We know Lupita Nyong’o as a successful and versatile actress–she’s got an Academy Award for best actress in a supporting role for 12 Years a Slave, a New York Film Critics Award for Best Actress in Us, and a Screen Actors Guild Award for outstanding performance in Black Panther to name a few. At WH, we are also fans of her otherworldly skin’s glow.
She’s actually always been a fan of beauty–in an interview with Glamour in 2014, Lupita shared how when she was a teen, she petitioned for girls to wear makeup at her school: “I went to an all-boys high school, and they accepted girls in only the two A.P. classes. They had these archaic rules: For example, girls couldn’t wear makeup,” she said. “I found it so outrageous that an all-boys school could tell girls to not wear makeup! So I went on a campaign. I got a petition signed and everything. If a girl wants to wear makeup to boost confidence, why not?!”
