Hosted by OAP, Kaylah Oniwo who kept the audience engaged and entertained, the MAC Sub Saharan team headed by Lebo Mulumba- Brand Lead Sub Saharan Africa who was delighted to be part of such a unique gathering where each person understands make up intrinsically. Lebo explained to the audience that Tiwa was chosen because aside from being a global icon, she has always had a relationship with MAC and is passionate about supporting local talent which is why Tiwa insists on a Nigerian makeup artist no matter where she is in the world. She ended her speech by thanking Tiwa for this collaboration, rising up as an African Queen, representing the brand powerfully, choosing a color that represents all men and women, and giving her all to put Africa on the map.

Tiwa who thanked the audience said, “This is a special moment for us. Africans consume so much in makeup but are not recognized so this collaboration is long overdue.” She went further to say “I chose this shade because I wanted something that is strong, bold, beautiful and represents women of my complexion because it’s difficult for ladies my complexion to find a suitable red. You can gloss it up when you want to feel like a “MAC gal” but even though it’s matte, it’s not your typical dry matte.”

Following her address, she proceeded to unveil the lipstick to an enthusiastic audience who cheered her on. Kaylah ensued to ask the audience “who knows Tiwa best?” which was fun and interacting as the audience guessed answers and won gifts. Following the games, Tiwa led everyone into the “Tiwa Lounge” where she entertained questions from the press, took pictures with fans and even bust a few moves with her lipstick in hand.
