Mzansi celebs showed off and showed out at the L’Oréal Paris event which took place at the Sandton Convention Centre to officially introduce Thuso Mbedu as their first ever Sub-Saharan African Ambassador.
At the event, the brand also launched their new skincare range, Glycolic Bright Instant Glowing Serum, reports The Citizen.
Celebs aimed to impress with their outfits as the theme was ‘Strictly black – Parisian Chic Black Tie.’ One cannot blame the lady of the moment for going against the colour theme, wearing a soft pink Willet Designs couture gown and black belt.
Reminiscing about the evening, Thuso wrote, “What do we call it when the dream you didn’t dare to dream becomes a reality? ? Whatever that word is, it’s what we will call the night of @lorealparis in Sub-Saharan Africa as words are clearly failing me ? Thank you to every single person who made this a night to remember. A triple special shout-out to my team who made me look so dreamy.”
