The brand is offering young women throughout Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal the opportunity to compete for this prestigious title. The Gauteng competition continues at various malls until 10 September.

Ethne Whitley, spokesperson for Lux, says a long list of international and local beauty icons have endorsed various Lux beauty products since the first Lux beauty campaign was launched in the 1920s. "This year we're looking for young South African women who epitomise the title, as well as the positioning of the new soft touch range."

Sonia Sedibe, the current face of Lux, is the patron of this beauty pageant and will provide valuable hints and tips to assist entrants to make the most of this opportunity.
