That's the theme of the 16th Cape Town Carnival and it’s exactly what makeup artist Jemma Fourie pours into her craft.

Fourie has been chosen as one of the “champions” for Cape Town’s biggest event, taking place on Saturday 21 March at the Green Point Fan Walk.

Fourie will join other creatives which include singer Anslin Gysman, local actor Natasha van der Merwe, DJ Ready D, graffiti artist Rizah Potgieter, and designer Stephen van Eeden.

Carnival organisers say people can look forward to a celebration of diversity as over 1 000 performers and 10 colourful handcrafted floats are set to dazzle spectators.
