Skye Wheatley shocked her followers with the results of her fox eye lift surgery on Monday.
The former Big Brother star took to her Instagram Stories to reveal the ‘scary’ state of her face after going under the knife in Turkey.
The 30-year-old responded to allegations she has a ‘plastic surgery addiction’ last week and also defended sharing the details of her procedures online.
Skye’s face is still covered entirely with tape after she underwent several cosmetic procedures.
‘I can’t show my face yet it’s way too scary, but when I heal more I will show the process don’t worry,’ she told her followers last Thursday.
When pushed by her fans to film her face, she said ‘Nah, it’s horrific.’
The fox eye lift is touted as a ‘minimally invasive’ procedure that uses dissolvable threads to lift the eyebrow and elongate the outer eye area into an almond-shape.
For years, people have been achieving the look using clever eyeliner, shadow makeup techniques and various tweezing methods to create a visual sweep upward to the corner of the eye.
‘I’m trusting the process,’ Skye said of her recovery.

The photos Skye shared on Monday show her face does indeed look ‘scary’ after the trendy procedure, which has been popularised by accessibility of first-hand reviews and celebrities such as Kendall Jenner, Bella Hadid, and Arianna Grande.
In addition to the fox eye lift, Skye also admitted she underwent a complementary temporal lift (fat transfer into the face to prevent the need for injectable dermal fillers) and a bletharoplasty (an eyelid surgery) last week.
On Monday, she shared photos of additional massage treatments for lymphatic drainage and ‘neck hydration’.
‘Whoops wasn’t going to do a face reveal yet because the tapes make us look crazy,’ Skye captioned a photo of herself posing with her plastic surgeon and a friend who also got the procedure.
Meanwhile, the mother-of-two has also waded into some hot water after leaving a comment on fellow reality star Cyrell Paule’s post about The Amazing Race.
‘She’s crazy but makes great TV, I’ll give her that,’ Skye wrote underneath a post by Cyrell.

Cyrell was left furious by the remark, telling Skye ‘woman to woman’ she had ‘no right’ to call her crazy and asked the I’m Celebrity!…Get Me Out Of Here! winner to think about the ‘ramifications’ of her making those comments.
‘Of course a light-skinned woman is allowed to call a woman of colour crazy,’ Cyrelle wrote in response.
In a flurry of posts made to her Instagram Stories on Monday, she also wrote that Skye had ‘commented for attention’ and was ’embarrassing’ and ‘a hypocrite’ because she’d previously represented a charity called Bully Zero on I’m A Celeb.
Meanwhile, Skye reposted a clip of ‘Cyclone Cyrelle’ competing on the current season of The Amazing Race: Celebrity Edition captioned: ‘Cyrelle is so scary guys, I’m having PTSD watching this from the little interaction we had.’
‘See, this is what I mean,’ Cyrelle clapped back when re-shared Skye’s Story.
‘You need to understand when I call myself or someone I love crazy, I know it’s a joke,’ she wrote. ‘But when it’s coming from someone that I know doesn’t like me, it’s a backhanded compliment.’
‘This is why as a woman of colour I say this portrays me as aggressive and violent. It is not ok.’

'I was trying to be a different race!' Skye Wheatley announces she's given up tanning in the sun… after wishing she was a 'naturally-tanned Aboriginal'
This certainly isn’t the first time that Skye has come under fire for her comments after having to tell her audience she’s ‘not racist’ for three separate incidents in 2017, 2018, and 2019.
The tan-obsessed influencer was heavily criticised in 2017 after saying she wished she was a ‘naturally tanned Aboriginal’ so she’d have darker skin instead of having to use fake tan.
One year later, she landed herself in trouble again when she teased Lachlan Waugh, the father of her first baby, about whether she was going to give birth to a ‘chocolate baby’.
Then in 2019, she came dangerously close to repeating the same remarks while announcing her decision to give up sun tanning.
”I was trying to be a different race,’ Skye said on her Instagram Stories.
Explaining her choice in a lengthy admission shared to Instagram Stories, she claimed: ‘I was trying to be a different race.’

She went on to say, ‘just scroll back down my feed and you’ll see just how…’ and the former Big Brother star hesitated before adding, ‘tan I was’.
Skye, then 24, continued: ‘I was going to say something else, but then I’ll be called a racist and I just can’t deal with that drama.’
‘I first met Skye at a Mother’s day event where she kept on asking questions [about] how Eden and I got together and how we ended up together,’ Cyrelle continued in a subsequent post amid their latest feud.
‘She was implying the rumours were true regarding Eden and I being a “publicity stunt” and she then said she was just trying to get to know me.”
Cyrell was left furious by the remark, telling Skye ‘woman to woman’ she had ‘no right’ to call her crazy and asked the I’m Celebrity!…Get Me Out Of Here! winner to think about the ‘ramifications’ of her making those comments
The MAFS alum rehashed a now-infamous moment she and Skye shared at a Gold Coast influencer event in 2022.
Cyrelle and Love Island’s Eden Dally are one the most controversial and polarising couple’s on n reality television. They share a son, Boston.
‘She was putting me on show in front of her mates at the event and she is now sharing a link to that night of me saying I’d shove her in her food,’ Cyrelle continued in her post.
‘Thinking about it now, I wish I did. And people wonder why I go off.
‘I am sick of having to explain why my partner is with me, or people saying he’s too good for me,’ she continued.
‘At the time, this is how [Skye] made me feel,’ Cyrelle concluded, but not before taking a savage swipe at the blonde: ‘All I know is Skye… I didn’t steal my partner from anyone, unlike others. So bye Felicia.’
Skye then filmed a response, lying in bed reposed with her taped-up face on full display.
She made an effort to re-bury the hatchet by sharing a link to the video of the incident.

‘I swear it was ‘set up’ because the girl next to Cyrelle was already filming,’ she said on Monday, echoing her comments from two years ago.
‘Anyway, I’m not problematic, actually you could say I’m problematic. But I don’t care. YOLO.
‘I was actually just asking her questions and I didn’t realise she would react like that, then after that, I was like, wait am I in an episde of MAFS?’ Skye continued.
She then repeated her compliment to Cyrelle. ‘She makes great TV I’m actually really excited to watch The Amazing Race this year.’
