A Homeless Woman Gets a Full Makeover, and the Result Is Truly Remarkable

Acts of selflessness and the generosity of strangers are more common than we might think. Across the globe, there are individuals who consistently go the extra mile to bring about positive changes in the lives of others. With the prevalence of social networks, heartwarming stories consistently emerge, underscoring the deep influence of kindness and compassion. A particularly uplifting narrative took place in Türkiye, where an unexpected meeting between a struggling woman named Rita and a compassionate individual named Shafag Novruz turned into a powerful lesson in humanity.

Shafag Novruz’s encounter with Rita

Shafag Novruz, a young professional stylist specializing in makeup, styling, and bridal hairstyling, encountered Rita, a homeless woman residing on the streets. Moved by Rita’s visibly neglected appearance, Shafag felt a strong urge to leverage her skills and resources to not only enhance Rita’s outer beauty but also to restore her sense of dignity. Unbeknownst to Rita, this chance meeting would set in motion a remarkable transformation, ultimately altering the course of her life.

Rita’s life story

For years, Rita had been grappling with the harsh realities of homelessness, finding solace only in the memories of her late son. Living on the streets, her survival hinged on collecting bottles and bags. Despite harboring the dream of securing employment, Rita carried the burden of societal judgment, primarily stemming from her appearance. Touched by Rita’s narrative, Shafag took it upon herself to tackle the challenge of a transformative makeover, aiming to not only enhance Rita’s image but also facilitate her reintegration into society.

The profound makeover endeavor

Shafag Novruz’s dedication to Rita’s transformation exceeded all expectations. The makeover kicked off with a visit to the dentist, where Shafag personally covered the expenses of tooth surgery to bestow upon Rita the radiant smile she deserved. The subsequent transformation involved meticulous manicures and pedicures, adding to the comprehensive makeover experience.

Later, it was followed by hair care. Rita’s short and damaged hair was straightened, colored blonde, and extended with hair extensions, giving her a vibrant and feminine look. The use of cosmetic products, beauty treatments, waxing, false eyelashes, and expert makeup applications worked wonders. In Shafag’s Instagram post, she thanked the team who made the transformation possible.

The impact and future hopes

The before-and-after images vividly present a woman transformed to the point of being almost unrecognizable, emanating confidence and beauty. Some might even argue that Rita appears significantly younger. Adorned in an opulent black dress, Rita exudes a star-like presence, masking the reality that she was once a homeless individual grappling to survive on the streets.

Comments on Shafag’s post underscored the impactful nature of this transformation. One commenter specifically noted the beauty of Rita’s eyes, while others extended congratulations to Shafag for her remarkable work. The commentary reflected an acknowledgment of the profound effect of the makeover and an appreciation for Shafag’s skill and efforts.

The extraordinary transformation not only amazed internet users but also had a profound impact on Rita’s self-esteem. Filled with gratitude, she expressed feeling more beautiful and confident than ever before. With renewed confidence, Rita is now eager to take on the world. She hopes that her transformed appearance will open doors to employment opportunities, thanks to the incredible generosity of her benefactress, Shafag Novruz.

Shafag Novruz’s altruistic gesture stands as a poignant reminder that compassion and generosity have the potential to ignite positive transformations in the lives of those encountering challenges. Rita’s evolution from homelessness to newfound confidence exemplifies the profound impact a single individual can make on another. Meanwhile, another stylist gave an incredible transformation to a bride with acne.

Masterchef contestant was immediately removed from show after dish she served judges

Warning: This article contains images of a dead animal some readers may find distressing.

Masterchef contestant was immediately removed from the show after serving up the judges a questionable dish that had them spitting feathers – literally.

Oh, Masterchef.

There’s nothing better than watching over confident contestants talk themselves up on the VT – only to have them produce an absolute abomination of the dish that the judges’ waste no time in ripping into.

We all like to sit on our sofas, Goggleboxing and declaring that we could do better.

Although this time, most of us probably could because anything would be better than what one contestant served up on Masterchef Espãna.

Sometimes when you’re cooking, not every job is pleasant, and if you want to serve up something that looks delicious and inviting, sometimes you have to get a little bit dirty.

And that’s something this contestant had no plans of doing.

In 2020, Saray Carrillo, 27, was mortified by one of the challenges where she had to pluck and cook a whole partridge.

Unless you’re vegan or vegetarian, cutting up poultry is pretty standard cooking practice, but Carrillo apparently expressed her fear of having to do such a task and took the challenge as a personal attack.

Defiantly, she decided to serve the bird, unplucked, uncooked and unappetising, garnished on a bed of spring onions, some kind of sauce and garnished with a couple of cherry tomatoes.

Take a look:

Umm, yeah. (Masterchef Espana / YouTube)

I think it’s hilarious, but the judges certainly didn’t think so – the only way to describe the look on their faces is ‘p*ssed’.

This was only exasperated more when Carrillo approached the bench with a cheeky smirk on her face, whilst the rest of the contestants looked on in horror by the dish she was presenting.

One judge said something in Spanish that translated to: “This is never seen in MasterChef.”

The judges, rightly so, grilled Carrillo and were not exactly sad to see the back of her.

As she plonked her apron down on the bench and strutted out of the Masterchef kitchen, the judges watched her leave with faces like a slapped a**.

The clip was from a season that aired in 2020 and went viral at the time, and has since been viewed 7.4 million times on YouTube.Play

People were quick to mock the episode on social media.

One YouTube user wrote: “HOW DISGUSTING GOD, I really can’t handle cherry tomatoes.”

Someone else saw fit to quote TV Chef legend Gordon Ramsay saying: “IT’S SO RAW THAT IT CAN STILL FLY!”

While another brutally said: “It is tragic that a person like this is a social educator when in reality she is yet to be civilized.”

I wonder what John and Greg would have made of all this?
