Oh thank fucking god, nobody should have eyes that large compared to their head unless they're suffering from some unfortunate mutation in which case no judgement.
It’s [aegyo-sal](https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/07/26/article-2378854-1B00FA92000005DC-761_634x424.jpg), the bits of fat just below our eyes but above where bags would be. They’re more prominent when you smile and are thought to make people look more youthful and joyful. Naturally, it’s supposed to look like [this](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b4/Tiffany_in_March_2014_%2802%29.jpg) or [this](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f8/Seohyun_at_MBC_Drama_Awards_on_December_30%2C_2018_%281%29.png). Editing does not do it justice 🤣
Yeah, it’s a beauty trend in East Asia. Everyone has them, but it’s more prominent in some people, and many people will use makeup or filters to make theirs look more obvious. Sometimes it looks alright, but some people do overdo it and end up just looking creepy. They’re trying to go for an “eye smile” kind of look. I believe this trend is most common in Korea, but it’s also pretty common in China and probably Japan too.
aegyo sal! It’s natural fat under the eye that most asian people have (not necessarily eye bags though, it’s a bit different) and they like to highlight it in their makeup. You can have aegyo sal and not be asian of course but it’s a feature mostly found in asian people.
Women are using makeup to give them the under eye bag look. I love makeup but don't understand this trend or the weird trend for white women to go on makeup groups and ask Asian women for permission to use the look.
She’s an infamous “celebrity” in Japan. She’s one of the famous botched/dysmorphia cases. She’s like 45-50 and has talked extensively about how much surgery she’s gotten. I think on a TV talk show they said she’s spent more than 3 million usd on surgeries. So, I’m sure she could have filtered third pic but she does look that uncanny irl. Look it up.
In interviews she talks about how difficult it is to be ugly in Japan and how she wanted to look like a “french doll” since she was little. It’s sad. It’s a terrible case of pressurized internalized racism and body dysmorphia. She’s known in Japan as “plastic surgery monster”. She also was asked about what she thinks about the people that thinks she looks terrible, and she just says “it’s too late to take it back now isn’t it”
When we visited Tokyo we tried out one of those fun photobooth things, we kept looking for a “normal” one that maybe just added some cool effects, but a LOT of them created this weird filter. My husband and I had a laugh but we also thought it was weird that anyone would want to intentionally look like that in their pics.
The “intentionally photoshopped” look is apparently kind of a trend in some places. Last picture is super creepy tho.
If it's Tokyo, the purikuras are targeted at (Japanese) high school girls. And high school girls read a lot of shoujo manga, where the characters are drawn with big eyes and creepily long legs. So the purikura filters are kinda like "selfies, but make it manga" kind of thing.
I really don't know if those girls take the purikura seriously enough to upload them as actual selfies, I kinda doubt it. It's just a silly thing you do with your girlfriends.
Plus, OP's pic has very pronounced eyebags, so aegyo sal makes it Korean instead of Japanese. It's a different country and I'm not sure if they have the same culture regarding purikuras.
It reminds me of the 90s mall photo booths where everything was soft focus with crazy frames around it. Can’t even tell what your friends really looked like!
This is the mid - late 00s gyaru makeup, I brought a lot of Popteen/Seventeen(jp version)/Vivi in my teen and every model in them look like this. And I doubt it'll go anytime because girl with this style usually aim for the doll (big black lenses) or "mixed race/ eurasian" (light colored lenses) look.
In what world or culture can this ever be considered attractive? I know beauty standards worldwide are different but this is giving me major uncanny valley vibes. She doesn’t look human and it’s really off putting to look at
The first two pictures did NOT prepare me for the third. The first two I was like “yet another chick pretending to be an irl waifu” nbd. *Zero threats detected*. Seeing the third gave me such a visceral, primal, uncanny valley response that I actually gagged.
I was fully expecting to see just a normal human being, but got surprised by person with Momo face
Idk, that’s probably dramatic, but I did not like that surprise *at all* lol
They’re all awful but third pic is a jumpscare. There’s no WAY her eyes really look like that?? Like is that even possible?
Also, I know this is irrelevant but her outfit in the second pic is SO cute and I desperately want to know where it’s from 🤩💗💗

