BBD:
The term BBD stands for Beats By Doxa. BBD is a makeup academy that teaches on special effects and other types of makeup including normal everyday glam. But BBD focuses more on painting and shapeshifting into different creative characters with props and brushes.

BBD is ran by Gordons Doxa-Zoe who calls herself "The Female Aesthete" because she is such a lover of art and culture but has managed to blend it with beauty.
