Another spectacular transformation was a woman who has severe burn scars across her face after she was left disfigured following a horrific accident at the age of 11.

The unnamed woman was left in tears of joy after undergoing her first ever makeover by Anar, who totally changed her appearance using his clever makeup tricks.

When posting the video, Anar captioned the transformation, ‘The hardest and the most touching work of my entire 18-years practice.

‘There was an accident when she was 11, therefore, she has never had a makeup.

‘The first time in the life I made her makeup and decided to close the mirror. Let’s make each other pleasant. I am very glad that I was able to make her so happy.’

Speaking fondly about women of all ages, Anar said: ‘There is no ugly women.’

‘Every single woman is a beautiful creature regardless her “imperfections”. In reality, if we neglect them and accept, we would have felt much happier,’ he said.

‘Everyone is unique. And this uniqueness can have minor defects.I think,no one should be shy because of them.’

While many accuse him of Photoshopping his images, Anar insists this is not true as he regularly posts videos of his work to prove it is a real makeup transformation.

Anar found himself working as a hairdresser shortly after attending medical school.

From there, he trained himself to ‘master’ makeup application, before travelling to Moscow where he took private lessons in both hair and makeup. he then participated in workshops and master classes in countries like Germany, Italy and Spain.

Once trained, he started to work with leading stars of Azerbaijan and has since made a name for himself in the industry.

Speaking to TODAY previously, his manager Konul Seyidova said Anar was inspired to do transformations after he did makeup for a friend in her 60s for a wedding.

‘He did her makeup and totally changed her,’ Konul said.

After finding success online, Anar was then inspired to start a new project with 12 women throughout 2017 – one for each month – where he showed pictures of their dramatic transformations.

Each one takes up to two hours and includes both make up and hair styling.
