Breaking Hollywood As A Disabled Make-Up Artist I SHAKE MY BEAUTY

AT BIRTH, Khloe Quintana was only able to move her eyes and was thought to be in a vegetative state. She was born with Spastic Cerebral Palsy; a condition which causes stiff muscles and in Khloe’s case means severely restricted movement on her right side. But the now-24-year-old has spent her life demonstrating how she isn’t defined by her condition; defying doctors’ expectations and embracing her passions. Khloe, of Thousand Oaks, California, told Barcroft Studios: “I started from the bottom, I started from nothing, and here I am through hard work and perseverance, surrounding myself with the right people, and having a positive attitude. If you put in the hard work and the dedication, nobody can stop you.” So far, Khloe has wowed friends and family by performing in musical theatre, singing, and recently studying to become a professional makeup artist - despite only being able to use her left hand. The young Angeleno, who still requires a wheelchair to get around, says she wants to help others embrace their best self. She said: “Sometimes how you feel on the inside and what you're showing is not actually how your true self is. Just being creative, being able to do a full face of makeup and getting out there and just living life, it transforms you as a person.”
