This week, the spotlight is on the thrilling second season of ‘Savage Beauty,’ which premiered this past weekend on Netflix.
The first season captured viewers with its intense story of vengeance, centering on Zinhle (Rosemary Zimu). She infiltrated the powerful Bhengu family as the “Face of Bhengu Beauty” to avenge the tragic effects of a skin-lightening cream that disfigured her and killed many of her loved ones. The Bhengu family, led by Grace and Don Bhengu (Nthati Moshesh and Dumisani Mbebe), are determined to protect their beauty empire and unmask their enemy.
Season 2 begins with a shocking twist: Don Bhengu, previously thought dead, is revealed to be alive. Now aware of Zinhle’s plot for revenge, Don becomes a dangerous foe. With her brother gone, Zinhle continues her mission alone while maintaining her position in Bhengu Beauty.

The drama intensifies when Don confronts Zinhle in his mansion, leading to a tragic confrontation where his son Ndu (Oros Mampofu) is fatally shot. Blaming Zinhle for his son’s death, Don incites a police manhunt as Zinhle hides in Soweto, gathering evidence against Don and Grace.
Meanwhile, Grace attempts to leverage Don’s relationship with Zinhle to oust him as CEO, but her plans are disrupted by Ndu’s death. Despite the turmoil, Grace remains determined to claim the CEO position.
At Ndu’s funeral, Grace’s ambition is clear as financier Richard Moloto (Tony Kgoroge) approaches her. Phila (Jesse Suntele) meets Charlie (Lebogang Fisher), and Thando (Angela Sithole) proposes to Linda (Nambitha Ben-Mazwi). The power struggle within Bhengu Beauty escalates as Don fights the board’s decision to appoint Grace as CEO.

Savage Beauty Season 2 brings high-stakes drama and unexpected twists. The fierce rivalry between Zinhle and the Bhengu family, coupled with internal power struggles, offers a gripping viewing experience. Tune in to Netflix to follow the dark and dangerous world of the Bhengu family, where loyalty, betrayal, and revenge are at play.
