Using the latest make-up gadgets and techniques, a woman in China has taken to the internet to show off her transformation skills.
In a now viral video, the woman, identified as Qi Huahua, was seen applying tape to her cheeks and a prosthetic nose to make her features more prominent as the newest "sculpture" make-up trend sweeps parts of east Asia.
At the end of the video, she was left completely unrecognisable, reports Daily Mail.
Net users were in disbelief, with one saying "this is why I have trust issues".
The video was first released on Chinese video platform YouKu and was reposted on 9Gag's Facebook page, where it had gathered more than 837,000 views in an hour.
In the clip, the woman was first seen applying several different kinds of lotions and creams to moisturise and prime her face.
Then, after putting on coloured-contact lenses, foundation, eyebrow powder, eyeshadow, double eyelid tape and fake eyelashes, she began the process of "creating" new features.
She placed two pieces of tape on both sides of her jaw for a slimmer face, followed by a fake nose for a more defined bridge.
She even covered her neck, arms and shoulders with a white cream, leaving her a few shades lighter, a feature that's highly preferred in Asia.
The video then proceeds to her taking off her make-up, confirming that it had been the same person all along before she ends the video with a sheepish grin.
"Nowadays, date in rain is [a] MUST," user Sandro said, and 1,600 people agreed with him.
"To all the men, I advise you all to take your new lady on a date to the swimming pool. If she says she can't swim then 'accidentally' splash water in her face. If her nose, eyelashes and other facial parts fall off then run," user Jennifer Stopar-Jovanovic commented.
"I can't even cover a pimple on my face. [What kind of] sorcery is this?" Ranjitha Ganesh said.
"How are they 2 different people but also the same person?!" A shocked user named Chrissy Sorenson said.
Women across China have recently been sharing their incredible transformations in a series of revealing video clips on various social media platforms.
In incredible transformations, the women are seen shedding fake lashes, contact lenses and even prosthetic noses in a new "sculpture" make-up trend sweeping parts of Asia.
Not satisfied with simply highlighting their cheekbones, the craze, which has been likened to Cosplay, sees the bloggers look unrecognisable when they've finished taking off their makeup.
