She is the Ukrainian model with a body and face that strongly resembles the classic Barbie doll - and is billed as such in advertising work that she does.
But how did she get that insanely fit body and her face to look like Barbie?
Well the face is mostly makeup apparently. Although she has been accused of using plastic surgery, Valeria Lukyanova maintains her looks are completely the result of well executed makeup designed to make her look more like Barbie.
The name she prefers to use is "Amatue", which may sound great in her native Ukrainian, but in English looks and sounds like Amateur.
She has also been accused of having her photos photoshopped, which some of them might be, but if you watch videos of her you can see she clearly looks like that in real life. So if there is any photoshopping going on the changes are comparatively minor... things like trying to make her eyes look bigger so she looks more doll-like and un-human. And to be fair, she is already using makeup to make her eyes look bigger so photoshop seems like overkill.
See the video below to see how she manages her makeup.
The thing however is that Valeria Lukyanova claims to maintain her physique using nothing more than exercise - and judging by her workout videos (shown below) she is using low weights and high repetitions to accomplish this goal. According to a Certified Personal Trainer from Cardio Trek using low weights and a high reps workout would result in an ultra thin body, with very little muscle tone and very little fat.
Now you might think, well what about her breasts? If she is exercising that much, shouldn't she lose some of her breast size by working out so much?
Not necessarily. Some women are simply blessed with well-developed breasts, and breast size doesn't decrease dramatically unless they're either anorexic or taking steroids. Natural breasts will ultimately look natural. And looking at the photo above, they're not HUGE and they do appear to be proportional for the size of her chest. And certainly not abnormal when you consider the number of women I've seen at the beach with similar proportions (although they are usually teens or in their 20s if they look that perky).
What is more unnerving is how thin she looks, but without that bony look that anorexic women typically get. Again, this could be due to her exercise routine. So lets have a look at her exercise videos below and see what she is actually doing.
So yes, we can conclude that she is exercising to keep her body ultra thin, but maintaining just a small amount of muscle tone so she doesn't look anorexic. Chalk that down to a very specific exercise routine.
But lets imagine you want to look like Barbie too. Can you do it? Is it even possible?
Well with exercise, you could certainly try to get part of the way there, and you would look fabulous. But its doubtful that you have the right facial proportions and some impressive skills with makeup to do what Valeria Lukyanova does.

Nice article! It's confirmed that she got her breasts enlarged with surgery. But anyway, perhaps you can provide more info on how to work out specifically to get a body like Valeria's? :)
She's also been confirmed as absolutely insane. The person who wrote this article should be ashamed of themselves for talking so highly of Lukyanova. Valeria Lukyanova claims she is an alien from another Universe and admits to not eating, but rather surviving as a 'breatharian,' or someone who sustains off consumption of light and air, what Lukyanova refers to as 'cosmic micro-food.' She's had numerous plastic surgeries, one of which was the removal of ribs which is what makes her so impossibly skinny. Not to mention, if the author of this page did even the slightest bit of research she would easily discover that Lukyanova is unapologetic anti-semite and racist. Sugarmeth: you will never, EVER, no matter what 'workout' you do, have a "body like Valeria's," and that you should be glad of.
