COVER STORY

d i v a e D yedik n O o debay A e w bengo udo A k A y B

D

avid Onyedike, popularly known in the beauty industry as Davesucre, is one celebrity Makeup artist who has created amazing beauty looks with his brush.

Gracing the cover of Beauty Box, the talented MUA who also did his own cover-look make-up shared the story of his rise and rise in the industry. We can confidently say that the best is yet to come for this budding artiste, as he reveals his future plans in the industry…..

Take us down history lane to how you became a makeup artist?

I have always been a lover of arts and as a kid I enjoyed drawing, painting and everything colourful. My mum always called me a gifted child so everyone in my family knew I was arts inclined hence I was encouraged to study Theatre Arts at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka where I majored in costume and makeup. The rest they say is history.

What celebrity clients have you worked with and who are your favourites?

I have worked with popular celebrities like Genevive Nnaji, Tiwa Savage, Late Goldie, Omotola, Waje, Tonto Dikeh, Omawumi, Toolz, Dbanj, Ezinne Akudo, Anna Banner, Kate Henshaw, Niyola, Don Jazzy, the list is endless.

What are your most defining moments as an MUA? My most defining moments as a makeup artist have been winning the FAB award in 2011 as the makeup artist of the year, working at the London fashion week and opening my studio called Davesucre.

How about challenges?

There has been a lot of challenges along the line but the hardest has been dealing with power supply, beating Lagos traffic to meet up with appointments and dealing with lazy and unserious staff.

How long does it take you to do a makeover on a client?

It takes me about 15 minutes to finish a face if the client sits still.

What is your best makeup product and why?

My best makeup product is the Lancome Miracle Nude foundation.

It’s simply amazing.

What do you think is the way forward for MUA’s in the future?

Unity is the way forward.

What future projections are you planning for?

I have plans of launching the DaveSucre makeup line sometime in the nearest future. So lipsticks, brow pencils etc with the name Davesucre is on the pipeline.
