Todays post is kinda bittersweet because its about something that really makes me sad..
It's about Talia Joy Castellano, or some of you may know her at taliajoy18 from youtube or twitter.
First let me tell you how I found out about her story....
When i got addicted to youtube makeup videos everyone was talking about a girl named Talia.. and how she was so so good at makeup, and had cancer. I didn't start watching Talia because of her cancer, i watched her because she created amazing videos.

"Makeup is my wig." -taliajoy
that was what she said.. because she lost her hair to cancer and chemo therapy, most people in those circumstances would've worn a wig but those seemed to bug her, maybe because they were fake hair but she never wore a wig.. she said makeup was her wig and it made her confident.
She was 13 years old.. 13.
