HLONIPH’LIFE, hloniph’mpilo ukuze izinsuku zakho zand’ ezweni, (Be wise my son, respect your life so that your days can be longer on earth). Uzoyithola kanjani uhleli ekoneni? (How are you going to fulfil your dreams if you are lazy and don’t work hard to pursue your goals?) These are some of the late Mduduzi “Mandoza” Tshabalala’s defining lyrics. They gave his fans a glimpse into township life, and how one could go from being a victim to a conqueror despite the hardships of the townships. One of his most popular songs, which united the country and got both black and white people dancing, was Nkalakatha. It won numerous awards for him and we still dance to it, even today. As a legendary brand that has featured the star and his…

LENDY HLATSHWAYO YES The SABC must fire him because the court has made a ruling. JASON NHINHI NO I believe Hlaudi’s work should be enough to save him his job. NELISIWE MAGUBANI YES He must be fired for his matric fabrication because a police spokesperson has also been fired because of that. In regards with the salary increment, the Minister of Communications must take a fall for that. IRENE SEME NO The SABC should not fire him despite the allegations. He has proved himself that he has the capacity and the ability to do the job. Now even African countries want to implement the 90 % local music.

AFTER reaching the top three in season 8 of Idols SA, Monde Msutwana kept a low profile. But he wasn’t twiddling his thumbs: He was working on his 2015 debut album, Introspection. Monde prefers a quiet life out of the limelight, but thankfully he’s willing to put his music out there for the rest of us. We chat to him. What drove you to create your debut album? Introspection came about when I wanted to let people know what it is I’m feeling musically, and to try to bring the love back into music. How long did it take? It was painstakingly long but fruitful. It took me a little over three years from the time I started writing songs for the album to completion What was your experience like…

TIPS AND TRICKS ALL ABOUT THE BASE You may think that applying petroleum jelly or lip balm under a long-wearing or matte lipstick will interfere with the lipstick’s consistency, not true! Apply a thin layer for extra moisture. REPAIR AND PROTECT More and more lip balm manufacturers are coming up with different formulations to suit people’s needs, from ones with UV protection to ones that are medicated to repair damaged lips. TEXTURE If you have dry lips consider using glossy textures that will add a bit of sheen to your lip, and if you have oily skin or lips, consider velvet and matte textures to minimise the shiny element to your look.

TIPS AND TRICKS WASH HAIR CORRECTLY Don’t rub your scalp vigorously while shampooing: move your fingers in circular motions, applying gentle pressure. WHEN YOU CONDITION Apply conditioner to wet hair and leave it on for a few minutes before you rinse it off. This allows it to penetrate the hair thoroughly. TRICKS FOR CURLS If you have curly hair, use an old T-shirt to dry it after washing instead of a towel. This helps to retain moisture and keeps your curls in place. STYLING IT For frizz-free hair when styling, use a straightener with ceramic plates instead of one with metal plates.

‘Prolonged stress can also cause an hormonal imbalance and affect the menstrual cycle’ I’VE NEVER HAD A PERIOD Q I’m a 21-year-old female and have never had a period. There is no history of late menstruation in my family. At the clinic they said it was normal. I am worried – is this going to affect my ability to have children in future? ANONYMOUS, SMS A There is nothing normal about this. Firstly, the clinic you visited and the conclusion they came to should be questioned, as I do not know the clinic’s capacity and ability to access and investigate medical problems like these. However, it would be good for you to visit a gynaecologist (a specialist who deals with the female reproductive system and its diseases) at any State…

AS HUMAN beings, we are a target-orientated species, and we are usually motivated to do things if we have a goal in mind. Life without goals becomes a routine of meaningless activities. Such a life can be daunting and can lead to self-destruction. There has to be a purpose for us on this earth, beyond just existing. As a child you were told to eat so you could grow up and be strong, but when you are an adult, you eat to gain energy to fulfill your goals in life. The primary goal in life is to survive, but the secondary goal is to live a meaningful life. There are benefits of having a goal in life: they propel you to move forward despite the challenges; you can overcome opposing…

SCORPIO 23 Oct – 21 Nov You could feel restless right now and in need of new experiences to stimulate and refresh your mind, body and soul. As it is, it’s a good week to escape from the rat race. However, this doesn’t mean you should isolate yourself, particularly if you’re prone to brooding, which can darken your life. YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 24, 13, 23, 5, 44, 4 SAGITTARIUS 22 Nov – 20 Dec It’s time you not only concentrate on your hopes and dreams, but take action in terms of realising them.

