00:00Makeup is for everybody. If you want to wear makeup, do it. Why not?
00:13I mean, men still say that it's just for girls, but no. I mean, we're in 2018.
00:20We have to start to change our mind a little bit and be a little bit more acceptable with certain things.
00:30In my country, it's rough. In my country, if you go out with a man and you're not even gay,
00:41they will say that you're gay and they will call you by really bad words.
00:47In America, we have much more freedom.
00:50Here in America, if you have a partner, like your couple, and you're gay, you can go outside.
01:03I used to paint on a canvas when I was a young guy.
01:08And that day, I just said, OK, let's use my face as a canvas. Why not?
01:15I started to believe in myself. I started to be really, really confident with me.
01:20I was so proud of myself.
01:27I have a lot of followers from Russia, from India, from China. I don't know, from everywhere.
01:46Some of us have acne or breakouts or things like that.
01:52And with a concealer, we can hide that.
01:55Or with a concealer, we can hide our dark spots under our eyes.
02:01I have like 25,000 followers.
02:04And I have a lot of DMs on my Instagram and Twitter that I got young guys saying,
02:12Oh my God, you inspire me to do makeup. You inspire me to start doing what I love.
02:20And for me, it's like, don't be afraid of who you are.
02:24You inspire me to do my, to start doing what I love.
02:28And for me, it's like, don't be afraid of who you are.
