HOLIDAY WISH

A makeup starter kit for Assetou who has been watching tutorials on YouTube

Posted Nov 23, 2024
This holiday season, Assetou’s wish list includes something new: makeup. As a creative and artistic person, she has always been fascinated by the transformative power of cosmetics. Watching YouTube tutorials and online videos has become a daily excitement for her, as she learns about different techniques, products, and styles. However, Assetou’s interest in makeup goes beyond mere aesthetics; it is also about connection and belonging. As she navigates her social circle, Assetou realizes that makeup is not just a hobby but a common language that many of her friends share. By learning about makeup, she is able to join in on conversations, share tips and tricks, and bond with her peers over their shared interests. It is a way for her to find her tribe and surround herself with like-minded individuals who appreciate her creativity and passion.

Assetou is 17 years old and lives in NJ

Assetou's passion for art is a constant companion in her life. Adopted at the tender age of four, she grew up surrounded by the love and support of her adoptive family, who encouraged her creative pursuits. From the vibrant paintings that adorn her childhood bedroom walls to the intricate sculptures that earn her top honors in school, creativity is always her outlet. Now, as she embarks on the next chapter of her journey, Assetou has decided to pursue a degree in fine arts, eager to hone her skills and transform her lifelong passion into a fulfilling career. A subtle memory of a snow globe, given to her by her adoptive parents on one of her earliest birthdays, flickers in her mind, its miniature snowflakes and gentle music evoking a sense of warmth and comfort that seems to transcend time.
