Carrie Hammer Role Models Spring 2016 New York Fashion Week
Corporate-Approved Beauty Advice From Girl Bosses We Admire
7
The role model: Tolu Olubunmi, social entrepreneur
Everyday makeup essential: Mascara and a bold lipstick are all Tolu needs to look her best (if you can't tell from the photo, her skin is flawless). Right now she's addicted to her Dior mascara ($29) for long, voluminous lashes.
Confidence-boosting secret: "What makes me feel confident is when I change a life in some way. Whatever we do working towards being a strength in the world, and not just leaving it as we found it."
Best advice (ever): Growing up, Tolu's father taught her about the importance of family. Her mantra is an old Nigerian saying that translates to "remember whose child you are." "It's all about family, heritage, faith, all of those things that are most critical to you in terms of how you live your life and how you impact others."
