SA celebs with must-try beauty and skincare brands

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!

From clothing brands to perfumes and alcoholic drinks, there is nothing we are not capable of creating in South Africa, and no matter what skin issues you may be dealing with you will always find products that will meet your needs with these beauty brands.

Here are mzansi celebs who launched beauty and skincare brands:
