Meet the makeup artist who wants you to stop labelling women and girls with BS gender stereotypes

Meet the makeup artist who wants you to stop labelling women and girls with BS gender stereotypes

Slut, prude, damaged, ugly, lazy, dirty, asking for it...

Makeup artist, Jordan Hanz, wants you to please stop applying these bile-laced gender stereotypes to women and girls thank you very much.

In her latest video, the 24-year-old - famed online for her breathtaking beauty transformations - is unapologetic in her message:

How dare you tell me who to be and what is wrong or right. F--k the box we are put in to.

Be who you want to be and be proud of that.

The project, titled Unattainable Women, sees Hanz paint hate-filled words across her skin before wiping them away and declaring herself and all other women "as ladylike as f--k'


We as women must empower each other and build each other up. Love ourselves, love every ounce of you. These ideals are unattainable and impractical.

Hanz, who is a victim of sexual assault, told BuzzFeed News she was made to feel it was her fault.

"Victim-blaming and slut-shaming is something that I want to break down. Writing the words on my body was actually more emotional than I thought it would be."
