Woman Goes Viral for Spending 4 Years Removing 30 Tattoos. She Was Shocked at the Results: 'I Feel Free' (Exclusive)
"I truly felt like I was walking around with scars — mainly on my arms, which were hard to hide unless I wore long sleeves," Kayla Stewart tells PEOPLENEED TO KNOW Kayla Stewart went viral in July when she posted a TikTok of her body after spending four years getting 30 tattoos removed from her arms The Californian shared a glimpse of her arms before the process in a separate video She tells PEOPLE that taking the steps to remove them was part of her "healing" that ultimately helped her "reclaim my body and my sense of self"Sometimes to start over, you need to start with a clean slate, and that's what Kayla Stewart has done. The 28-year-old Californian went viral in July when she posted a TikTok of her body after spending four years getting 30 tattoos removed from her arms. The removal process for Stewart began in May 2021, just a few months after she had added 22 new tattoos to the 11 she had already gotten over time. Stewart tells PEOPLE that she got the new tattoos during COVID, a period where she began spending time with a guy she met in Venice, who was a line artist and wanted to get into tattooing. "He was also in recovery from addiction — but not long after we met, he relapsed. I didn't really know how to navigate that situation. I just wanted to help, but I didn't have any experience with addiction, and I'd never been around it before," says Stewart. Reflecting on the situation now, Stewart tells PEOPLE that she can see how "vulnerable" she was and how easily she was "taken advantage of" because of it. "He'd do anything to practice, and I became the person he practiced on," she says, noting that "it's hard to describe the mental and physical toll that took." The PEOPLE Puzzler crossword is here! How quickly can you solve it? Play now! The tattoos for Stewart became like "trauma I was carrying on my body," and taking the steps to remove them was part of her "healing" that ultimately helped her "reclaim my body and my sense of self." "Emotionally, I feel free and liberated now that they're gone. I truly felt like I was walking around with scars — mainly on my arms, which were hard to hide unless I wore long sleeves. And I did — almost every day — for my own sanity and to protect them from the sun," she says. Stewart tells PEOPLE that the week after each tattoo removal session "was the most brutal," and recommends those who find themselves in a similar situation to eat a healthy diet, exercise and cut back on alcohol, as the lymphatic system plays a crucial role in tattoo removal by clearing ink particles from the body. "Blown away" by her results, Stewart says that she will "absolutely never" get tattoos again. Following her experience, Stewart underwent eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy, commonly known as EMDR, with one of her targets being the sound of a tattoo gun. "I definitely had an aversion to tattoos in general for about two years. But thanks to the therapy I've been fortunate to do, I can now appreciate and love them — for other people, just not for me," she says. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. As for how people reacted to her tattoo removal, she says, "Everyone's been incredibly supportive and understanding," and that it is nice to see that her results have given other people "hope."

TikTok pulls video of Huda Kattan after beauty mogul spreads anti-Israel conspiracy theories
Fighting disinformation The Middle East TikTok Israel-Hamas warFacebookTweetLink Follow TikTok this week removed an inflammatory anti-Israel video posted by celebrity beauty mogul and influencer Huda Kattan. Kattan, the founder and face of the billion-dollar brand Huda Beauty, shared a video to her more than 11 million followers on TikTok, accusing Israel of orchestrating World War I, World War II, the September 11 terrorist attacks and Hamas' attack on Israel on October 7. World War I (1914-1918) and World War II (1939-1945) both occurred before the State of Israel was established in 1948. 'All of the conspiracy theories coming out and a lot of evidence behind them — that Israel has been behind World War I, World War II, September 11, October 7 — they allowed all of this stuff to happen. Is this crazy?' Kattan said on camera in her since-removed TikTok post, which included other unfounded claims about Israel. 'Like, I had a feeling — I was like, 'Are they behind every world war?' Yes.' A representative for TikTok confirmed to CNN that it removed Kattan's video for violating its community guidelines. 'In a global community, it is natural for people to have different opinions, but we seek to operate on a shared set of facts and reality,' TikTok's community guidelines state. 'We do not allow misinformation that may cause significant harm to individuals or society, regardless of intent.' Kattan's agency did not respond to CNN's request for comment. A manager listed on public databases as a representative for Kattan was contacted by CNN and said in an email that they no longer represent her. Kattan's video has spurred calls across social media and among Jewish groups for retailers like Sephora to cut ties with her popular beauty brand, Huda Beauty, which was valued at $1.2 billion in 2017 and brings in roughly $200 million in annual sales, according to Forbes. A representative for Sephora has not responded to CNN's request for comment. This is not the first time the beauty influencer has faced calls for boycotts due to her public commentary after October 7. Kattan, whose company has over 57 million followers on Instagram, has been an outspoken critic of Israel and a staunch supporter of Palestinians in Gaza. Within a week of Hamas attacking Israel on October 7, 2023, an Israeli Instagram user threatened to boycott her products, to which Kattan replied: 'I don't want blood money.' In response to that comment, a petition was launched and received over 30,000 signatures, calling on Sephora to remove Huda Beauty products from its stores. Kattan's most recent TikTok video drew swift backlash from Jewish groups. 'Huda Kattan built a brand around beauty — but these antisemitic conspiracy theories are nothing short of ugly hate,' said Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation League. 'Spreading vile myths about Jews to millions of followers isn't just reckless — it's dangerous.' The American Jewish Committee posted Kattan's since-removed TikTok video on social media, writing, 'Huda Kattan, founder of Huda Beauty, is using her massive platform to spread vile antisemitic conspiracy theories — accusing Jews of harvesting the organs of Palestinians, causing 9/11, and running global pedophile rings. This isn't 'criticism of Israel.' It's centuries-old hate, repackaged and broadcast to millions.' 'Retailers have a choice,' said Ari Hoffnung, managing director of the Jewish nonprofit, JLens. 'They can continue to platform a brand whose founder promotes hate-fueled conspiracy theories, or they can take a stand against antisemitism.' Forbes included Kattan on their 2023 list of America's Richest Self-Made Women and on their list of Most Powerful Women in Business in 2024.

