I usually start my live-stream session around 7pm to 9pm and finish around 10pm or 11pm. Then I will upload the video on my social media accounts,” she said, according to Daily Mail.
It usually takes Yan two to four hours to finish a makeover for her video, which normally draws an average of 50,000 views. However, the duration sometimes depends on the facial features of the celebrity or the character they’re playing.

During her live streams, she covers half of her face with the makeover, while her other half shows the picture of the actual celebrity through a phone for comparison.

Yan later revealed in her interview that she used to paint portraits when she was younger.
I guess it’s the foundation that I built up from drawing that makes me easier to apply it on makeup,” Yan said.
