Lydia Dupra is an escort now turned cosmetics creator that has come up with a new company called Heaux Cosmetics. This “sex-proof” makeup line includes gels, powders, and pastes. The entire line is designed specifically for sex workers.
The collection of roughly 25 products includes lipstick, eyeliner and eye shadow with names such as “In the Will,” “Offshore Account” and “Dubai.” They're made to be smear-resistant to stay on during sex.
Lydia, who shares her experience working as an escort for the rich and powerful in her books “The Complete Guide to Escorting” and “My Heaux Memoir,” says that the power of her cosmetics doesn’t just impact the ladies, it can also ruin a man’s life as well. She has experienced that first hand and says that a sex workers' income can be affected by bad make-up.
The products don’t have a fragrance yet some of them are infused with Oxytocin (the so-called “love hormone”) and pheromones to relax clients and turn on those around them. The products range in price from $18 to $80, and now she has nearly a thousand online orders and hopes to open a Los Angeles store within the next year.
