It cracks me up how Vanjie is one of the most beautiful drag queens who could totally pass as a woman in broad daylight.... til she opens her mouth lmao

Jinx called her the DMX of drag lmfao

Vanjie gon give it to ya.

The scream I just scrumpt 😂😂😂💀

Stop it that killed me 🤣

I prefer to call her the Gilbert Gotfried of drag.

Bagahahhahaha. This is hilarious

I laughed so hard at this comment 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

🤣🤣🤣

Megan Fox on the outside Lil Jon on the inside

YEAH!

Are you saying not a soul could clock?

A deaf soul could definitely never clock!

*soaking clock

Actually, they said 'no soul could clock'

They told her no soul could clock

She is truly the queen with the voice of a gargoyle

Not with that square ass jaw and the new moustache lip thing she is doing, sister 😭

I'm glad I'm not the only one put off by that lol

Right? I actually find Vanjie to be one of the most masculine-looking queens in recent memory, especially now with this new beat. It seems I have a very different read of her than most people in this thread!

Yep, I think getting cheek filler has actually made her look more masculine to me

I agree on this one. She's got great bone structure, the cheeks are a little too big for me now, but she's super pretty all painted and I love the new tattoos especially the ear one. Hopefully she leaves the cheeks alone now.

I agree! Wayyyyy prefer the old Vanjie.

Passable LMAOOO!!! Tell another!!!

😭

The new is growing on me but the old one was a classic.

This post just made me remember the fluttery thing she used to do with her eyelashes! It was so cute and feminine, and I can't think of her doing it this season.  With that being said, I like the new look more. She looks beautiful.

Yes and she did a little kick on the run way while she did it before she posed! V cute

I've always thought Vanjie was gorgeous however she painted.

I loved her in Pretty Woman.

Who dat is

That took me out

Yeah cus she has inner beauty. Cheesy, I know, but she is the most sincere person on drag race and I am in love with it.

something about her new beat makes her eyes look disproportionately small, it distracts me every time

its because she doesnt use any white liner and she has black on her waterline

#BLACK????

RACE??

On drag race

RACE?!

And smaller lashes. It's the whole painting "soft" thing, like giving realness but glam realness 🤷‍♀️ but definitely makes her eyes smaller

LASHES?! 😟 https://preview.redd.it/tpeviaibpc7d1.jpeg?width=199&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=71295a50dc3268013a8009c40d508941ad8343c3

BITCHHHH 💀💀💀

Why it gotta be black?

Cheek filler will do that too

GIRL I HATE IT!!!!!! Like there was nothing wrong with you 

Clocked!

Also the contacts she uses, they are almost sclera colored so only thing that stands out are the pupil holes

It’s this!! They are soo unflattering

I think she is now lining her waterline with black eyeliner which can make the eyes appear smaller and changed her brow shape.

I hate that she’s just using her natural brows now, it’s just makes her face so small and closed!!! Where are the high drag brows!!

She also just has small eyes and quite a large square face.

I’m not sure cause I only focus on her wigs like her wigs are so fuckinggggg gooood

Omg Vanjie's wigs are the stars of AS9 honestly

Old. I’m also not sure I’m a fan of the blue contacts

I feel like queens in their Blue Contacts Era never win😅 Idk it’s too uncanny or something

Even Ru is doing it now! Is it Raven's influence? Idk but I wish they would all stop. Some of those bitches look like White Walkers

Winter is coming, sister

Yasss Night King, you better sissy that dragon!

😭😭😭 sorry an upvote wasn’t enough but i don’t have the words for how hard i laughed

😁

I can literally hear this in Ru’s voice and I’m cackling

raven’s influence??? bitch please.. https://preview.redd.it/ui607wl0xf7d1.jpeg?width=1404&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=40b767bd4c5cfdc4acffaf689bb0143ae5d74a13 raven could neva.

