Lifestyle Make me fabulous Relationships

All The Exciting Photos from Becky & Ben Elu’s Day on Make Me Fabulous Show!

Lagos is a city where the hustle and bustle can be so over whelming, you have little time to treat yourself and your loved one to an intimate time. You wake up very early in the morning to meet up with work time and appointments, spend hours in traffic, and get home exhausted most of the time!

Just like many couples in Lagos, that was the story of Becky and Ben Elu. Becky, who was obviously very overwhelmed with her hectic daily routine and the demands of taking care of her little son reached out to me on my website for a chance to be a part of the Make Me Fabulous show. And she got more than a chance, she got picked because… well… I could totally relate with her story.

Here’s what she wrote:
The reason why I should win this make over fabulous treat is that every day I have to wake up by 4:30AM and get ready for work, as a nursing mother because I & my husband would go and drop our baby in my Mum’s house and there’s no enough time.

Now tell me, who wouldn’t understand that! Sometimes it seems like 24 hours aren’t enough for one day right? What Becky and Ben needed was sometime away from their regular routine and a fabulous treatment.

Here are some exciting photos from their treat:

My desire for this couple was to give them a relaxed time away from their insanely busy schedules, and I'm glad we started achieving that earlier in the day.

    Hi Steph, I love ur innovation & pray God grants u ur heart’s desires IJN. Please Steph, make me look fabulous ‘cos I have a very low esteem abt myself. To worsen it all, my big & flappy tummy discourages me a lot,sports on my face & so on & on. Make me look fab. So my hubby can fall in love wth his Mary.
