| LAST UPDATE 10/17/2021
Meet Lex, a self-taught body painter and makeup artist who has rocked the internet and rose to fame on TikTok as one of the most creative platform. From Halloween looks to mimicking characters from some of our favorite movies, this gal wows! But, her talents weren't always so fonded over.
On her YouTube channel, she explained, "Most of the time growing up, I felt like an alien on this planet. I was 'different' and very driven towards my goals. I spent, and still spend, most of my time creating. I didn't WANT to fit in. I just wanted to be myself."

She continued, explaining that the reason she created her channel, Madeyewlook, was to "Find other creative 'oddballs' like myself!" Since she got her start, Lex has expanded the vision she had for her hobby to include selling merchandise so others could join in on the makeup fun!
With over 2.5M views on YouTube, she expanded Madeyewlook onto other platforms such as TikTok. And, her makeup magic has since racked up over 1.7M followers and more than 17.4M likes! It seems like this artist had found her knack and isn't planning to slow down anytime soon.
Now, Lex doesn't just do costume-style makeup. She knows how to blend out an incredible smokey eye as well! Nevertheless, she stands out from the rest with her extravagant and unique styles no matter what style she's going for. And, we think her 905K followers on Insta tend to agree!
There's no denying that Lex's makeup is out of this world. She not only wows her social media followers with her intricate makeup but has shown off her abilities to create the perfect props too! She's an incredible one-woman show! Thankfully, she doesn't keep all the fun for herself...
