You can also expect that the experience will stand out from any other makeup moments you’ve had. That’s because Ruiz paints faces in a totally original way. To apply lipstick, eyeshadow, and liner she holds the brushes in her mouth. The full-time makeup artist, who does everything from weddings to fashion shows, was born with arthrogryposis, a disease that has prevented her from having full movement in her arms and hands. Despite the fact that her family was told she may never walk or talk, Ruiz has done all those things and more, finding brilliantly creative solutions to any challenges that cropped up.  More photo after the cut
