The 37-year-old lost her two front teeth in a quad bike accident in 2017 and initially struggled with self-esteem issues.
But now the makeup fanatic uses her online platform to show that beauty lies within and to help others embrace their insecurities.
“Losing my teeth initially affected my self-esteem, but in the long run, it helped me gain self-esteem and love myself more anyway,” says Sarah.
“I started using clip on veneers in 2021 and they changed my life.
“I’m much more confident with them and they make me feel good about myself.
“I hope to get mine fixed permanently when I am financially able.”
Despite spending two hours on her elaborate makeup transformations, Sarah says she typically doesn’t wear much on a day-to-day basis.
“I wear very little makeup on a daily basis, but I wear veneers every day,” she explains.
“I wear my glamorous looks for date night with my boyfriend or for filming.
“Other than that, I’m pretty natural.”
In a recent post, Sarah filmed herself before applying any makeup and without veneers, before showing herself fully made up with pink eyeshadow, long blonde braids and her trusty cut-out teeth.
Although some users pointed out the apparent use of an old-age filter in the ‘before’ clip, she was widely praised for the stunning look.
One person commented: “Please share the secrets and which teeth you are using.”

“She is an icon,” said another fan.
Someone else added: “Oh damn I wish I could do my makeup that well.”
“Impressive,” agreed another user.
Another viewer added: “Wow! These are skills!!
WHAT IS CAT FISHING?
By Ellie Flynn
‘Catfishing’ is when someone creates fake profiles on social media sites to make people think they are someone else.
It’s most common on social media and dating apps like Tinder.
They invent life stories and use photographs of innocent victims to create false identities. Catfishers add life experiences, jobs, friends and photographs to the fake accounts.
Where did the term Catfish come from?
The term was first used in the 2010 documentary ‘Catfish’ – in which Nev Schulman discovered that the beautiful woman he fell in love with online was a middle-aged married mother.
Schulman fell in love with “Megan” — but also chatted with her mother Angela, her half-sister Abby and her stepfather Vince online.
At the end of the documentary, Schulman discovers that “Megan” was a fake account run by Angela using photos of a family friend.
After becoming suspicious, Schulman drives to “Megan’s” address – and finds Angela, who admits to being behind the account the whole time.
At the end it tells a story about how live cod was transported along with the catfish to keep the cod active and guarantee the quality of the fish.
He uses the metaphor to describe Angela, saying that there are always “catfish” in our lives that keep us alert, active, and alert.
Schulman later turned the documentary into the TV show ‘Catfish’ where he helps others solve their online relationship mysteries.
Despite her positivity, Sarah was also the target of trolling, with people nicknaming her “catfish”.
“I’ve received a lot of negative comments online, but what I’m trying to do is show women that beauty has nothing to do with external appearance,” she says.
“The negative comments come from a place of self-hate and have nothing to do with me, so they don’t affect me at all.
“I would like people to know that true beauty is in your character and how you love others – everything else falls away.
“And for girls to ignore any bullying or hate, because it’s always a projection.”
