For me, beauty is synonymous with uniqueness . . . perfection is mundane, boring, and emotionless. It is by celebrating the differences in others that we can begin to accept our own individuality.

Makeup should be fun, not fascist.

Glamour is not self-conscious; it’s not trying really hard. It’s just expressing your own truth. I think that’s what the essence of glamour really is—expressing your uniqueness.

It is the free spirited men and women that we most admire and often envy - those individuals who dare to be themselves.

Growing up, my ideals were Barbra Streisand, Cher, and my mom.

Soon I realized that if beauty equalled forgiveness, I was never going to be forgiven.

I also have this incredible love for women.
