I’m Not ‘Too Fat’ To Be A Doll | HOOKED ON THE LOOK

A GIRL who refers to herself as a ‘living art doll’ has opened up about how developing an expressive personal style helped her overcome severe hardship. Skye McLaughlin, of Perkiomenville, Pennsylvania, endured years of bullying before she combined her love of art, makeup, and fashion to create her unique look. Inspired by drag, clowns, dolls, and Japanese Harajuku fashion, Skye worked on creating her ‘living art doll’ style, using elaborate makeup to ‘caricature emotions’, despite being told she was “too fat” to be a doll.

“ w a t c h m e”

[FrothLyfeSailingNandji]

Wow wow wow!! Her makeup is so unique and creative! Wish she would start a makeup channel!!

[bluBlaq]

She’s basically a makeup artist, and not the vapid “for clout” makeup artists, she’s a real artist.

I didn't expect the comment section to be so positive...well done folks ✌

[christinastroud]

I kinda agree with her...life is miserable so why not have fun

[navreetkaursidhu]

I can't believe she turned so positive and beautiful both inside and out despite all the bullying. It takes a lot of courage to forgive people who made your life hell but she's one strong, beautiful and kind person.

[zoemacdonald]

Her being fat has nothing to do with her art. She is a talented artist and is so so so beautiful!

[trashprincess]

This lady is such a kind soul. I can just feel her positive energy through this feature. I love her

[miahlouisa]

From the moment she was like “watch me” I liked her already
Her vibe and energy is just amazing and powerful fr

I compelelty respect the "people deserve to be forgiven" aspect of this. The world needs so MUCH more of that.

"even an outcast amongst outcasts"

“even an outcast among outcasts.” ...that’s deep.

[cleavengere]

Right when I saw her I was like “why is she literally the most prettiest girl ever” no joke I love her makeup/art/style she is just everything

[veeveeveeveev]

I've been following her for years, she's one of the best make up artists I've ever seen. Truly talented and so beautiful <3

[MsMel-gsxe]

She needs to be in Hollywood doing make up for movies and celebrities...wonderful talent she’s got

I LOVE her
Her nose is also super cute
I completely agree with the whole "just have more fun with your life- wear clown makeup"
I want to look like a freak it's so fun

[mariannarappa]

She’s so pretty and I love her makeup. Hearing her story, I cried. I just wanted to give her a hug. ❤️
