Concealing features that don’t align with societal standards is common, with many people dedicating years to hiding their perceived flaws.
For Tiffany Taylor, makeup became a daily ritual. Diagnosed with vitiligo at 14, she was devastated by her condition and turned to heavy foundation to cover her white patches, even hiding it from close friends. Although she saw others living openly with vitiligo, she struggled to accept her own skin.
Teen years can be especially challenging for girls who feel different. Tiffany’s family and friends supported her decision to use high-end makeup, without pressuring her to reveal her natural appearance.
Everything changed when she saw model Winnie Harlow proudly embracing her vitiligo. Inspired, Tiffany attended a Halloween party dressed as Harlow, for the first time without makeup. The overwhelmingly positive response surprised her—people complimented her without realizing they were seeing the real Tiffany.
This experience transformed her. She began to embrace her appearance, sharing unfiltered photos on social media, where her natural beauty received widespread admiration.
