Meet the mother-daughter makeup artist duo beautifying Durban's streets
Nomusa Mthembu is a full-time makeup artist who started Cocoablush Makeup with her 16-year-old daughter Linathi. The pair offer affordable beauty and makeup services ranging from R20 to R600. Nomusa is adamant about supporting and nurturing her daughter's passions and dreams. Durban's streets are getting glammed up one face beat at a time. Nomusa Mthembu, a 36-year-old trained makeup artist and her 16-year-old daughter Linathi Mthembu are Durban residents who have turned their skills and passion for beauty into their own business, Cocoablush Makeup. Born and raised in the KwaZulu-Natal south coast town of Port Shepstone, Nomusa gained her makeup artistry qualification at Face to Face Beauty and Makeup Design School. She tells TRUELOVE about herself and what drove her to start Cocoablush Makeup. 'I grew up in a warm, loving family - we didn't have much. I'm the last born at home from my mother's and my father's side,' Nomusa says. 'What really sparked my passion for makeup was my spouse, [who] continuously motivated me even when I felt like I could not accomplish this dream, and he kept me driven. Also, the fact that I grew up potentially hoping to go into TV production.' Beauty on a budget What makes Cocoablush Makeup so special is how accessible and affordable it is. The pair base themselves in the busy flea market area on Doctor A.B. Xuma Street, Durban. They offer beauty services like brow shaping, lash extensions, soft and full glam makeup, nail art and microblading, with their services ranging from R20 to R600. Nomusa has been showing Linathi the ropes of the business of beauty, creating an environment for the teen to be a talented makeup artist in her own right. Linathi tells us, 'Growing up, I really loved playing around with makeup and doing looks on myself and family members. So, through the support of my mom, who's also into beauty and supporting me and encouraging me to continue on Cocoablush Makeup, I wanted to share my love for makeup with others and maybe even help people feel more confident through looks they love.' She continues, 'What I really see for Cocoablush and I hope happens [is] to know that Cocoa Blush is worldwide and maybe in a few years I'll be doing makeup for local events or even collaborating with bigger brands or even influencers. I'd love for Cocoablush to be a space where I can keep learning and showing my passions to the world.' A mother nurturing her child's passion The support that Nomusa and Linathi have for one another is incomparable, and it shows just how important it is to take your child's interests seriously. @cocoablushmakeup 📍 Workshop in between post office and pretty ladies wholesale #youngmakeupartist #durban #fyp #sama28 #nails ♬ original sound - cowboii_rsa 'My relationship with my mom working together and collaborating together on Cocoablush Makeup has - we've grown very close and because working towards something together really did get us closer. She helps me with business stuff and gives me advice on makeup and I love having her support. It's like we're a team,' Linathi shares. Nomusa is all about nurturing her daughter's passions and talents, and she says, 'As a young mom, I believe in supporting a child's dream. [It] can be super beneficial for their growth and development. It can help build their confidence, encourage creativity and create [a] sense of independence. 'When parents willingly support their child's passion, it shows that they really do believe in their child and their child's ability, which can really empower the child. Plus, it can help them develop important life skills like perseverance and problem-solving. Ultimately, supporting a child's dream can help them become more well-grounded and fulfilled individuals.'

Mzansi Welcomes The World: LIV Golf Set To Make African Debut In South Africa In 2026
LIV Golf is expanding its global footprint once again, this time with a historic first. In March 2026, the LIV Golf League will make its debut on African soil, with Johannesburg's Steyn City set to host the event from 20 to 22 March. This marks a significant moment not only for South Africa but for the entire African continent, as LIV continues to grow its international presence. Known for blending professional golf with entertainment, music, and lifestyle experiences, LIV Golf's arrival signals another bold step for the league's evolving identity and ambition. A Festival of Golf and Culture As with other LIV events, this tournament will be about more than just competition. Organisers have promised a high-energy experience that fuses sport and culture, what they call a 'festival of golf and life.' Fans can expect live music performances, immersive fan zones, and family-friendly access, including free entry for children under 12. Enthusiasm is already high: the first 10,000 tickets sold out within 24 hours, setting a LIV Golf record, and more than 25,000 tickets have already been claimed in advance of the event. The South Africa tournament will form part of LIV's broader 2026 calendar, which includes events in Australia, Singapore, Mexico, and the United Kingdom. A Venue Built for the Moment The 2026 edition will take place at The Club at Steyn City, a championship course designed by Nicklaus Design. Situated in Midrand between Johannesburg and Pretoria, the venue offers a scenic but demanding 7,700-yard, par-72 layout, surrounded by indigenous bushland and home to wildlife including impalas and porcupines. For LIV, the location offers a striking blend of modern luxury and natural African beauty, an ideal setting for a global tournament seeking to deliver both sporting drama and visual spectacle. LIV Golf has signed a multi-year agreement to stage events in South Africa, while Steyn City's deal is for one year, with options to extend. Spotlight on Home Talent South Africa's Stinger GC is expected to be a major drawcard for local fans. The team is captained by 2010 Open Champion Louis Oosthuizen, joined by fellow countrymen Charl Schwartzel, Branden Grace, and Dean Burmester, all of whom have had success on both traditional and LIV circuits. For Stinger GC, the chance to perform on familiar turf could provide a competitive edge and an emotional boost as they compete against LIV's international field. Global Stars on Display The South Africa tournament will feature a lineup of 54 top players from around the world, including major champions such as Brooks Koepka, Jon Rahm, Bryson DeChambeau, Dustin Johnson, Phil Mickelson, and Cameron Smith. The presence of these names reinforces LIV's goal to deliver a premium golf product while appealing to a new, broader generation of fans. Economic and Tourism Upside LIV Golf events have consistently demonstrated their ability to generate substantial economic impact in host cities. In 2025, LIV Golf Adelaide produced a total economic impact of $78.5 million USD, according to an independent study by Vision Insights. Key stats from that event included: South African tourism and hospitality sectors will be watching closely, with expectations that the 2026 event could deliver similar, if not greater, returns, particularly given Johannesburg's position as a regional hub for business and travel. Community-Focused Legacy Beyond entertainment and economic growth, the 2026 LIV Golf event also aims to leave a social legacy. The tournament will support the Steyn City Foundation's feeding schemes, providing resources for community programs long after the final putt drops. This aligns with LIV's growing emphasis on social investment, sustainability, and charitable partnerships as it continues to scale its global presence. A Strategic Step for the Continent South Africa has long been a destination for major international sporting events, from football and rugby to cricket and athletics. The inclusion of LIV Golf on this list marks a milestone not only for the sport in the region but for Africa's place on the global golf map. As the first African stop on the LIV calendar, the 2026 tournament could serve as a springboard for future events across the continent. For LIV Golf, it represents an important test case, one that may influence its future expansion strategy in emerging markets. As March 2026 approaches, the spotlight will turn to Johannesburg, Steyn City, and the players ready to make history. Whether for fans, athletes, or the host nation, LIV Golf South Africa promises to be a landmark moment in a sport that's redefining its global reach.
