A TEENAGER is wowing onlookers online with her unique looks - including donning a full face of Shrek-esque green make-up to transform into a real-life goblin. Alice Caron, 19, from Lyon, France, has patented an ultra-colourful style that mixes cyberpunk, fantasy, gothic and "Harajuku" - the cutesy Japanese fashion trend. One of her most distinctive creations is the goblin, which features green body paint over all visible body parts, large prosthetic ears and black lipstick - combined with Alice's signature rainbow-hued hair and clothing. Alice, a political sciences student at University of Lyon, said: "I love to be green because it brings me a lot of joy and I want to feel 100% myself, it's about self-expression and feeling comfortable and happy with how I look. My face is like a playground. My look is different every day." The French teen has found love with boyfriend Nicolas, 26, who adores her out-there look despite opting for more conservative clothes himself. “He loves how I look even though we are very different," Alice said. "It's so funny because no one expects to see us together." Nicolas added: "Walking with a goblin isn't something I'd experienced before! When I first saw Alice's style I was intimidated. I was like "We are from two different worlds" but we are not very different." Alice was bullied at school, but now has own online accessories shop, Le Lezard Rose (The Pink Lizard), and organizes regular meet-ups for other alternative style enthusiasts in her region.
