When she was 13 years old, Reddit user TheSmeggingCompass began experimenting with makeup. Since then, the beauty maven — whose real name is Hannah — has used makeup as a form of art therapy.

The 20-year-old biomedical engineering student likes to sport bold, experimental looks to her part-time job at a community recreation center, and often gets a positive response from coworkers. But Hannah recently found out the hard way that not everyone appreciates a makeup statement as much as she does.

...

"He kept telling me that I was an attractive person without all that stuff on (first of all, gross), and that he prefers his women barefaced. The final straw was the day he told me that I shouldn’t wear makeup because I was in a long-term relationship and didn’t need to impress anyone," Hannah said.

After enduring this totally inappropriate, unsolicited advice, Hannah decided to fight back in the best way she could: with makeup.

That is fantastic. I also love this part: "My makeup isn’t for you. It never was. I wear makeup because I love wearing color and I love how calming it is to spend time by myself in the morning blending eye shadow,"

Good for her. I love the look with the bright orange and yellow eyeshadow - it’s amazing.

I used to get that when I was in college and favored dramatic cat eyes—that I would be more attractive without it. Which wasn’t the point. I was going for a look.

Her response was much kinder than mine. I'm pretty sure mine would have been "fuck off, your opinion is unsolicited. You don't like it? Keep your unwanted attention off of me." Toxic masculinity in full display. HOWEVER, her looks are amazing, her blending skills are fierce.

I hate that men think they get an opinion on my or any person's makeup. She handled it much better than I have! I love her look with the yellow, orange, red shadow.