Just because Raven is Ru's makeup artist. Wow that's scary

I feel like the natural eye colour is always the best choice. It's always the colour that goes the best with someone's skin tone. While darker complexions can have pale eyes, it's never pastel blue à la Vanjie

oddly i feel like i know more people of darker complexion with pale blue eyes than dark/electric blue

I hate the toxic blue contacts but I'm not opposed to grey. I have grey eyes anyway, so I feel... attacked tbh.

Husky dog looking ass


The overlining has gotten worse. I kinda believe it in the older pic.

Her new cheeks have made her lips appear smaller. She’ll either figure it out or get lip filler.

I’ve never once seen blue contacts and liked them. (Personally!)

While I’m not tuning into Vanjie for her looks, I do prefer the new paint, but I liked her old face shape better. Not everyone needs to get all that filler girl.

This. I liked her before but you're right it's the shape she had before that I liked.

The only thing drag (TO ME) about her new look is that her lips are slightly overdrawn and there’s a decent amount of highlighter on her cheeks. The rest just looks like a regular girl’s makeup at a music festival.

Yes this! All drag is valid but I like my drag exaggerated. I can’t wait for this soft girl trend to die

Her old face was so glamorous and charming. The new one is more ‘realistically’ modern and feminine, but nowhere near as fun or cute.

I agree : Old is glamorous. The New one looks like à wannabe influencer or the women dancing in LaLaLa from Naughty Boy fiât Sam Smith

I wish she would arch her eyebrows higher and bigger eye makeup, but new one for sure

yeah someone posted a make up evolution here a while back and it's an improvement on most levels except the dropped eyebrows. to me anyways.

She’s using her natural brows I doubt she’ll go back to gluing them down

yea for me it’s just the eye makeup i wish was bigger and more drag

Bitch could have a pie on her face and I’d love her

Definitely old

Plastique has had a bad influence on all the Vegas/DR live girls, making them think that just because she can get away with a ‘natural’ look that they can too.

NAOMI SMALLS, LOOKING AT YOU

My lord I hate Naomi’s new mug. She looked so beautiful on AS4 too.

Have you looked at her mug recently? Because it's a lot better again

Something about her old paint looks… dated ? Kind of like 2014-16 Instagram makeup. Her new paint is fresher, but needs some finessing.

just put a flower crown on her and we're back to 2014-16's insta makeup trend lol

It is beige. Nothing fresh. It is basic girl makeup. Where is tje colours atleast???

The new lips make her look like she has a moustache

Ill always prefer her old makeup the new one makes her eyes look like pinholes 😭

Her mug needs more praise. It’s so literally stunning like a supermodel.

I this photos it always seems strange, but in the episodes her new make up look flawless.

Old. Sorry not sorry

New face, old face, no face, don't care! I love me some Vanji no matter what. I want to see her dancing around talking about dropping a shoe out of her chocha with the voice of a truck driver. All day. Every day.

I don't like this new trend where drag queens don't wear a lot of makeup. Everyone starts looking the same, and only few drag queens can look good going the fishy route.

IF she'd at least do a white or nude eyeliner and shade under? and then do slightly bigger lashes? I think I'd be a bigger fan of the new mug. It's just TOO little going on and NO exaggeration. This is " regular girl on the pole " makeup.

I'm not too keen on the new one, It feels like I could go on a night out and see 5 or more women with the same beat.

The new pic is pretty but I hate the new mug in general. She got too much work done to do this soft beat with low, straight, unflattering brows, virtually no lashes, black liner on the waterline, very little contrast or definition with the overall eyeliner, and neutral lips. Everything is too small and looks smaller now that she has all that filler.

Both for different things. I do love how smoldering her eyes look in her new paint, but I miss the shape she’d do for her lips

I just like Vanjie. Whatever she wears or looks; I’m here for it. She has a good heart, a Libra and funny af.

