Black Panther Inspired Wakanda Warrior Makeup

Marvel Studio’s Black Panther movie, released February 2018 took the world by storm. It was a cultural phenomenon, as for the first time in many years, the world saw a positive futuristic image of Africa, from the perspective of Africans. The superhero movie follows T’challa the young prince, after his fathers death becomes King T’challa of Wakanda, a technologically advance nation using vibranium to supercharge. King T’challa has to defend his nation from rogue characters, using the help of allies around the world and the resources of Wakanda’s vibranium powered weapons and the Wakanda’s female warriors. The movie weaved beautiful African costumes from many different African countries. The hairstyles presented were an artistic masterclass as we saw bald to braids to locks to twists and so on. You may find more information about the movie from the  Black Panther official website  https://www.marvel.com/movies/black-panther

To mark our premier viewing of the movie, my family and I adorned African attire and makeup and headed in style. And the experience was an out of this world affirmation of us, of our identity, as Africans. Click on the Youtube Video link above to watch me transform into a fearless Wakanda female warrior!

Wodaabe Inspired Face Makeup and Attire

My inspiration comes from the men of Wodaabe from the Niger, during their annual week long Gerewol festival. The Gerewol festival brings out different groups and the men compete in a series of dances and songs to impress marriageable women. They decorate themselves with facial makeup and adorn their best garments. They spend 4 hours putting the look together. And get this, they use natural makeup such as clay, the dark lipstick that they apply to accentuate the whiteness of their teeth comes from material of batteries. There is a high stakes competition, eligible ladies choose for a mate the male that embodies desirable characteristics, therefore everyone has to look their best.

About Me

Hi there. My name is Noela Mogga. I am a physician, mother, food blogger. I was born in South Sudan. I plan to showcase tasty South Sudan food recipes, traditional customs, and natural beauty regimens. When I am not busy practicing Anesthesiology in my adopted state of Texas, I can be found whipping delicious meals for my husband and children.

South Sudan Cuisine

South Sudan Cuisine is heavily influenced by East African and Arab cuisine. At the basic level meals are meat or fish stews with a vegetarian side dish eaten with Asida, a thick porridge made from sorghum or millet. Unique to South Sudan cuisine is the use of peanut butter to thicken sauces. South Sudanese cuisine is generally complex and labor and time consuming. Women spend the better part of the day cooking the day's meals. Sweet hot tea is consumed at any time of the day, for breakfast, after a meal in the afternoon, offered to guests and at every occasion.
