to say, she is well trained at that too –are: work harder, have directed ambition and a goal to work towards and do not be scared to say no to other opportunities that come knocking on your door. Know what you want, work hard for it and by the time it comes you will be ready for it.

Here a few important life lessons from Ru Paul Drag Race that applies to you now because if you want to be a star, like the queens, then you better get to werk:

1. The world is your catwalk, so just remember this when you’re out there... DON’T FUCK IT UP. Seriously, don’t fuck it up

2. Haters gonna hate, but here are the only words you need for them: SASHAY AWAY

3,When someone wrongs you, walk away from them and don’t ever look back: consider them dead!

4. Excuses are for losers, and winning is for winners, like you!

5. The greatest truths in life are the ones your fellow queens are willing to tell you.

6. But the one rule you should never, ever forget is YOU BETTA WORK!

Your Time Has Come and You Are Ready!
