Lupita Nyong'o: "I Use Beauty Products as a Celebration of Just Naked Me"

Her go-to lipstick on a "blah" day:

"I really love to use light translucent glosses. I like to add a little tszuj without overwhelming my face. There's a Juicy Shaker that is translucent that I use."

Her favorite protective hairstyle:

"Braids. I love braids."

One hairstyle she'd love to try that she hasn't:

"Big Afro. I'd love to try that, because I don't have one. You want what you don't have. It's just fabulous. The thing is, I have a small face, so I don't do well with lots of hair. But it's just so beautiful to see someone carrying a big crown of hair on her head. Hopefully a role will call for it one of these days."
