Before starting his own beauty business, the teen was a self-taught cosmetics artist who established his collection from the comfort of his home. According to his official website, he perfected his beauty methods under the tutelage of the world’s top makeup artists, including Joanne Gair and Mathy Andersen. He has collaborated with major names in the cosmetics world, including Pat McGrath, during Paris Fashion Week.
