[3] Nasanyana is a fashion model born in the town of Lodwar, situated in the Turkana District of Kenya.
In November 2003, Nasanyana traveled to Europe to build her portfolio prior to the Supermodel finals in New York City.
[3] Besides modeling, Nasanyana has decried the apparent trend in her native Kenya toward rejection of the indigenous Black African physical standards of beauty in favour of those of other communities.
In an interview with the Kenyan broadsheet the Daily Nation, she stated that "it seems that the world is conspiring in preaching that there is something wrong with Kenyan ladies' kinky hair and dark skin[...] Their leaflets are all about skin lightening, and they seem to be doing good business in Kenya.
She hopes that her products will inspire her contemporaries to love their own appearance instead of attempting to alter it through artificial means, such as by skin bleaching.
