Iranian teenager Sahar Tabar from Tehran hit headlines last year when she shared her bizarre selfies where she sported angular cheekbones, hollow cheeks and an extreme curving nose, and fans likened her to Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie. Now she has revealed what she really looks like without make-up.

Sahar claimed she had 50 surgeries and lost 40 kilos to get her distinctive look. While many fans doubted whether the looks were real or just the result of digital trickery. She later spoke out, admitting she'd had a nose job, lip fillers and liposuction but insisted most of her unusual appearance is down to make-up and editing.

Speaking to Russian media outlet Sputnik last year, Sahar admitted she'd had surgery but denied it was 50 procedures or that her intention was to look like the Hollywood star. She said, "I did not even think about being like Jolie. Also, I did not want to resemble the cartoon character the Corpse Bride."

She posted two-fresh faced snaps showing her looking dramatically different without her signature make-up. In one snap she long dark hair, brown eyes and much smaller lips, while in her zombie Angelina snaps she wears blue contact lenses, has a pointed nose and extremely sunken cheeks.

She also said in an interview, "This is Photoshop and makeup. Every time I publish a photo, Ii paint my face in an increasingly funny way. It is a way of expressing yourself, a kind of art. My fans know that this is not my real face." She explained that her look was like an 'art' project and a form of self-expression.