MY EX IS GOSSIPING I just broke up with my boyfriend and he's saying things about me to my friend. Should I confront him or leave it in the past? PORTIA BONOLO GOITSEMANG KEKANA (17) Some guys are stupid and just don't think. Others don't deal well with break ups and bruised egos, so your ex could be one of the above. If you confront him, he'll be happy to know that you're hurt and that he still has an effect on you. I think you should let it be and continue with your life as silence is also an answer to his gossiping ways. Being quiet will also cause him confusion as he'll wonder why you haven't approached him. Sooner or later, he'll get tired of waiting for your…

‘If I try to act like my dad, I’m going to fail. I can’t do that’ THERE’S something strangely familiar about his velvety voice: Images from movies such as Man on Fire, Antwone Fisher and American Gangster spring to mind when you close your eyes and listen to him speak. Then there’s that smile – big, bright and dazzling enough to light up Orlando Stadium. And there’s no missing his natural swag, which seems to be genetic. Unlike his famous father, he may not be a household name – yet – but Denzel Washington’s son, John David Washington, is turning heads for all the right reasons following his breakout role in the TV series Ballers. In Ballers, John David plays heartthrob Ricky Jerret, a charming football star searching for stability…

GET BEHIND THE PUBLIC PROTECTOR When Thuli Madonsela was first introduced to South Africans as a Public Protector, not many of us knew anything about her and how perfect she would be. Now, her work speaks for itself. Since her contract has come to an end, we have nothing to do but accept that we can’t have another Thuli, however, we can have someone who will try by all means to do what is best for South Africans. It’s time that South Africans try not to be negative about any decision taken by the ruling party.

THE BEGINNING Mandoza started out in the band Chiskop, which he formed with his childhood friends. Its success saved him from a life of crime. He released his first solo album in 1999. FAME AND FORTUNE Mandoza had a string of hits between 1999 and 2008, when his career was derailed first by two car accidents, then by his wife’s stroke and his own cancer. He was planning a comeback. ACCLAIMED AND INSPIRING The number of awards Mandoza won over the course of his career is impressive, but his real success is reflected in his many fans, of many races and in many countries, who have been touched by his music.…

TIPS AND TRICKS CARE FOR YOUR CUTICLES If you go to the salon to do your nails regularly, invest in cuticle oil. The chemicals and products used at the salon may dry out your cuticles after each treatment. Cuticle oil helps keep them hydrated, soft and healthy. GIVE THEM A BREAK Give your nails a break in between salon visits so that they can breathe. Nails that are always covered in acrylic or gel treatments tend to get weak over time. FIND TREATMENTS If your nails are already brittle and breaking, consider trying out an at-home nail treatment. These products are available from leading pharmacies. COLOUR CARE ART…

TIPS AND TRICKS CLEANSING If you have oily skin that’s prone to breakouts, use a cleanser that has salicylic acid to exfoliate the skin and remove impurities. Then use a moisturiser with hyaluronic acid to minimise shine. TAKE CARE Stay out of the sun between 10 am and 3 pm as this is when most of the damage is done. If you have to be out and about, use sunscreen and cool your skin afterwards with an after-sun spray or lotion.

BREAKFAST is the most important meal of the day. Starting your day with Jungle Oats gives your body sustained energy to keep you fuller for longer, and it’s high in dietary fibre to keep your digestive system regular. Oats contain beta-glucan, a soluble fibre that has been known to help reduce cholesterol by binding to the “bad” cholesterol in your blood. Soluble fibre from foods such as oats, when consumed as part of a diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease. A 40 g serving of Jungle Oats gives you 1,5 g of the recommended 3 g of soluble fibre you need a day to help keep your heart healthy. Jungle Oats is also low in sodium (salt). Reducing the amount of salt…

ONE FOR THE ENGINEERS Three lawyers and three engineers are travelling to a conference by train. At the station, the three lawyers each buy tickets and watch as the three engineers buy one ticket between them. “How are three people going to travel on only one ticket?” one of the lawyers asks. “Watch and you’ll see,” answers one of the engineers. They all board the train. The lawyers take their seats but all three engineers cram into a toilet and close the door behind them. Shortly after the train has departed, the conductor comes around collecting tickets. He knocks on the toilet door and yells, “Tickets, please.” The door opens just a bit and a single arm emerges with a ticket in hand. The conductor takes it and moves on.…

LUPITA N’YONGO The Queen of Kwaite star stopped relaxing her hair at 19. “In my adolescence, I always had long hair and it was relaxed . . . I just got really fed up with always going to the salon and it taking so much effort to look presentable before you leave the house. So, I just one day decided to cut it off, and I cut it all off,” the 33-year-old explains. JANELLE MONÁE The Yoga singer, who’s also making her acting debut this year, hasn’t always paid attention to her hair. “But as I grew older I found the beauty in it. Being natural allows me to have more versatility. I’ve always loved my texture, but sometimes I wake up and it can look as if I haven’t…

SA’S VARSITY BLUES SOUTH AFRICA’S leading universities were downgraded this week in the QS World University Rankings 2016/17 report. The country’s top university, the University of Cape Town, is hovering at 120 while Wits University is in the mid-200s. This shows that the country is paying the price for the turmoil that started with the “#FeesMustFall” campaign last year, and the subsequent destruction of property and violence on several campuses around the country. President Jacob Zuma’s ill-considered promise of free education is not realistic and all it means is that the turmoil on our campuses will continue. I implore the students to stop destroying the libraries and other facilities you already have. Is it logical to think that doing so will bring you closer to free tuition? All you are…

