吸唇、蜡笔妆、火烧发梢……2015国外女性奇葩化妆术盘点

It's no surprise that many women are willing to go above and beyond when it comes to beauty.

为了美，女人们总会不惜一切代价，这也不足为奇。

But in some cases, going the extra mile in the beauty department can be risky business.

但有些时候，在美这个方面的过分追求可能是一件危险的事情。

A controversial video has recently emerged showing a woman curling her 'stubby' eyelashes using just a wooden stick and fire.

最近有这样一个备受争议的视频，视频中一位女性居然用小木棍和打火机来卷自己短粗的睫毛。

'This is a quick tutorial on how to curl hard to curl eyelashes such as mine - I have pretty stubby curl-resistant eye lashes and they usually droop,' YouTuber t0inky, said in her video.

优客“t0inky在视频里说道：“这是一个快速教程，教你如何把像我这样的睫毛变得又翘又长——我的睫毛很粗硬又容易塌。

'This method actually does work.'

“这个方法很管用。

The young beauty vlogger then proceeded to heat up a wooden rod with a lighter before placing it on her mascara-clad eyelashes to curl them.

然后这位年轻的美容视频博主先是用打火机加热一个木棍，然后把木棍放在自己已经刷了睫毛膏的睫毛上，开始卷起来。

'I would be really careful with this because it is wood and you will be using a lighter,' she said.

“我会非常小心，因为这是木头的，用打火机点了容易着。

'If you have clumpy eye lashes, the heat from the stick does take that away...this lasts all day long and before they wouldn't.'

“如果你的睫毛特别厚而且易塌，那么这个小木棍就可以把你的睫毛烫得翘起来……这种弯曲状态可以维持一整天。

And while the technique worked well for her, her method isn't the only extreme and somewhat dangerous trend that people have tried out in the name of beauty.

这个方法对她很适用，不过这还不是最极端、最危险的：人们为了美，什么招儿都能使出来。
