Tacha Akide, the
former Big Brother Naija (BBN) housemate, is set to attempt a new Guinness
World Record (GWR) for the most makeover created in a 24-hour.
In a post
via Instagram, the reality star shared throwback clips of herself
applying makeup on others and on herself, describing the craft as her “first
love”.
The attempt, which also serves as a three-day beauty
festival, is scheduled for October 10 to 12 at the John Randle Centre, Onikan,
Lagos.
Tacha described the festival as more than an event, but a
convergence of culture, creativity, commerce, and national pride.
She added that it would also spotlight Nigeria’s beauty
industry through trainings, exhibitions, and networking.
“I’m putting together the BIGGEST 3 Days Beauty festival and
A Guinness World Record attempt for the most numbers of makeovers in 24 hours!”
she wrote.
“Between Oct 10th-12th, 2025 at John Randle Centre for
Yorùbá Culture & History
“This is more than just a beauty festival, it’s a powerful
convergence of culture, creativity, commerce, and national pride. As we attempt
to make history with the Guinness World Record for the most makeovers in 24
hours.
“We’re also spotlighting Nigeria’s booming beauty industry
and its potential as a driver of economic growth and global influence.
“This is a 3 days round the clock experience for all beauty
enthusiasts in makeup, fashion, skincare, wellness, hair and others as we explore
through trainings, empowerment workshops, business hacks. exhibitions and
networking.”
To set the record, Tacha will have to surpass Sierra
Leone’s Mary Yongai, who achieved 111 makeovers in 24 hours by a single artist.
Yongai accomplished the feat in Freetown on April 30, 2024.
However, it remains unclear if the reality TV star has
received approval from the Guinness World Records (GWR) to undertake the
attempt.
