Tabitha Mary
Tabitha has always really loved playing around with make-up and she started my page in 2018 as a passion project while she was working my day job in Advertising. It wasn't really until Lockdown where she had the time to be more consistent with it and push her page further, building a little community in a way.
Growing up as a Tamil girl in a small city in Germany had its challenges, mainly in regards to the beauty standards at the time and not feeling like she fitted in. Tabitha never saw anybody that looked like her, both in the media and around her and even in the South Asian community, being of darker skin meant that she was faced with colourism from a young age which no doubt had an effect on her self-confidence. As she grew up and into her self-love era, she started seeing make-up as a creative outlet, and playing around with it more and more - using colours she usually wouldn't etc. really helped her come out of her shell.
