I'm really glad that I kept the gap. There are a lot of iconic women from past and present who have one.

Modelling has really helped build my confidence.

I love using color.

My lips are a lot thinner than what makeup artists usually create, because they make them almost graphic.

I was actually always really self-conscious about my gap. In middle school, this group of girls were always trying to beat me up - they called my gap a parking lot. It was a really awkward time.

I try to be extra creative with the colors and textures I wear during fashion week. It's not for street style, though; I just like dressing sometimes.

When I was younger, most people thought my lips looked like Tweety Bird's - there were always comments like that from family and neighbors.

I don't believe in putting petroleum or preservatives on my skin. Over time, you kind of just want to go back to basics.

I actually use baking soda to exfoliate my lips - I mix a little bit with water and use my fingers to lightly scrub with it. Then I use jojoba oil and olive oil to keep them moisturized.

I wear everything to jeans and a t-shirt to Zac Posen ball gowns.
