Cirque Cadia Cosmetics

Growing up, I was an extremely shy and timid person, and the last thing I wanted to do was stand out in a crowd. In 2010, I started performing in live theater with my best friend, which is where I became more confident and found my voice. It's also where I fell in love with makeup and how it helped aide people in expressing their emotions and the confidence it gave others. It wasn't until 2017 that I decided I wanted to pursue a career in the cosmetic industry. After listening to Lin-Manuel Miranda's musical Hamilton, I realized that like Alexander Hamilton, I shouldn't let anything stand in my way of chasing my dreams, which is what inspired me to open my own line.
