FAQ || General

"Nerd Makeup" is the result of fusing fandom and nerdery with the love of cosmetics. The Nerd Misfits firmly believe that hours of raiding is serious business, tabletop campaigns are the best vacations, and comic books are therapeutic handbooks to life. Being a grownup is overrated, but y'know what? Wake up every day and take what is yours with glitter, colors of the rainbow, and awesomeness!

Until then, we are Leaping Kitty certified.
