Synopsis

If you've ever watched a makeup video on YouTube, you know Beauty by Breauna. Bre’s success allows her to live lavishly, and she’s more than happy to take her boyfriend and her now-sober older sister, Seren, along for the ride. When Seren's childhood friend is released from prison, Bre opens her mansion doors to the additional houseguest, but the line of who-deserves-what is less obvious than she had thought.

Synopsis

Eleanor is gay, she says. Alma isn’t, she says. And Maria, Alma’s recently divorced mother, is crashing at their apartment. Alma’s boyfriend asks the wrong questions about Eleanor’s stripping career; Maria asks the rights ones. And since Alma has already heard all of Eleanor’s theories on love and sexuality, it’s nice to have a new set of ears.
