Makeup artist Oksana Trunova has had a lot of clients asking for changes without having a particular look in mind. In fact, Oksana has had so many of these requests, she decided to team up with hairstylist Olga Tarasova and freestyle these makeovers.
Oksana has also been sharing before-and-after photos of these transformations on her Instagram account, and they've earned her quite the following; the style guru already has nearly 30,000 fans! Continue scrolling and check out these images yourself.

"I call this project 'Blind Makeovers' and I started it 5 years ago," Oksana told Bored Panda. "I came up with this concept after I worked in a beauty salon and saw women coming in and telling me to 'do something,' but not knowing what they wanted." The makeup artist then started observing women on the street, trying to imagine the things she would change in the passer-bys' appearance. This allowed Oksana to constantly keep brainstorming new ideas which she and Olga could later implement when someone uncertain would ask for their services again.
A typical 'blind' makeover consists of a haircut, hair coloring, makeup, and a photo. "Girls and women visit us from different corners of the country," Oksana said. "We talk, me and Olga always find out about their hobbies and other things that could give us an idea about their likes and dislikes when it comes to looks. Then, we cover the mirrors and start creating." The clients can only see themselves after the work is done.
I love this one because they kept her natural hair... that way she doesn’t have to upkeep the dyes!
wow! everyone looks at least 10 years fresher! absolutely well done!

Am I the only one who is getting sick of those "makeovers" that use Photoshop to make it look like the women magically got 10 years younger afterwards?
No i think we´re all sick of them
You do realize all you have to do is skip makeover posts and click on something else. Problem solved.
What envy is pouring out of you. Where do you see photoshop here?
in the neck lines (not all but some definitely) Not that I care about the photoshop... The part that bothers me is the oh you look better with makeup thing. I want to feel good about my looks regardless of makeup and I want my daughter too also and her daughters etc...

I like these because they are "realistic" makeovers and not contoured to death or with weird hairstyles that the women will never be able to keep up. However, that being said, most of these women look fine without the makeovers. I think people need to look however makes them comfortable. With or without makeup and hair done, they are beautiful!
what I like about this kind of makeover is that is not extreme - simply trying new hairstyle and adding some make up can make a huge difference, without having to undergo a plastic surgery.
Not to disagree but this is professional makeup and professional make up artists. Anyone will look good. The hair makeovers were great though.\
BP: "Love yourself." BP: "Natural undyed hair, embrace the grey." BP: "Natural beauty." Also BP: "Look what happens if you take women and throw tons of make-up and dye on them before judging them!"
