Carol Motolo, 30, said she has made it one of her missions to promote unconventional beauty. “Being a cross-eyed individual, I was often teased; my eyes weren’t perfect like those of other kids, so they often made fun of me. Being a go-getter that I am, I wanted to prove that I can be more beautiful than they were in the very eyes that weren’t considered beautiful or perfect,” she said.
The mother of two said when she grew older and started using make-up she realised that eyelashes sometimes irritated the eyes."I went to a make-up artist and she had to use eyelashes on me. My eyes immediately got irritated, the lashes weren’t as natural as I would have loved them to be. That alone frustrated me, my eyes were sensitive, I remember being sad throughout an event I went to because the make-up look I wanted was not complete.
The entrepreneur who launched her brand in May said her biggest challenge is getting people to trust that her brand is as good as a big international brand. “The challenges are convincing a modern-day woman in my country to try out new things without feeling as if they are changing themselves or not being true to themselves,” she said.
