Chinese women lengthen their legs with fake navels (4 photos)
A new trend has emerged in China - a temporary tattoo of the navel. The decals are usually applied a few centimeters above the actual navel, which is then hidden by a skirt or trousers to make the torso appear shorter and the legs longer. The cost of the decoy is 5-10 yuan. The idea may seem stupid, but manufacturers can barely cope with demand!
Chinese social networks are filled with video tutorials on how to use false belly buttons, and videos on how to change the proportions of the figure with their help.
“The result is quite natural, I think it looks better than my own navel,” comments one of those who got the tattoo. “I have long legs.”
Many people consider round, thick or protruding belly buttons not beautiful enough, so they prefer to hide them and use fakes.
The unexpected popularity of the stickers is also due to the fact that doctors of Chinese traditional medicine advise keeping the stomach warm to maintain the overall health of the body. Well, with a fake belly button, girls can wear high-waisted trousers and skirts without giving up tops.
“These transfers are not so easy to peel off, they are even waterproof,” the girl wrote. “I am ready to call them the most successful invention of 2023.”
“This is not just a fake sticker, it’s a “trick” to say goodbye to my 50/50 parameters,” admitted another Chinese resident.
