Yolanda Mukondeleli Celebrates World Vitiligo Day With A Breathtaking Photo Shoot
Yolanda Mukondeleli Celebrates World Vitiligo Day With A Breathtaking Photo Shoot. Being comfortable in your own skin is one of the biggest favors you can do for yourself. Yolanda Mukondeleli is a shining example in this mindset as she has embraced living with vitiligo.
Vitiligo is a disease that destroys skin pigment cells, causing the loss of skin color in blotches. This happens because the cells that make pigment (color) in the skin are destroyed.
The moment Yolanda stepped into the Big Brother Mzansi house, she stood out. Instead of hiding in some corner, she was bold, spoke her mind, and embraced her beauty. Even when at some point some housemates poked her for her skin, Yolanda took it with a pinch of salt, she did not take it to heart, and life went on.
Today as it is World Vitiligo Day, the reality show star and model, is celebrating the day, the best way she can. Yolanda went for a photo shoot, with some male models with the same condition. This is basically to show people that, your conditions don’t have to define you. You can actually become anything you want, vitiligo or not.
Embracing our differences, celebrating our uniqueness. Let’s paint the world with love and acceptance on World Vitiligo Day 🌍💙 HAPPY WORLD’s VITILIGO DAY ❤️
Quite a number of our local stars have vitiligo, and they are proud. One of them is multi-award winning actress Leleti Khumalo. Just like Yolanda, Mam’ Leleti had the skin condition when she was grown. She found out about the disease when she was 24 and that it came from her father’s side of the family. Brighton Ngoma, and actor also has Vitiligo, and always advice others to celebrate their skin.
