Tracy, from Plymouth in Devon, said: "I'm a make up artist and with the coronavirus going around I decided to have a bit of a laugh.

"I got my brushes and put them through the letter box to do makeup on the other side.

"I'd have to avoid contact to not get coronavirus, but this wouldn't really work - I only did it as a bit of a laugh.

"I managed to apply some make up, but I didn't do a very good job - no one would really do it this way."
