Mihlali Ndamase has seen her share of success. And with that has come loads of exposure to luxury.
From five-star getaways to high-end beauty spoils, this internationally-recognised South African social media star has experienced it all.
She starts out by saying that she thinks she’ll do well in the How Boujee Are You Challenge. Did she though? Hit ‘play’ to find out!
Item #1: Press-on Nails
Basic: R55
Boujee: R170
The Result: Nope! Turns out heavier doesn’t mean better when it comes to false nails, fam!
Item #2: Ice Cream
Basic: R70
Boujee: R125
The Result: While she admits she’s no ice cream connoisseur, she managed to get this right. It was a close call, though!
Item #3: Foundation
Basic: R18
Boujee: R600
The Result: Both formulas offer good coverage, which made it more complicated. Which is why this one was a fail!
Item #4: False Lashes
Basic: R70
Boujee: R300
The Result: Having experience in this area, Mihlali noticed the plastic strip on one set, which bagged her a second win. Nice!
Item #5: Chocolate
Basic: R18
Boujee: R58
The Result: She said she knew on sight, but who is going to turn down chocolate? And, after sampling them both, she was right!
Item #6: Handbag
Basic: R3 000
Boujee: R20 000
The Result: Mihlali knows that these days even the fakes can be convincing. But she still knows how to spot them, scoring her another point.
Item #7: Pearls
Basic: R15
Boujee: R2 200
The Result: She might not have realised why the real ones were real, but she was right anyway. Yes, a girl *does* know her pearls!
Item #8: Wigs
Basic: R720
Boujee: R6 500
The Result: With her eyes closed, she based her decision on touch alone and could tell them apart with ease, leaving her with an impressive score of 6/8. Well done, Mihlali!
