A Nairobi woman recently took to social media to mock Citizen TV anchor Janet Mbugua for allegedly using makeup to hide her wrinkles.

Laying her sentiments on Kilimani Mums, a center for women in failed marriages, she posted photos of Janet with and without makeup.

The woman then thanked the inventor of makeup, saying it hides a lot in ladies. She wrote, "Lemie take this chance to thank the genius that invented #makeup couldn't tell its her until i checked again."

This post elicited mixed reactions from women, with some claiming that Janet is still beautiful with or without makeup.