24 Whimsical Products That Put The Fun In Functional
An acoustic frog speaker to amplify the audio from your phone and make all your music and calls a... ribbit louder. This little leaper is hand-crafted out of clay (no electricity required!) by an independent artist, and has a megaphone mouth that directs and helps enhance sound waves, which reviewers say truly makes their speaker sound much clearer. Yay science! A set of mushroom glass vases that'll help you live out your fairy garden dreams — even in a tiny apartment, miles away from the nearest enchanted forest. They're made of hand-blown glass with a thin opening at the top, just wide enough for a few charming flowers and trimmings. Now you can buy your favorite kind of bouquet and split it between the vases to let every little flower shine. A pair of retro-style smiley face slippers to bring back some much-needed joy into your life after waking up to your 6 a.m. alarm. Reviewers say the memory foam cushion is plush and ultra-comfy, and that the hard soles are durable enough to step outside — so they'll be gladly greeting your neighbors every time you take out the trash. A TonyMoly Jelly Lip Melt in a Jell-O mold-inspired container that's straight out of a '50s dinner scene (sans veggies or shrimp). This K-beauty lip treatment isn't just *super* cute, but is also filled with ingredients like berry extract and vitamin E for some ultra-soothing, long-lasting hydration that reviewers say rivals the iconic Laneige lip mask (double the price, BTW). It's also got a yummy fruity smell (and flavor!) and a glossy formula, so your lips will be feelin' the love. A handheld duck vacuum because picking up the stray crumbs in your car or the elusive hairs from inside your drawer could benefit from a few more silly points. It's light as a feather, but still has a strong suction that's perfect for smaller pickups — especially in those hard-to-reach places. And, reviewers say the cute, small-hands-friendly design makes even their kids feel a little more excited about cleaning! Disclaimer: googly eyes not included but highly encouraged for max whimsy. A vintage wall sconce that'll add a subtle pop of fun to your walls and a pretty, glowing ~ambience~ to your home. As someone who loves a lamp, a soft night-light is perfect for winding down in the evenings or guiding you on your midnight path without the jump scare of overhead lights. These are so, so easy to set up (i.e., electrician free) and the battery-operated style comes with a remote control and dimmable bulb! (Though, imagine the plug-in version with a stained-glass bulb? Stuh-nning). A mini passionfruit dish to bring a bit of tropical lounging-by-the-beach energy into your home all year long. These hand-crafted ceramic dishes are the perfect size to hold your spoons mid-recipe or your favorite rings, or it can even be a cheery spot to place your keys when you come home from the cloudiest of days. They're also food safe, so you can technically eat passionfruit... on your passionfruit (fruitception). Vacation Classic Whip SPF 30 with a beloved dessert-like consistency reviewers genuinely look forward to reapplying (and that's saying something). It's ultra-light, whipped texture blends and absorbs into the skin like a dream *without* that greasy feeling or white cast. It's also chock-full of hydrating ingredients like coconut oil, aloe vera, and ~banana extract~ that'll give you that gorgeous summer glow. Is there a sweeter way to top off your daily routine? A small sardine-themed bag to carry your everyday essentials while loudly (and proudly) telling the world you're on the tinned-fish train. The vibrant colors, embroidered details, and pop-up tab are a fun way to help you stay organized, and even as someone who is staunchly anti-sardine, I think it's incredibly cute. A Mjolnir meat tenderizer that'll transform you into the cooking hero you've always been — if you can lift the dang thing. The stainless-steel mallet, pyramid teeth, and sturdy handle make it the perfect weapon to wield against the villainous muscle fibers threatening your meal. And though it can't be shrunk or hidden like the real deal, it'll add a ~marvelous~ touch to your kitchen decor. A croc-shaped food chopper whose sharp, mighty jaw can *chomp* through just about any fruit or veggie you throw at it. Reviewers love how seamless it makes prepping a salad — you don't even need a bowl, just mix and eat straight out of the tray! It's an easy, low-effort way to get your greens in for the day, and would be especially helpful to speed up weekly meal prepping so it doesn't take up your entire Sunday. A retro CD mirror to reflect who you truly are inside: a music lover who yearns for the simpler days of carefully curating mixtapes and burning CDs (Millennials, I see you). This mirror is made of a lightweight acrylic