Unfortunately, all the photo Apps make it difficult to know what to believe anymore. Don't think we can rely on "seeing is believing" anymore. IMO there's something more than just makeup going on here.

ETA: I don't want to wear that much makeup either. I prefer a more natural look.

I follow this gal and another that does terrific makeovers on line. We women certainly don't have to be unattractive. A little makeup does wonders.

Upneeq lasts about 8 hours.

Regarding the lifted eyelid there is a drop called upneeq that temporarily lifts your lid. I have developed a droopy lid on only one eye and am using it while I contemplate a permanent procedure. It works well.

@ID2  That's the point.   A "little" makeup was not used in that makeover. 

A lot of everything was used....

makeup

lighting

filters

And Lord knows what else.

Contours Eyelid Tape works fairly well if you can get them on straight and even on both eyes.

Now they should do another "after" to see what that women would look like if she applied the makeup herself instead of a professional make-up artist.

The question for me is ...how did they give her larger eyes. I know what you said about raising the crease, but that would have not helped her with larger eyes.

Do tell.

My post comments (on her eyes) were about shadow techniques that anyone can use if they would like to create the illusion of a different eye contour.  The two pictures in the opening post are screenshots from a 36 second you tube video, I have posted a few more screenshots.

My impression is that as the woman reacts and emotes upon the reveal of her makeover the natural movement of her face changes the dynamics of the still shots posted, at times giving the illusion of larger eyes. Curling her lashes, using thin eyeliner, concealing dark shadows and brow shaping are helping too. 

I have no idea what tools and tricks may have been used in her make over.

I do not see a difference in this woman receiving a full-glam professional make-over and say, any Hollywood starlet having the same thing done for a red carpet event. 

Do we ask, "Can she recreate this look herself?"  I know they often look like this woman's "before" when caught running into a store. 

I think she looks great and I'm sure the lady enjoyed her once-in-a-lifetime beauty experience.
