100 Years of Diné Beauty

100 Years of Diné Beauty

I love watching these “100 Years of Beauty in 1 minute” videos from WatchCut. They've featured women from several different countries like Mexico, Korea, Brazil and now they turn their lens to some of our Indigenous beauties right here.

The lovely Sage Honga was the model featured in the video. Helping with the research and jewelry was Nanibaa Beck, AKA Not Above, whose jewelry we've featured in our gift guide before. Erin Skipley did Hair & Makeup and Sage's mother Charlotte Honga was the Styling Assistant.

And here's a little behind the scenes chat with Sage and Charlotte:

Good news is I think they're working on featuring other tribes in future videos. I can't wait!
