Real-Life Barbie Doll Valeria Lukyanova Shares Natural Looking Photos

By Selena Hill| Apr 17, 2014

Valeria Lukyanova, known as the "real-life Barbie doll," has decided to share more natural looking photos of herself without her dramatic makeup and enormous colored contact lenses. 

Earlier this week, the "Human Barbie" posted selfies on her Facebook page of her wearing little makeup and looking less plastic.

The photos show the Barbie wannabe looking more natural, but there is one shot where she is showing off her pencil-thin waist and admittedly enhanced breasts in a bikini.

In February, Lukyanova admitted that she starves herself to maintain her looks by abstaining from food and water and training herself to live off light and air in a practice known as "Breatharianism."

"In recent weeks I have not been hungry at all; I'm hoping it's the final stage before I can subsist on air and light alone," she said, according to the Daily Mail.

Breatharianism is a cult that believes that someone can exist on "cosmic micro-food" rather than food and possibly water, according to the International Business Times. However, the practice is criticized as pseudoscience and several practitioners have reportedly died of starvation. 

Lukyanova also recently made headlines after telling GQ that race mixing has led to the degeneration of beauty.

"A Russian marries an Armenian, they have a kid, a cute girl, but she has her dad's nose. She goes and files it down a little, and it's all good," she said in a recent interview.

"Ethnicities are mixing now, so there's degeneration, and it didn't used to be like that. Remember how many beautiful women there were in the 1950s and 1960s, without any surgery? And now, thanks to degeneration, we have this. I love the Nordic image myself. I have white skin; I am a Nordic type-perhaps a little Eastern Baltic, but closer to Nordic."
