Weddings, modeling, fashion, cinema and most importantly, personal beauty are contributing to the phenomenal rise of makeup in Ghana. But who’s documenting it all? Thankfully, there are makeup blogs and vlogs in Ghana that cover what’s happening in Ghana’s makeup industry, share hacks and tips on different ways to stay glowing and more.
While there aren’t that many, the few that exist are holding it down for the country and it’s amazing to follow, especially knowing the people behind them are all so young, and killing it.
