Mint Manis for Talia Joy <3

Hi lovelies.

Today, I have a very special post, dedicated to a very special little girl. 
This past week, the beauty community lost one its most amazing and precious members, Talia Joy Castellano. If you don't know who she was, she was an immensely talented aspiring make-up artist, you may have seen her on YouTube or 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show,' who was battling cancer at just 13 years old. Sadly, she lost that battle and passed away this week. 
I was so heartbroken to hear about her passing. I will never understand why these beautiful innocent children have to go through something as difficult as cancer. No child should ever have to suffer that way. At least now she's in a better place, and her suffering is over,  even though everyone down here on Earth will miss her dearly. 

To honor her life, the wonderful Nicole from Nail Polish Wars has set up a tribute, as a way for all of us in the beauty community to say goodbye and pay our condolences to her family. The last picture she posted on her InstaGram account was a photo of her and her mother's nails, painted with a Mint colored manicure. So to pay tribute, we are posting Mint colored manicures today, with the hashtags #MintManisForTaliaJoy and #TaliasLegacy.  


I'm glad that we can do something to to honor her, and I want to say a huge Thank You to Nicole for setting this all up. 

Here is my Mint Mani dedicated to Talia Joy. 
This is Luxecoat - Mint Chip, with a coat of Zoya - Opal overtop.

This is my personal favorite moment I saw of Talia, from when she appeared  on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show.' 

R.I.P. Beautiful Angel, the world will miss you. "Just keep swimming." <3

[Note: Out of respect for Talia, I wanted to have my page be fully dedicated to her today, and feature this as the only post for the day. I will have the final day of the Comic-Con Geek Week Challenge up tomorrow.]
