Meet CoverGirl's First Male Covergirl!
The Huffington Post

17 year old New York-based makeup artist, James Charles was signed as CoverGirl's first male CoverGirl this past Tuesday, October 11th. The news was announced via Katy Perry's Instagram page.

James will be featured in campaigns for a new mascara being launched by the brand called “So Lashy”. The mascara is said to work on different lash types, therefore James is the perfect person for the campaign.



James Charles can be recognized not only from his talent and skills, but also from his senior pictures that went viral as a result of him wanting them to be on point and poppin’.

In an interview with Cosmopolitan, James talked about how he got into makeup. Because creativity is his nature, he started styling hair, doing other people’s makeup, and practicing on himself as well! He also talked about how he doesn’t pay much mind to online hate anymore, especially because he has more pressing matters at hand.


James believes that one day, makeup will be completely genderless. With CoverGirl signing him as a brand ambassador, we are one step closer to that future.

James is the first male ambassador of CoverGirl since the company began in 1961.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
