By Christy Anyanwu When you meet DabotaLawson, you are left in no doubt why she won the Miss Nigeria UK pageant in 2009 and also participated in Nigeria’s Top Model contest in 2007. Back when she was chummy with Aku, Dabota made ostentatious display of the life of luxury that he gave her. If she was not showing off vacations on a yacht or private jets, she would be sharing details of bank transactions in millions to taunt “haters.” DabotaLawson, founder of Dabota Cosmetics, is here to change that. More than a beauty queen, Lawson is an entrepreneur whose vision challenges conventional makeup stereotypes, proving that commitment to beauty can be just as powerful as the work within.
