'I cannot live without eating make-up.You can imagine it just coating your insides with whatever colour you're eating. It's just like craving your favourite candy bar.'Seeing all the colours made me want to taste it.'Once I tasted it, I just could not stop eating make-up.

. My hair is long so I like to use it to conceal the make-up I would like to bring. I keep myaddiction to make-up hidden because I'd rather not go through the hassle of explaining it to people. My mother doesn't know but if she knew, I'd never hear the end of it and it would go on for hours and hours every day.
'When I come into the store, I have to taste to make sure I bought the right ones,'I would just pour some on my hand, look around to make sure no-one's walking down the aisle and I would just lick it.

Diagnosed with heart trouble at the age of 12, possibly because of her unusual habit, Brittoni says she tries not to think about potential adverse effects.

'I try not to think about the impact the make-up is having on my heart,' she explains. 'I see the chemicals in the make-up and I don't know what they are.
'It really scares me: are they making my heart worse? Are they not affecting me at all? I don't know.'

Brittoni's relationship with boyfriend Josh has also been put under strain by her passion for paint.

'One day I saw her doing it and she tasted it, then I just saw her eat a whole scoop of the thing and I couldn't believe it,When she eats make-up, it looks like a clown went crazy. You know how you have a milk mustache? It looks like that to the tenth power - that's how her face looks. I've kissed her before and I've tasted make-up - it's horrible.