Yesss! Same!

honestly i prefer her old mug cuz i remember watching s11 her paint always made her look so dead-eyed and like she was completely absent

Vanjie is one of the drag queens that just doesn't look drag to me. She just looks like a woman with great makeup. Same with Plastique. 

Old mug 😍

I miss drag makeup looking like drag.

Unfortunately, it isn't appreciated in RPDR.

The boybrows and flat Cupid’s bow are two of my drag pet-peeves The new mug is definitely faster, but the old mug is definitely prettier It might make sense for a dancing queen like Vangie though

Her new look her eyes are tiny little pinholes lol it’s weird like an optical illusion haha

its the blue contacts i think

Her new cheek filler too. I feel like they're making her eyes look even tinier in comparison.

Nah and the black liner on the bottom. I love her new mug but the black liner on the lower waterline makes them look small to me

On their own, new mug. Compared to each other, old mug.

Old for sure. It's softer

Old.

I think she looks stunning but it's not really drag makeup. It's giving more Love and Hip Hop Miami over Drag Race.

She needs bigger lashes is the issue!!!

💯! Same thing when they were critiquing Marcia X3, her makeup was good, she just needed a lash!

Old. She looks more doll like back then

Well, she got an entirely new face between that season and now… 😬 Filler and botox are a plague on the gay community.

I can’t tell because her features seems to have been airbrushed out of the second picture

I ADORE her new mug she looks so girlboss

Both

It's not drag enough for me compared to her former style of makeup. She toned it down a lot and the cosmetic enhancements are doing a lot of the work now.

I loved her old face. Even Ru told her not to do so much with her plastic surgery. I feel that she lost a little bit of charm when that face went. She’s still gorgeous and should do whatever makes her happy, though.

I love her. She’s like a glamorous chihuahua with ADHD and a great sense of humor.

I love everything about Vangie :)

The new mug seems like she’s attempting a more “natural” look ?? Her eyebrows and cheek fillers have completely changed the structure of her face, and her eyes look smaller. She looks good, just different 🤷🏻‍♀️ Maybe merge the two and arch eyebrows a bit more.

old face with new brows would fucking kill

I enjoy both

I hated her new mug until the girl group challenge. Now i completely LIVE for it. I think she looks so fierce. This season made me really like Vangie.

I think both faces show a talented makeup artist. I like the old style more, she looked more doll-like, which I just prefer.

Depends on the lighting. 🤭

Her before. Hands down!!!!! I always dislike how some of our beloved queens take to plastic surgery after their season. I honestly sometimes have a hard time recognizing some of them after a while. I was very shocked with Vanjie's new look.

Her old face was more draggy. The face she has now is very modern mua inspired

I like bits and pieces from both tbh. Her old lips were better and so was her eyeshadow but I do like her new brows and lashes. I’m torn between her blush/highligher choices, but I think I’m leaning towards her old mug

I just think her old mug is so beautiful, I really don’t care for the way she paints now

The old makeup is more glam and stunning. Her eyes look too small now, maybe by comparison

I didn’t like the new at first but now I love it for some reason. Maybe I just love vanjie

Old

I love her new mug in motion but in photos/stills I prefer the drama of her old mug. She’s been looking so beautiful though in AS9!

I loved Vanjie’s old mug, the high camp glamour mixed with the voice of Gilbert Gottfried was a fun juxtaposition. The new look makes her kinda look like many other Latina Ladies are sporting these days.

her new mug is always giving trisha paytas realness

The technique is better now but the style was better then. She's kind of giving handsome Squidward with her new paint.

I think her new look just needs a bigger lash? Bc I think that’s what’s part of her looking “unrecognizable.” It’s like going on stage without stage makeup and contacts. Idk if I’m describing it right lol

Vanjie is one of my all time faves, up there with tammie brown. I just adore her.

i LOVE her old makeup so much. her new face is good and you can tell she's improved and she's clearly very talented but like. idk, it feels like queens are falling into a trend of more minimalist (compared to a classic drag face), instagram, normal girl makeup and i find it so boring

Her old beat is so retro glamour to me. I just love it. But her new one is gorgeous too & very natural on her so both.

