Beauty and makeup Artist on YouTube also known as Shalom Blac who inspires 500,000 subscribers as a serious burn survivor.
She was nine years old and living in Nigeria when an frying oil accident left possibly fatal burns all over her upper body and face. She spent four months in the hospital.
She learned her expertise in makeup by watching other YouTubers like Kandee Johnson beginning at the age of 13.
She has a younger sister who was also burned in the same accident. Their aunt helped them get visas to live in the U.S. so they could have reconstructive surgery. She has featured her boyfriend Michael Seaton Jr. in her "Boyfriend Tries to Guess Makeup Prices" video.
Huda Kattan helped spread Shalom's story on the web.
