A woman with no front teeth has gone viral thanks to her impressive makeup transformations.
Sarah Andres shocked viewers after showing how she can transform her looks using carefully applied cosmetics, and clip-in veneers.
The 37-year-old lost her two front teeth in a quad bike accident back in 2017 and initially struggled with self-esteem issues.

But now the makeup fanatic uses her platform online to show beauty is within and to help others embrace their insecurities.
“Losing my teeth initially did affect my self-esteem, however in the long run it’s helped me gain self-esteem and love myself more regardless,” Sarah, who lives in Red Deer, Alberta, Canada, told What’s The Jam.
“I started using the clip in veneers in 2021 and they have changed my life.
“I’m so much more confident with them and they make me feel good about myself.
“I do hope to get mine permanently fixed when I’m financially able to.”
Despite spending two hours on her elaborate makeup transformations, Sarah says she doesn’t typically wear much day-to-day.
She said: “I wear very little makeup during my daily life but I do wear my veneers every day.
“I wear my glam looks for date nights with my boyfriend or filming.
“Other than that, I’m pretty much natural.”
In a recent post, Sarah filmed herself before applying any makeup and without her veneers, before showing herself fully made up with pink eyeshadow, long blonde tresses, and her trusty clip-in teeth.
Though some users pointed out the apparent use of an old age filter in the ‘before’ clip, she was widely praised for the stunning look.
One person commented: “Please share the secrets and what teeth are you using.”
“She’s an icon,” said another fan.
Someone else added: “Aww dam wish I could do my makeup that good.”
“Stunning,” another user agreed.
Another viewer added: “Woah! Those are skills!!”
Despite the positivity, Sarah has also been subject to trolling, with people dubbing her a “catfish”.
She said: “I have received so many negative comments online, but what I’m trying to do is show women that beauty has nothing to do with outward appearances.
“The negative comments come from a place of self-hate and have nothing to do with me, so they don’t affect me at all.
“I would like people to know that true beauty lies in your character and how you love others – everything else fades.
“And for young girls to tune out any bullying or hate, because it’s always a projection.”