Dyambeu Investments, a company which owns a 26 % stake in VBS Mutual Bank, is co-owned by VhaVenda King Toni Mphephu Ramabulana. His right to the throne has been a matter of dispute since 2012 when his 24-year-old niece, Princess Masindi Mphephu, filed court papers arguing she’s the rightful heir to throne but had been overlooked because she’s a woman. Before her application Zuma had announced Ramabulana as king and earlier this year announced there would be a coronation ceremony for him. Masindi, the only child of late chief Tshimangadzo Mphephu, was granted an urgent interdict to stop the coronation. VBS’s decision to grant Zuma the R7,8 million loan came two weeks after the interdict and Mbulaheni Mphephu, a member of the royal family and Masindi’s uncle, says the timing…

TIPS AND TRICKS WEARING BRIGHT EYESHADOW Apply only a light layer of eyeshadow, or blend it with neutral tones like copper, brown or black to balance it with your skin tone. LONGWEARING TIPS Apply a layer of concealer over the area where you’ll be applying your eyeshadow. This will prevent creasing. Use a make-up setting spray after your make-up application. MASCARA APPLICATION Mascaras with silicone bristles deposit product better than mascaras with regular brushes, but they may cause your lashes to clump. Mascaras with regular brushes deposit less product but make fewer clumps. EYESHADOW MASCARA EYELINER   Use the Media24 3D app to scan this page for easy one-click shopping.…

TIPS AND TRICKS IT’S ABOUT THE GLOW Wearing make-up is now about wearing something that looks natural with an added glow. STILL WANT COVERAGE? The whole point of wearing make-up is to get some sort of coverage, but not everyone wants the same kind of coverage. The most common thing that women want is light wear, which BB and CC creams offer. BB creams offer light coverage while CC creams offer fuller coverage, but both are light and offer multiple benefits. TRICKS Mix a drop of your BB cream with a tiny amount of strobing/highlighting lotion to get a light sheen effect on your face. BB/CC HIGHLIGHT GOLDEN TONES…

TIPS AND TRICKS TAKE CARE If you have sensitive skin, use products that don’t contain alcohol, especially after shaving. Products with alcohol can cause the skin to flare up and dry out. WHEN SHAVING Don’t use regular soap to shave, it can cause dryness and promote lumps, bumps and irritated skin. Instead, use soaps and creams that are solely made for shaving. When shaving, shave in the direction of the hair growth using gentle strokes – don’t drag your razor across your face. Rinse your razor after every stroke to remove hair and excess shaving cream.

‘Work on finding yourself and what it is you want in a relationship’ I STILL LOVE HIM Q I recently cheated on my boyfriend twice and he forgave me, but we still broke up.

WOMEN can develop imperfections, inflammatory lesions and scarring at any age. Adult acne is a problem that affects 41 % of women aged 25 to 40. Unlike juvenile acne, adult acne can recur and is often resistant to conventional treatment. Most conventional acne treatments are designed for teenagers, and are abrasive and could cause dryness – this is counterproductive in adult acne sufferers. Adult acne may also leave dark spots and scars that are deep and long-lasting if not treated correctly. Avène TriAcnéal EXPERT is specially designed for women affected by stubborn or late-onset acne. Its customised formula contains a trio of complementary active ingredients with proven efficacy: Diolényl®, a patented innovation from Pierre Fabre laboratories, helps eliminate spots; X-Pressin™ smoothes the skin texture and retinaldehyde reduces residual marks and…

STADIUM GOALS His dream of filling Orlando Stadium in Soweto with 40 000 people on 29 October follows his success of filling up the Ticketpro Dome in Northriding with 20 000 people. While it cost him R3,2 mil to fill the Dome, it’ll cost about R25 mil to fill Orlando Stadium, of which he needs R15 mil in sponsorship. Luckily, MTN has come on board to help the ambitious musician. A MINI CRUSH He ended his relationship with Boity Thulo so that he could focus on his career, but if he had the time to date someone, it would be Minnie Dlamini.

‘The airline will never recover considering the grim economic outlook’ IN A CONTROVERSIAL decision, the Government has bailed out the national airline once again. South African Airways (SAA) looked set to file for bankruptcy, following losses attributed to “unwarranted expansion of resources” and redundancies. But now, the Government has thrown it another lifeline: it is giving SAA an additional State loan guarantee of R5 billion. Many fear this latest development will send the message that the airline can forever rely on Government bailouts if things go wrong. After all, the cash­strapped carrier may be less inclined to improve its performance if it knows it can rely on the state. But can Government realistically do anything to save SAA? It believes it can. When Minister of Finance Pravin Gordhan announced the…

CHANNEL ANN7 recently announced the nominees for its South African of the Year Awards, at a party at the luxe Michelangelo Hotel in Sandton, Joburg.
