My Fab Story
This is my fab story...
At the age of 4 I was in a car accident which left me paralyzed from the chest down. I was always a cheerful/bubble child I blame my mom for that. I never not once felt like I was limit to anything, my wheelchair was invisible to me. At the age of 12 years old was a heart breaking time for me. This happened out of know where and unexpectedly. It was late at night and my parents went out, I was with my cousins and little sisters. We was watching "the passion of the christ" which was a movie we was too young to watch but we was young and hardheaded. Later that night I felt sad and not just any sad I was depress. So, I then went to my room and started crying. My cousins walked in my room asking me what's wrong, I then said "I can't walk". Crazy thing is my mom told me a while back that one day my disability will get to me but I didn't believe her. As I got older I went through many challenges that I never thought I would ever go through. I've noticed a lot that I couldn't do like dance like others, which made me cut out going to school dances I barely went to my Junior/Senior prom. Thanks to a good friend of mine Demone Robinson for taking me to my Junior prom and made my night by riding in a limo with me and kneeling down when it was time to take our prom pictures. Thanks to my friend Toni Jone aka cousin for challenging me to sign up for senior prom queen which I won. Down the line I started watching a lot of makeup tutorials on youtube and practicing on my own face. I then realized how playing with makeup was a coping mechanism for me to distract myself from feeling sad and depressed about my disability. At the age of 25 I decided to open up my own cosmetics line. With this cosmetics line I want to show each in individual that makeup is not just something people put on their face because they feel unpretty. Makeup is an expression, makeup is an enhancement, makeup is art. I want each individual to feel how I feel when I'm wearing makeup and that is Beautiful, Confident, Courageous, and most of all unstoppable.❤️❤️❤️
