It just so happened that Flego was a makeup artist. She took the challenge and the results were so astonishing that the two became internet sensations.

Flego took her grandmother's challenge because she wanted to show the world how makeup could take 20 years away from your face if done correctly. When social media caught wind of the transformation they started sharing the images.

The images and video showed Flego’s great makeup techniques. However, the images and video were mainly shared because people loved the bond the two shared.

Livia became an internet celebrity since her debut project. She proved to the public that age shouldn’t limit a person under any circumstances.

“I love my grandma and being in a nursing home and getting information about reactions all over the world means a lot for her.”
