To her boyfriend, she has always been the girl with huge eyes and a doll-like face.
She says he’s convinced that all she wears are contact lenses. He thinks the rest is her real face. So she decided to show him in a video what the version he knows looks like and patiently began removing it layer by layer.
First came off the elongated nose, which turned out to be a carefully sculpted prosthetic. Then the slender chin. Beneath it appeared skin with a more golden tone, dark eyes, and black hair that had nothing to do with the blonde mane from the first scene.
She’s a makeup artist, and this is precisely her specialty: the farther the result is from her real face, the better the work. How many of the faces you see on screen are what they seem?