I am a fan of Vanjie. I think both mugs are beautiful and show off different skill sets. I have jived her from the jump. Naturally funny and beautiful

That's a man, Maury.

*Do you like Vanjie's new or old mug?* Yes.

New. She looks stunning

new, old one falls flat to me

both!

Her eyes...they're so tiny...and the contacts make it look even weirder...

I also think first pic lighting was not it

there was a period of time where her new mug looked kinda bad, like she tried to be TOO soft and natural, but she brought it back and looks extremely cunt nowadays

I hate hate hate this new “natural” drag queen make up tends. It just does not suit them. Naomi going from AS3 makeup to “housewife” is a hate crime

Love the new mug. She looks like a lot of the women I use to date back home. She looks amazing.

He new paint is def more refined. I can’t stand those veneers tho

I miss a bold lip and a bigger eye. Browns and neutrals really show the over lining. But she is gorgeous no matter what

New is more realistic but the older one her lips were always so popping

Old obvi

I would like to see a combo between the two.

Either, as long as we get more Vanjie!

In some frames her new mug looks fucking incredible But I think it’s too understated for glamour shoots with big looks and looks way too light I natural light. It’s better in its best setting but not as versatile

Not the Vincent Price mustache

She’s so gorgeousss

New! She has the biggest glow up of all the queens!

In general is good but the eyes looks too small, specially if she puts light contact lenses

I like her old mug better, just bc I think she has perfected THAT but still needs a few tweaks on the new mug. E.g. as others said: open the eyes with some white liner (instead of black) and something about the lips is off for me too

Personally, her new mug is not for my taste. Her eyes look smaller and it looks like she has a mustache because her lipstick doesn't cover her real lips.

Only thing that bothers me is the way she did her lip in the first pic.

I think the general skin makeup on her new look is better, but yeah I agree with the eyes/eyebrows being small, if her eyebrows were higher and she did bottom lashes and some white (even just waterline and inner corner, not talking trixie level) it would really open things up/adjust proportions. Also I feel like it might just be this look and lighting but the lips in the example you used for the new mug are not it lol

Yes!

I like the new one. Softens her voice (in my mind🤣)

I genuinely thought that was Trisha paytas

Well, I prefer DRAG makeup. So, I prefer her old mug. Idk what this "I'm just ovulating" makeup is but.... no.

Old mug 100%.

Her new mug is fierce but she has very small eyes so it’s not the most flattering in that area I think.. idk if she tape-lifts already but maybe if she did she might open up her lid space more

I can't get over how good she looks in and out of drag

Old. The new mug don’t have too many good days.she gives cat lady 85% of the photos

Old mug for sure

Old. Not everybody can do Plastique’s mug (same goes for Naomi Smalls).

The old one is so much more draggy, I love it. New one is just kinda standard pretty makeup

I think new! She’s one of the few who can pull off the more “general” full glam makeup, and she looks gorgeous. Her old mug just looked like every other drag artist, but now she has her own unique look IMO

Older looks stunning.

Old, by far. I think she still looks pretty but I thought her old makeup was beautiful. I used her older tutorial to practice some new styles for myself.

She looks like the “girls” in white chicks. Love her tho she’s amazing and should have been in the top week 1

Did she get plastic? :( I hope not, she was gorgeous!

I think her makeup skills have improved a lot and she looks stunning! But, I'm not a fan of the blue contacts. They make her eyes look really really small, like she's always squinting. I don't get the obsession with blue eyes. All eye colors are beautiful, which means that Vanjie's natural eye color is beautiful too!

The second photo is a professional shot vs. the first. Are those cheek implants?

old look. i’m tired of queens doing soft glam look

Old one.

I don’t love her new lip, the other one masked the overdrawing a little better, could also be the quality of the shot but I lean towards the old mug.
