At 30, Anna had never been on a date and had never felt beautiful due to a rare facial condition. Tired of hiding, she messaged makeup artist Alina Vorobyova, writing, “I’ve never felt beautiful… but I’d love to know what that feels like.”
Alina flew Anna to Moscow for a makeover. When Anna saw herself in the mirror, she smiled — truly — for the first time in years.
The video of her transformation went viral, raising enough money for reconstructive surgery. Now, Anna is studying to become a social worker, ready to help others feel seen and valued — just like she finally does.
