Following a disappointment in not being able to pay for her tuitions during her final year as a Law student at University of Botswana, Boitshepo Loeto opened a makeup business called Face Beat by Boi.

Unlike many young people who threw in the towel when the going got tough, Loeto decided to come up with a business idea that would generate income so that she puts food on her table. This 23-year-old Motswana woman grew up as an intelligent girl. She passed her final examinations from primary to senior secondary schools with flying colors.

At university, she studied Bachelor of Law from 2014 to 2016 and took a gap year in 2017. When she returned to school the following year, she lost her government sponsorship and had to pay for herself for the remaining two years. However, her dream to be a lawyer could not come true as her parents could not pay for her final year. She decided to come up with ideas to generate income that was when she picked up Face Beats outfit.

Each of the 10 beautiful young women had supporters...
