A TEENAGER who was bullied at school and used face painting as a form of escapism is hoping for a career in the industry.
Eve Hirst, 14, would lock herself in her bedroom and watch tutorial clips on the internet about how to create art using make up.
She started practising on her relatives and has now created her own Facebook page called Eve's Fake-Up.
Mum Becky, 33, said Eve was pulled out of Barnsley Academy for six weeks in her first year because of constant bullying and name calling, eventually joining Horizon Community College.
