You Have to See How 1 Woman Took Spring Beauty to the Next Level

Mar 12 2016 - 5:00pm

When Spring rolls around, some of us take advantage of the warmer weather by lightening our strands [1] or busting out a new punchy lip color. However, if you're Imgur user knickknack1111 [2], you reap the garden's pansies and use them as a funky facial accessory.

Knickknack1111 shared the below image last night on Reddit [3], where her work was lauded by makeup fans and appreciators of art alike. "I spent the Summer pressing flowers from my grandma's garden," she explained. She then glued those pansies onto a model's skin. We're especially charmed by how the model's mane matches the posies [4].

If you feel inclined to re-create this yourself, try gently gluing petals onto your face using lash glue (we like Duo Eyelash Adhesive in Clear [5] ($9)). But consider purchasing fake flowers from your local craft store instead of digging them out of the dirt. Not only will you be able to reuse them for a future project, but you won't have to wait for your favorite bloom to be in season. Plus, you don't have to worry about looking like a buffet for honeybees!

I spent the summer pressing flowers. I wasn't sure where to put them so I glued them to someone's face. [6]
