Reality star and influencer Natacha Akide, widely known as Symply Tacha, has set two new Guinness World Records for performing the most cosmetic makeovers within 8 hours and 24 hours.
A Guinness World Records adjudicator verified her achievement, confirming that she surpassed the previous records in both timeframes.
On October 11, Tacha completed 82 makeovers in 8 hours and an impressive 144 makeovers in 24 hours at a makeup station in Lagos.
Despite facing a severe storm and multiple power outages that disrupted the event, Tacha persevered and continued to work on the makeovers.
Tacha said, “We faced a nine-hour storm that disrupted everything. The rain poured so heavily that our screens, monitors, and branding fell apart. The wind scattered the setup, and we had to rebuild the venue from scratch mid-event.
“On top of that, we experienced multiple power outages during the 24-hour attempt. The lights went off three or four times, but I refused to stop. My team turned on their phone flashlights, and I kept doing makeovers in the dark.
“It wasn’t just about makeup anymore; it was about proving that nothing could stop us.”
Her determination and skill were evident in the stunning transformations of the women, who were thrilled with their new looks.
The Big Brother Naija star expressed her gratitude to her team, models, and fans for their support.
