Soweto born and raised media personality, actress, DJ, influencer and aspiring entrepreneur Thulisile Phongolo lets us in on her personal life and what excites her.
A FRAGRANCE THAT TAKES ME BACK TO MY CHILDHOOD IS … Apple by DKNY. My mom was obsessed with it to the point that it became my obsession too. I’d use it without her knowledge … it was actually the first fragranced I ever owned.
THE SONG THAT GETS ME GOING IN THE MORNING IS … ‘Closer’ by Goapele – it reminds me of how valid my dreams are and fills me with gratitude for the dreams I’ve already achieved!
IN MY BAG YOU WILL FIND ... Lip Maximizer gloss by Dior, and the best hand cream, Jo Malone Vitamin E Hand Treatment.
I CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT ... my family. They give me so much joy and love; they are my pillar of strength.
