It's time to introduce you to a new face soon to be seen everywhere: Herieth Paul. The Tanzanian model, 20, was announced as the new global spokesmodel for Maybelline today, joining the likes of Gigi Hadid and Jourdan Dunn as a #MaybellineGirl. It's a major step for inclusivity in the beauty industry–you rarely see a Black woman with a short, natural Afro in national beauty campaigns.
"When I first started modeling in 2011, there were very few darker-skinned girls. Now I see girls from all over the world," Paul said in an interview. "I feel like [diversity] is getting better—we're not there yet—but I see a change. There's still some work to be done!"
