Los Angeles June 17 (IANS) Actress Lupita Nyong o cried the first time she wore foundation because the product was the wrong colour.
The "Black Panther" actress has become somewhat of a style chameleon often experimenting with her make-up and hairstyles when she steps out at red carpet events reports aceshowbiz.com.
However Nyong o has now shared that her first experience with wearing cosmetics was not a positive one.
"I wasn t allowed to wear make-up growing up but when I was about 18 my mother let my aunt give me a makeover " she told InStyle magazine.
"She had lighter skin than me and did not have my foundation shade. I actually don t remember my shade existing or at least I did not see it. She applied this lighter foundation to my face and just caked it on. I cried " she added.
The actress added that she was anticipating a makeover like in the movies but the end result was "far from that".
