Plot
The series revolves around Bhengu Beauty, a South African global beauty empire and Zinhle Manzini, the face of the brand, who surreptitiously plots her revenge against the Bhengu family.[6] The public is unaware that Don and Grace Bhengu's lucrative beauty business was founded on the immoral practice of testing a skin-lightening product on children. That is, until one of two survivors, Zinhle, appears 15 years later with a plan to expose them and ruin their empire.[7]
