Internet reeling after unbelievable makeup transformation

  • 06/08/2018

A Chinese woman has the internet shook after posting an unbelievable transformation, using makeup and new beauty prosthetics. 

Qi Huahua's makeup vlog was shared on the 9Gag Facebook page, with the caption 'How to get away with murder', where it's been viewed more than 1.8 million times. In the video, she applies tape to her cheeks and even affixes a prosthetic nose, as part of the new 'sculpture' makeup trend sweeping Southeast Asia.

At the end of the video, she was left completely unrecognisable. Viewers were left in shock, with one person observing: "This is why I have trust issues".

"Nowadays a date in the rain is a MUST," one person commented, garnering over 1500 likes.

"What kind of sorcery?" questions another.

"I can't even hide the smallest pimple on my face," laments one woman.

Huahua first uses moisturisers and primers to prep her face. She then creates all new features, using a series of coloured-contact lenses, foundation, eyebrow powder, eyeshadow, double eyelid tape and fake eyelashes.

It's becoming increasingly common for women to apply prosthetic features in Southeast Asian makeup vlogs, the Daily Mail reports. The makeup craze has been compared to cosplay, and means they're almost unrecognisable when they remove their makeup.
