This may look like a room full of bored schoolgirls, but all is not what is seems in this clever ad by Japanese makeup company Shiseido.

The video, which has racked up more than 2.8 million views in the last week, shows what happens when the models are stripped of their wigs and makeup.

Turns out the "schoolgirls" aren't schoolgirls at all.
