Ms Avetisyan said that while she received countless requests for make up transformations, she invited this particular woman to come in straight away after being touched by her story. 

She explained that her client had been struggling with severe acne 'eruptions' for two years and had tried a number of things to try and treat it. 

The passionate make up artist said that while she knew many would talk about how her client could treat her skin, she felt blessed to be able to help her feel 'beautiful and feminine' and happy, even if it was just a 'temporary' fix.

After: Ms Avetisyan shared the incredible video and before sharing the process, stressed that she was not promoting that acne was something that should be 'covered up and not treated'

Ms Avetisyan shared the incredible video and before revealing the process, stressed that she was not promoting that acne was something that should be 'covered up and not treated.'

This, she explained, was a way for women in a similar situation to learn to cover their acne for special occasions and feel comfortable and confident in public. 

Ms Avetisyan began by using a MAC primer to give a natural radiance and help prepare the oily skin base. 

She then used a pore minimiser by Benefit which leveled the surface to lay foundation and also helped to matte the skin and remove all shine.

The next steps included neutralising the redness using a green shade corrector (this can be any brand) and applying an Estee Lauder double wear foundation to 'help hide everything' without it looking too caked on. 

Ms Avetisyan recommended allowing the make up to dry for five to 10 minutes before applying a powder over the face to let it set and look 'perfect.'

The remaining steps of the transformation (including the eyes) can be seen in the video clip, which has been viewed more than 1.4 million times on her page.
