Makeup might not heal wounds but it can help people live with them. And that's exactly what Armenia-born and Moscow-based beauty guru Goar Avetisyan specializes in. Avetisyan regularly gives makeovers to women suffering from cancer or severe skin conditions, and her work not only dramatically changes their appearance but boosts their confidence, too.
Looking at the before-and-after shots of her subjects, Avetisyan's 4.6 million-big Instagram following doesn't come as a surprise. Lashings of concealer, lip liner and clouds of hairspray - as well as brilliant contouring - and they all look excited about their new looks. Scroll down to check out the unbelievable transformations and upvote your favorites.

These are good because they increase self confidence, but bad for making people believe they have to wear makeup to look good. I dunno how to feel about this really
Nia Loves Art 6 years ago
She isn't telling them they need makeup to look beautiful, she is doing a special thing for them to help them feel more confident.

Every lady should have a "glamour Makeup and photo shoot" done at least once in her life. Remember in the 90's when we went to those shops (in the US) and had Glamour Shots? I did it and they made me look like Elisabeth Taylor (in her young yrs) *L* I still have them and they make me smile every time I see them. I was soooo Hollywood! Even if just for a day it was great! Now I have lasting memories of it like these ladies do. Nothing wrong with that!
