21-year-old Nils Verberne, also known as Lithunium Snow, is an exceptional makeup artist and model who describes himself as a “weird kid from the Netherlands doing his best with makeup and a camera.” And his “best” is totally working out for him as he has 579k followers on Instagram as well as 315k subscribers on his Youtube channel.
