Japanese Pop-Culture Does it Again
Anime Cosmetics, or cosmetics such as pupil-augmenting contact-lenses that make wearers appear to have larger eyes and more closely resemble people the way Japanese manga depicts them.
Please observe these before and after photos:
Whoa! And that's with the physically narrower Asian eyes. Just imagine how this would make eyes look like on Americans! Can you say: WTF?
There's other things too, like regular make-up that has exaggerated coloring, or tastes like sugary food items. I swear if this takes off in the states, it will be either very neat, or very scarry. I have a feeling the later assessment is more probable than the first.

I really don't know wether I should be amused or terrified of this.
But...what do you mean by 'how would they look like on an American'?
You mean white people, right?
I thought Amerians were multi-racial....
Jussayin' ;)
