The insta-face is very poplar. More and more people aspire the lifted eyes, high cheekbones, full lips, small nose and young skin that characterise this face. This trend was central to an episode of the BNN series Happy Trending, in which the hosts talked to dr. Anne-Mette Hermans. Anne-Mette is communication researcher at the Erasmus School of History, Culture and Communication (ESHCC) and researches the popularity of cosmetic procedures.
