My mom has always been into makeup and I took after her and also when I was 11 I discovered MacBarbie07 and fell even deeper in love with the makeup and beauty world.

Being a Graphic Artist!
Alot of my art work was from scratch or re-paints. So from drawing a nose to doing the makeup was just as important!
Blending is key even digitally ♥

I got really into Youtube about last summer and went from link to link until I ended up on a beauty tutorial from Shaaanxo. I was mesmerized by the endless possibilities and kept researching from there. Of course once I got Beautylish it doubled even more xx 💋

Well I have this medical condition called Hursutism. Basically, I have a lot of androgen (hair making hormone) and I pretty much have a beard. I have to shave everyday like a man. And since I have really dark and coarse hair (thanks Italian genes) you can still see it when I shave. So I learned about foundation and that helps but you can still see it.

In 6th grade I was just interested in hair but then in 7th grade I wanted to learn how to do makeup so I went on YouTube and fell in love with makeup! I remember Michelle phans "natural makeup" tutorial was the first beauty video I've ever watched(:

About a year ago I developed OCD and it really changed me. I wore a bit of makeup at the time but it became my escape through all the stress I have. I felt beautiful in makeup and really thought I could create what I wanted to be and wipe it off at the end of the day. I learned that beauty comes in so many different images but yet none of perfection. I learned so much and so thankful for you guys and everything makeup in general has done for me. Sorry this was so long.
P.S I loved star doll too,

My friend told me everyday that I should wear makeup so I did because I felt bad about my face because I've always had acne problems
But a could years later I started to wear makeup because I loved it, not because I hated my face.
And I've always been obsessed with makeup tutorials
