A teenager who beautifully lights up the stage.
This is Vitória Buono Boche (nicknamed Vih). She’s a talented ballerina enrolled at the Academia Ândrea Falsarella, which is located in Santa Rita do Sapucaí. Although Vih doesn’t have arms, it’s not something that stops her from pursuing her passion for dance.

Besides sharing dancing videos, Vih also posted ones of her putting on makeup.
Although this may seem like an impossible task without arms, the teen shows how she’s overcome the hurdle! She uses her feet to apply her makeup and manages to do so very skillfully.
The videos are divided into three parts. In the first one, she’s fresh-faced and begins the process of putting on her makeup, which involves clutching the tools with her toes and using flexibility.

By the end of the third video, Vih looks stage-ready with a glowing face of makeup. Amazing, right?