and comes with adhesive strips for hassle-free installation. It'll make for some *super* cool mirror selfies — just be prepared for everyone to swipe up asking, "Where did you get that??" A banana pudding candle if you've always wanted your home to smell like summer picnics and pure, unadulterated joy. These handmade soy creations are scented with the seller's custom blend of sweet, creamy, and fruity aromas that make up what is probably the second-best banana dessert ever (first being Chunky Monkey ice cream, of course). Each is topped with hyper-realistic wax banana pieces, whip, wafers, and crumbles, and reviewers say that the smell is strong and delish without being overwhelming! A set of dachshund-shaped paperclips that'll add a little bit of fun to your stacks of documents when work starts feeling a little *too* mysterious and important. They come in a sturdy tin and reviewers say they firmly hold pages together — just be sure to attach them the right way, lest you find "Incorrect Use of Paperclips" as a contention on your performance review. A daisy-shaped dish brush so you can romanticize scrubbing off the crust from last night's dinner. This charming scrubber may be cute, but it's also got a durable design, comfy-to-hold handle, *and* a hidden scraper that's perfect for those tough spots you don't have the patience to soak. And when your flower starts getting a little mucky, just toss 'er in the dishwasher! A bouquet of Venus flytrap bag clips that may not catch the pests buzzing around your home, but will keep your snacks stale-free, which is equally (if not more) useful. This 3D-printed houseplant has detachable leaf-blades (the part that catches flies, which I just learned!) that can clamp around thinner bags — and when they're not being used, makes for *super* unique decor on your kitchen counter! An artsy elevated pet bed so your fur baby can get in on that whimsical fun. The wavy leg design and sunny-side-up canvas aren't just perfectly playful, but also sturdy and durable to hold them up while they lounge. The elevated design also helps with airflow to keep them cool, and reviewers say their pets prefer it to their soft beds! Could it be... a bed they'll actually use?? Or a raised mushroom pet bowl they'll probably have *no* clue is as cute as they come, but will still appreciate when they won't need to hunch down for their food anymore (win-win). The shallow design is especially comfortable for cats because it helps reduce whisker-fatigue, so they won't need to paw their food out of the bowl anymore. And the adorable fungi are made of a thick ceramic that can't easily be knocked over! A vampire umbrella which may look like a regular ol' parasol, but when the Count spreads open his cloak, it releases a flock of flying bats! It's the perfectly subtle way to add a bit of fun to a dreary day or some much-needed protection if, much like a vampire, you'd rather avoid the sun. And, when it's not being used, Spookula hangs from a coat rack snoozing like a bat until the next adventure. A pack of climber-shaped hooks that'll scale the wall while dutifully carrying your coats, bags, and umbrella. This strong trio can hold up to five pounds each and comes with a helpful guide to make installation a breeze. Reviewers love them in their kids' room to help them stay organized, or even in their office for a unique way to spruce up their space. An animal-shaped glasses holder so you have an incentive to actually put yours away before bed — not fall asleep with them on, just to wake up the next morning blearily searching between your sheets and pillows (...me). These helpful critters are made of hand-carved wood and are perfect for keeping your glasses safe or holding your shades when you're not using them. And they do it all while looking *very* scholarly, if I do say so myself. A mini bookshelf stress toy for a way to help relieve anxiety if your normal response is reorganizing your room in a cleaning frenzy. Instead, you can give this model a rigorous shake to make all the books fly out of their shelves, then open it up and spend some time putting it all back together. Reviewers say the methodical rearranging is *super* therapeutic and truly helps them relax. A pack of limited-edition floral Band-Aids so you can bring a bit of comforting cheer to even the gnarliest of paper cuts. The pack has three size options, each with a different wildflower design, and reviewers say they're just as durable and sticky as the OG, but cuter! A set of rainbow bath bombs that make a gorgeous swirling design in your water and have coconut and sunflower oil to soothe and hydrate your skin. With plant-based fragrances and a light fruity scent, reviewers love these for sensitive skin, and say they're particularly helpful for stopping their kids from fighting tooth and nail to avoid a bath.
