Adding to the beauty of her look, Joselyn wears layers of multiple gold and white necklaces and bracelets. The rich gold tones beautifully contrast with the vibrant colors of the Kente fabric, creating a stunning balance of heritage and contemporary fashion.
Her makeup enhances her natural beauty with a soft finish. Her well-defined eyebrows frame her face, and subtle eyeshadow complements her warm skin tone.
Long, voluminous lashes make her eyes pop, while a bronzed blush adds a warm glow to her cheeks. Nude lipstick completes her look, giving her a soft, radiant vibe that ties the whole ensemble together.
