Marimar Quiora is making a name for herself on YouTube with her make-up tutorials – despite being born with a facial tumour that leaves her unable to speak or eat.

According to The Sun, Quiora once hid her face from strangers in the street, but now proudly bares her beauty to millions of people who follow her online. She was born with a facial tumour called cystic hygroma, which means she has to use sign language in her videos to communicate. She has become a great inspiration to many people.
  
Marimar, from California, said: “To me, beauty means to accept yourself for who you are, and to ignore what other people tell you.

“You show your beauty how it is, it doesn't matter if you have a different looking face, accept yourself how you are.”
 
Marimar’s mum Maria didn’t know of her condition until after she was born and in her younger years she would struggle with her appearance. The woman who has been always interested in makeup decided to achieve her dreams by starting her own video blog on YouTube which has become an instant success with over five million views and gets countless messages from women who she has inspired.

She said: “People type their comments after they view my videos, and they say some really nice things. They tell me I'm beautiful and they love my makeup.”
 
Sadly not everyone has been so positive about Marimar’s venture, and she has received some abuse from online trolls. But, she's upbeat about the whole situation. She doesn't allow negative talk or people to weigh her down.

Marimar’s biggest fans are her mum Maria and her older sister, Airam, 24. She is living her dream life and hopes to inspire more people.
