Woman branded as ‘biggest catfish on the internet’ shares the shocking truth behind her transformations
A woman who openly describes herself as ‘one of the biggest catfishes on the internet’ has shared the secret to how she looks ‘Photoshopped in real life.’
Chloe Waters, from Canada, regularly shares her beauty tips and tricks with her followers on TikTok.
She candidly refers to herself as a ‘catfish’ due to the difference in her ‘before’ and ‘after’ looks.
In a post, which has so far garnered more than 6.6 million views, the influencer revealed her secret – using transparent tapes to lift her cheeks.
In the viral video, Chloe explained: ‘I am known as one of the biggest catfishes on the internet.
‘I like to use face tapes and makeup to alter my appearance – to look a little bit more youthful.
‘It’s almost like Photoshop in real life.’
The video then showed Chloe pulling her cheek skin taut before applying strips of tape to keep them lifted.

She then joined the two stretches of tape together with a piece of string that went behind her head.
But Chloe was not done there after also applying three further pieces of tape to help smooth out her wrinkles and gives a more lifted appearance to her cheeks.
She added: ‘I love face tape. A lot of people are skeptical of it, but it works.
‘Why wouldn’t it work? It’s literally pulling your face back.’
To give herself larger lips in pictures, Chloe also adopts a pout, pressing her tongue against her bottom lip to push it out.
Next, she adds a smaller piece of tape to the jaw area and lifts that area too.
To finish her ‘catfish’ transformation, Chloe applies makeup, showing that the face tape is indistinguishable against her skin and the strings remain hidden by her hair.
She concluded: ‘This is how I catfish!’

‘The tape will just stretch the skin out more though over time, just like how wrinkles are formed,’ another user said.
Someone else added: ‘Maybe when I have more wrinkles to hide. I feel that this would unnecessarily stretch out your skin and age you faster.’
But other users commented on her natural good looks.
One fan said: ‘You’re young and beautiful. You don’t need face tape.’
‘Like, it’s a difference, but not [a] catfish difference. You still look the same, just lifted. You’re beautiful,’ another user agreed.
Someone else added: ‘I need face tapes in my life.’
