“I’m convinced that the #Luminous630 works. So my darling B-force, I’m starting this journey with you and Nivea South Africa. Here’s to day one, let’s!” she captioned the video.

Her fans quickly started congratulating her and showing support for the skincare brand.

Mbali Nxumalo commented: “You and strategy. Well done, Bonang.”

Then Ntombi waka Msomi said: “Besathi bayakhuluma wabavala umlomo. As for your skin, it’s definitely skinning.”

Before that in 2002, she made her TV debut on SABC2 kids show Manhattan Fantasy Challenge.

She was 15 years old at the time.

In 2011, Bonang became the first Mzansi celebrity to launch an online reality show called B*Dazzled and in 2013, she became the first international ambassador for cosmetic brand Revlon, outside the USA.
