A TIKTOKER has scared her fans by sharing a video of herself joking about her serious facial burns — without giving a real explanation as to what caused them.
The influencer is known on TikTok for sharing fun lifestyle and fashion videos to her more than 20 million fans but she recently changed the tone with a series of posts showing extensive facial burns.

Beasteater (@beasteater) began sharing the videos on Saturday, showing her cheeks, nose, and chin red with burns and lacerations.
“Shoutout to the hospital I wouldn’t be here without medicine,” she wrote in the description of the first video but said nothing in the clip.
She then posted a short summary of what caused the burns in her next TikTok post.
“When you get a chemical burn all over your face and it turns into an infection that started to spread through your bloodstream and almost killed you,” she wrote, again not speaking in the clip.

She reportedly received a chemical burn from applying an expired facial product that she tried to treat by using a facial steamer, according to Distractify.
The use of the steamer apparently caused a bacterial infection that developed into a blood infection — which can rapidly lead to death if left untreated.
Beasteater has not clarified which product she used but did say that it expired in 2020.
Thousands of people responded to the videos with concerns and questions about what product Beasteater used to cause such damage.
The influencer posted a final video on Monday satirically comparing herself to Harley Quinn.
“So a lot of people were like, what happened to you? What happened to your face? So I just wanted to come on here and clarify real quick — I was talking to this guy,” she said in the clip.
BATMAN FOREVER
She said that she was hanging out with a man when he asked her to prove that she loved him by jumping into a hole filled with acid.
“If you love me, you’ll jump off this s**t. And I’m like, what? I do love you — I’ll jump off this s**t,” she recounted.
“I dived into, like a front backflip, dolphin dive, flip — Straight into the acid,” she joked.
But it was a happy ending after all, she promised her fans.
“Then he jumped in and after me. So we’re both just sitting in the acid, and he kissed me,” she said.
“That’s why I look like this!”
Her story is a personalized version of the love story behind comic stars Harley Quinn and The Joker in DC Comics’ Batman universe.
FANS WORRY
“Does it hurt?” one worried viewer asked.
“Virtually sending you love because lord have mercy I can feel your pain. Please let us know what product did this to you. You’re so gorgeous don’t let NO ONE tell you different,” a second person commented.
“Brooooooo how am I 25 and didn’t know that skincare expires …… I’m shocked. Looking at all my stuff right NOW,” another added.
But many fans also got a kick out of the influencer’s comparison of herself to the comics.
“The fact that people can’t tell this is satire concerns me,” one fan wrote.
“Love The Joker and Harley Quinn story!” another added.
Beasteater did not immediately respond to a request for comment by The U.S. Sun.
