Lola Maja-Okojevoh

Lola Maja has been working as a makeup artist for over 16 years. She is also a qualified Holistic Beauty Therapist, Eyebrow and
Eyelash Specialist with her own range of Professional Artistry Eyelashes (www.sacredlashes.com).

Lola currently works with several Spas around Nigeria as a Consultant helping to set up and maintain international professional standards, train staff and educate the general public about the entire “Spa Experience”. She is the Director of the soon to be launched Sacred Creative Artistry Academy & The Spectrum Academy located at the Bnatural Spa in Ikeja GRA. The Beauty Academy is associated with a leading US School and all our students are thereby awarded with Internationally recognised qualifications which can be accepted throughout the
world.

Through the Academies and in conjunction with the Bnatural Spa, Lola sits on the board of two newly established and soon to be launched governing bodies; NSPA (Nigerian Spa Association) and the NNECA (Nigerian National Esthetics & Cosmetology Association).

Lola currently writes for several different magazines including the newly launched FAB Magazine. To add to her portfolio, she has worked on several music videos in the UK and Nigeria, most recently working on hair & makeup for ElDee’s “One Day”, “You Blow My Mind”, Lami’s “Over Me”, Banky W’s “Follow you Go (sisi eko)” & “Lagos Party”, Omawumi’s “Today na Today” and Dr Sid’s “Something about You”. Special Effects Makeup is also an area that Lola is pioneering in Nigeria; creating characters, blood and gore for film and television.

Lola was also the head of Special Effects & Makeup on the highly acclaimed movie "The Figurine (Araromire)" which won 9 AMAA awards including “Best Visual Effects” by Award Winning Director, Kunle Afolayan. The film was also nominated for the Rotterdam, New York & Tokyo Film Festivals.

Lola works regularly with young people giving motivational lectures at events as well as just
those seeking change in their lives.

Through years of hard work, Lola has learned to constantly keep on top of the ever changing fashions and trends. Creatively evolving and never staying stagnant. She is a driving force in promoting the concept of natural beauty, especially for every day use. Working with her clients to take care of their skin with the strong belief that beautiful makeup starts with healthy skin underneath.

Above all, Lola is most passionate about encouraging new artists to open their minds and embrace their freedom of expression through creative makeup artistry. One style really does not suit all.
