She spends half an hour painstakingly applying her dramatic make-up to each one of her eyes.

Some reports say, Shpagina intends to undergo surgery on her eyes to make her resemble her anime idols even more closely.

The teenager, who has over 10,000 fans on Facebook, also posts videos on YouTube demonstrating how she applies her make-up.

One clip, in which Shpagina reveals to fans how she achieves her 'flower fairy' look, has been watched more than 150,000 times.

Shpagina is not the first young girl to take style inspiration from the world of fantasy.