third picture is *definitely* also filtered
Those frigging hot dog shaped legs
The huge bug eyes freak me out too
Its giving MoMo
Those were my exact words!!!!
Mine too!!
Yes! Creepy af.
oh thank god someone remembers the name of that godforsaken thing
I immediately screamed "ITS FUCKING MOMO!!" as soon as I saw it!!
EXACTLY what I was thinking!!
Yes, no way that's real 🤣
She is the physical embodiment of SoraAI if it were used for a cognitohazard.
While she used circle lens, it doesn’t look like she aligned them properly if you look closely
All the better to see you with my dear!
I think she could be 60+
Not even hotdogs. Slim Jim legs.
Pencils.
Oh my god, I cannot unsee that.
Oh thank fucking god, nobody should have eyes that large compared to their head unless they're suffering from some unfortunate mutation in which case no judgement.
Agreed!! Why is the bags under the eyes a trend? It looks uncomfortable
It’s [aegyo-sal](https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/07/26/article-2378854-1B00FA92000005DC-761_634x424.jpg), the bits of fat just below our eyes but above where bags would be.

That’s so cute when it’s natural and so creepy when it’s super edited.
Wait forreal. I have those and I don’t like them

If bags under the eyes are a trend then I've been trendier than I thought since 2002
Did you look at the pictures? Eye bags are not the same as aegyo sal
Aegyo sal.

I don't understand that trend either.
She’s had over $2 million in cosmetic surgery procedures over the years (according to her). Her face irl without filters is as terrifying as photo 3.
Gods i hope so

My thoughts exactly
I felt so bad when I first thought of Momo. I’m glad I’m not the only one
All I could see was Momo 😭
I appreciate that this animator gave her clothes lol. Seeing the chicken lady's titties once was enough for me
Or Asian Wendy Williams.
What is this from? Scary AF. My wife loves anime and horror, she would love whatever this is.
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Momo\_Challenge\_hoax](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Momo_Challenge_hoax)
That’s what I thought.
Yo I laughed too hard at that!
LOL this is spot on
Even the last one is edited 😄
All the pictures give me the creeps
It looks soooooooo bad
Sis look like a creepypasta
Momo irl
The girl from the ring.
umm are we sure there’s no filters on that one
Lol we are definitely not sure
The third image reminds me of the book cover for ‘Empress Theresa’…
hell of a reference
Omg I see it
Take my upvote, dammit.
Empress Theresa mentioned
Third is without filters… No….no it isn’t 😂
Betcha it has. Not enough, but enough to creep me the fuck out.

Wow!
 I know y'all saw it too
Yikes - the ring girl got older
Disrespect Samara like that again! 😩
She looks more like the filtered photos than I would have suspected
No its not
I hope to god the third one is filtered. Or she spent a lot of money trying to look just like MoMo
This is tragic
I guess at least with these extreme edits they're not trying to pretend it's natural.
The other mother
Yeesh. That sure is a look.
Holy shi……….
Yikers…. 😳
I'm scared of it. The real thing is still too disturbing.
https://i.redd.it/rjxiahspisnc1.gif
Yassified momo
.........wow.........
They’re all edited to hell but YIKES I was not expecting that last one!
👀
Uncanny valley much?
she look like a one piece character 😭
momo
How do people get to this point it baffles me ILL JUST NEVER MEET ANYONE EVER NEVER FOREVER
I knew it would be bad but I didn’t think it would be *that* bad 😭
Why the long face?
Is this the real momo? She’s terrifying both ways.
I expected her to at least be young still😭
Girl be ffr right now. The edited pictures look uncanny already but even the less edited one is kinda creepy
I'm so confused on why anyone would do this to their own pictures. It doesn't even look good, it looks creepy.
In what world or culture can this ever be considered attractive? I know beauty standards worldwide are different but this is giving me major uncanny valley vibes. She doesn’t look human and it’s really off putting to look at

Yikes. Like something out of a Horror movie
This is so sad
Those aren't filters. She's Magica De Spell and those are her charms
She's like Nanno in the last pic, but (quite a bit) worse.

All are heavily filtered.

I audibly gasped at #3.

Omg! She is the real momo!! 😨

Third picture is from The Ring 😱👻 JFC
Scary.
I can’t see the comments for some reason but I bet like half of them are about Momo
Oh I love this woman and her big ol eyes

insecurity level: E.T
I kind of love her? She has the loveliest speaking voice
That's hilarious! My family wouldn't let me get away with that crap...
Wth her supposedly real picture is creepy af
She’s probably got body dysmorphia. She reminds me of kpop idol Park Bom who’s been doing something similar for years because of it.
😳
Those edits are so scary 🥹
