This year at RuPaul’s DragCon LA the short video creating app, Tik Tok, sponsored the Main Stage and partnered with Morphe to giveaway three makeovers. A new winner was chosen every day and done on the main stage by a professional Morphe makeup artist.

All of the winners were very excited about their makeover, but Friday’s winner was particularly happy about winning and had such an amazing story about their journey to DragCon and what it meant to her.

On Friday, Dani won the first makeover. This was her first time at DragCon and also her first time wearing female presenting clothing, which she did because she felt like DragCon was the perfect place to do that and that she wouldn’t be judged.
Dani came to DragCon all the way from Dallas all by herself. She has been thinking about attending DragCon for years and this year a friend had encouraged her, so she did. She came with a look as well, serving Baby Spice realness!

I chatted with Dani after the makeover, check out the interview below:
Javay Frye: How did it feel winning the makeover?
Dani: It was really great winning the makeover. I had read about it before DragCon and immediately came to enter the contest when I walked in today.
JF: How does it feel being at DragCon for the first time?
D: Stepping in to DragCon felt great! This is my first time wearing women’s clothing outside and stepping out of the hotel I was a little nervous, but coming here I feel great, because no one thinks twice or looks at me in a different way.
JF: What do you love about DragCon?
D: I love the colors, the fashion and the makeup. I love seeing all the queens, they’re all just so beautiful!
