The #FlexxYourCreativity contest was targeted at young Nigerians aged between 16-25 years skilled in makeup, hair styling and fashion accessories designs. Up for grabs was N600,000 prize money as capital to help the winners grow their businesses, as well as the opportunity to have their work displayed on an acclaimed fashion stage.
At the end of the exciting and exhilarating journey which involved public voting, panel voting and a Live Demo of skills, Ibukun Ogundipe clinched the top prize of N300,000. Temitayo Balogun and Ogana Lucy Lynda emerged in the 2nd and 3rd positions, winning N200,000 and N100,000 respectively. All three winners also got to work backstage with the #Dare2Dream team and showcased their creativity on several models at the Dare2Dream Season 4 Grand Finale which held on Sunday, September 10, 2017.
#FlexxYourCreativity is an initiative exclusively for holders of FCMB`s Youth Account Flexx.
