TikTok influencer Valeria Voronina wows with incredible makeup transformation, but is it real?
Ukraine - A Ukrainian beauty influencer uses TikTok and Instagram to show just how different she can look with the right makeup on, and the results are unbelievable.
It's hard to process that these two faces could belong to the same woman.
20-year-old Valeria Voronina amazed her followers with multiple chameleon-like transformations, sending her crazy viral.
In her clips, the influencer and actor showed how, with the right hairstyle changes and lots of makeup, she can transform into a cartoonish doll or an air-brushed supermodel.
Arguably, Valeria Voronina's most impressive makeup transformation came in a recent TikTok video that has amassed more than 31.3 million views and 4.6 million likes (as of writing).
In it, she is first seen seemingly unkempt with frizzy hair, yellow teeth, and huge glasses. With the help of TikTok's scene-splicing magic, she's suddenly displayed as a styled beauty with perfect makeup, a full head of curls, and a seductive smile on her lips.
She doesn't show exactly how she pulled off the magic trick, there's no makeup tutorial here, so viewers are supposed to trust that it's really the same person in both clips. Is such an extreme makeup transformation really possible?
Some TikTok users doubt the legitimacy of Valeria Voronina's makeup transformation
While many viewers were simply amazed by the videos, some don't quite believe that it's actually the same person every time.
A comment under one of Valeria's clips, itself with more than 114,000 likes at the time of writing, simply reads "No, I don't believe it".
Other users even offer specific examples of why the women in the clips must be different people, writing, "Just compare the noses," or "Look at the position and shape of the teeth."
Her supporters respond that she uses nose contouring techniques, just as many models do, and knows how to expertly highlight her features for the transitions.
Valeria has even posted a video of herself "changing" her makeup step-by-step. The problem, though, is that even Valeria Voronina's makeup tutorial features several cuts that don't convince doubters.
Either way, the 20-year-old can be happy with the attention her talent has drawn. After all, she only had 20,000 TikTok followers at the beginning of March and now has more than 700,000!
