In a world where makeup and image are often considered essential for performers, Mai Banda Music is breaking the mold.
The singer has revealed that she does not wear makeup, even when performing on stage. "I will have my natural look and my natural hair," she stated. "However, if I go for a photo shoot, upon request I will use makeup and as soon as the shoot is done I wash it all off."
When asked about her decision, Mai Banda Music explained that she asked God to renew her youth as soon as she felt her kids were grown. "That also meant I could go back to my music aggressively as I am racing with time. I am not a spring chicken anymore," she said.
The singer also emphasized that she has eliminated anything that may compromise her health, fitness, and peace of mind. "At 30, I stopped completely using makeup. I began to look after my skin and body more. At 40, I was still on the same routine. Now approaching my 50s, I won’t look back," she added. "Hopefully my 50s will do me well because I don’t have the same energy I had at 35."
Mai Banda Music's decision to embrace her natural beauty and prioritize her health and well-being is a refreshing change in the music industry.
