BY TAFADZWA KACHIKO MAKE-UP artist and fashion designer Charmaine Muchanyuka (pictured) has revealed that her debut entry into acting, as she took a leading role in the film Can of Worms, was a challenging and yet rewarding experience. Muchanyuka (28), who said she was now back home after a stint in South Africa, described her debut acting experience in which she played Hannah as enjoyable despite the challenges that came with it. “Being in front of a camera, vlogging, requires me to be myself but with acting I had to be someone else.

Becoming Hannah, expressing all her emotions and experiences allowed me to connect with people on a deeper level,” she said. “It was, therefore, an extremely challenging and yet rewarding experience.” As a make-up artist, Muchanyuka has for years worked with Jacque Mgido Cosmetics which did a lot of celebrity makeovers to personalities including South African house singers Bucie & Mpumi, former MTV Base presenters Farida and Kim Jayde as well as Bridge Entertainment when Cassper Nyovest filled up FNB Stadium.
