The former Big Brother Naija housemate explained her decision to pursue makeup artistry was deeply personal and that she began at age 14.
“I had a very hardworking and prayerful mother. Even though she’s late, I always feel the need and urge to make her proud. If she had the same opportunity I have right now, she would do everything I have done and even more. That is why I keep being me. My double Guinness Book of Records honours were behind it. I am a beauty founder, and I have plans to launch my cosmetic line by September. It will be called Tacha Beauty. I wanted my outfit and overall look to reflect that journey. I’ve been into makeup since I was 14 years old. I didn’t want to keep explaining how good I am, I just wanted to show my skills,” she said, adding that her upcoming beauty brand is a continuation of that passion,” she stated.
Tacha also offered words of encouragement to young women, urging them to remain confident and determined in pursuing their goals.
“I want them to keep getting inspired. They should not stop; they should not ask for permission; they should keep soaring. Be confident in yourselves and live your best lives because you only live once,” she advised.
