It’s the festive season! And we’re in the party spirit. It’s time to say goodbye to a tumultuous year - the first time we were officially outside since Covid hit - and ring in the new year with optimism and excitement.
GLAMOUR’s December-January Party Issue is now on sale, and we’re helping you navigate this fun, vibrant, and often emotional time of year. We have not one but two glorious cover stars - the formidable sister duo Ayanda and Lungile Thabethe, while inside the issue, meet our Women of the Year 2022 winners, pursue our holiday gift guide, beat the end-of-year slump, and take fashion and beauty inspiration from our 2022 red carpet roundup.
Here are 5 reasons why you should buy the issue:
Sister Act: Get to know our Cover Stars
Ayanda and Lungile Thabethe are already media moguls - and now, they’re beauty business owners. The pair have launched their very own seven-step beauty range, Quick Face, in collaboration with Mr Price. Their aim is to take the complexity out of skincare, and instead, present it as a simplistic, relaxing activity in the midst of our busy lives. In our cover story, the sisters open up about their journey to creating the brand, and how their own approach to skincare has evolved with time (page 64).
Meet our Women of the Year 2022
GLAMOUR hosted its prestigious Women of the Year event in November, which honoured phenomenal women who are trailblazers in their respective fields. These are the Game Changer’s in Tech, Beauty, Entrepreneurship, Sustainability and more. Think the Shuduhadzo Musida’s, Rabia Ghoor’s, and DBN Gogo’s of the world. On page 76, meet our winners and read a bit more about Next Gen nominees.
