“Laney was more than just a great friend to me. She was both my sister and my soulmate. She was an honest, compassionate, creative, and lovely person. We communicated without speaking a single word.”

Laney Chantal’s death
Laney Chantal died as a result of an unintentional drug overdose, according to her relatives. Chantal was candid with her followers about being diagnosed with BPD and battling addiction, in addition to other mental health issues. Laney started a GoFundMe campaign in 2019 to raise money for a sober living facility. However, the GoFundMe campaign only raised $1,661 of its $4,000 target. She said,
“I see that my life has become unmanageable, and even with the assistance of my outpatient treatment, I still feel like I need further assistance.”
Following her death, her family established a memorial fund in her honor, with all proceeds going to The Brain and Behavior Research Foundation, a non-profit that supports mental health research in an attempt to alleviate the suffering caused by mental illness.
Laney Chantal featured in the fifth season of Face Off, a cosmetics competition.
Laney was born on February 20, 1989, as Alaina Chantal Parkhurst. Chantal grew up in Manitou Beach and became interested in music and skating.

Chantal began creating special effects, make-up styles, and animals for cinema and music videos. She designed scary masks for several metal performers, as well as makeup for Shia LaBeouf and Evan Rachael Wood.
Chantal has worked with musicians such as Lil Nas X and The Smashing Pumpkins. She also featured in the fifth season of the cosmetics competition Face Off, where she made it to the finals but opted to leave since she was no longer having fun. When asked about her departure, she said,
“I felt like I’d completed what I’d come there to do.” In this program, I produced my favorite makeup looks I’ve ever done. As a major fan of the program, I had no idea I’d be competing against the veterans.”
Laney Chantal married Twiggy Ramirez in July 2014. They eventually divorced, and she was connected to Violent J, who appeared regularly in her Instagram photos. It was never verified whether Laney and Violent were dating.
