Influencer Valeria Radchenko decided to go far beyond makeup and underwent a radical cosmetic procedure to achieve permanent “cat-eye” eyeliner.
The before-and-after she shared on her social media generated millions of mixed reactions, ranging from admiration for the result to astonishment at the extent of the transformation she chose for her face.
The procedure, which permanently alters the appearance of the eyes, reopened the debate over the limits of cosmetic surgery and how far the pursuit of an ideal of beauty goes.
