I Built a Tiny Animatronic Dragon to Make a Stranger Smile

30 Oct 2026 #essencecosmetics #essenceCosplay #MakeBeautyFUN
Can a little cosplay magic make a stranger smile in the streets of London?

I’m building a tiny animatronic dragon and creating an autumnal witch costume, using essence makeup to bring the final look together before heading to MCM London Comic Con as a cosplay judge.

I’m then taking my creation out into central London to see if I can make a complete stranger smile.

Thank you to essence for sponsoring this video!

People from all around the world go through rites of passage. Some are once-in-a-lifetime events, others happen regularly. These are the moments that form the chapters of our lives, when everything forward is different. In many Native American cultures, the most important rite of passage is a spiritual journey known as a Vision Quest. By listening to traditional Native American stories of Vision Quests, we can better understand history, living cultures, and our own journey in life.

Mythos & Logos are two ancient words that can be roughly translated as “Story & Meaning.”
