Emily Jones suffers from a disease called Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (type 3) which requires her to use a feeding tube. Although she has said it made her feel self-conscious in the past, makeup has helped her find her confidence.
As an aspiring makeup artist, Emily has some serious skills. She told Allure that she works around her feeding tube: "I create looks around my tube by leaving a little bit of a gap around the edges so the tape doesn't come off or come loose," she said. "I try to put lots of drama on my eyes, the other side of my face, or on my lips to detract from the tube." Emily's passion for makeup is inspiring her nearly 39,000 Instagram followers to embrace what makes them different and not let it stop them from pursuing their dreams.
