A Pro-Russian woman reportedly used a makeup found on the crash site of MH17 jetliner.

Ukrainian Ekaterina Parkhomenko said she did not bat her eye when she was putting on the mascara, which was probably owned by a dead victim.

Parkhomenko posted a photo in her Instagram account, which showed her dolling up using the reported salvaged makeup. The woman said a "looter" friend gave her the mascara.

"Mascara from Amsterdam; to be precise, from the field. Well, you understand," captioned in the photo, where she can be seen grinning with the mascara on her hand.

One of her followers asked her where she got the mascara and Parhomenko replied saying it was from last week's crash site.

The brunette even posted a picture of her newly manicured nails with blood-red polish holding the mascara.

The Ukrainian beauty said she lived in Torez City, an area close to the crash site of the Boeing 777, which was allegedly shot down by pro-Russian rebels.

Parkhomenko also posted about her support to the Russians, which has been receiving backlash from the rest of the world in connection with the ill-fated Malaysia Airlines flight.

"I am just sick of all this Ukrainian stuff. Sick and terribly furious," she said.

Meanwhile another Instagram user commented that her photos were "horrific" and "disgusting."

After a surge of online criticisms, Parkhomenko deleted the posts and deactivated her account.

However, she had a few exchanges with the critics before she left.

One user commented, "It's good that at least you are not finishing their food off."

Parkhomenko's snappy response was, "But if you wish I can send you the food, the knickers," as she referred to the underwears of the victims.

Russian blogger Bozhena Rynska posted on her Facebook page saying, "It is lower than low to pick up mascara from the deceased."

Another Ukrainian writer, Natalia Belous, also reacted to the issue: "And this is a so-called civilian? At least she is not running around with a machine gun. Can you imagine what this friend of hers, that 'looter,' is like?"

There were speculations circulating that Parkhomenko's post is fake and was created to build the tension between Ukraine and Russia.

However, another commenter said that even though it is just a fake post, "it is sick, completely sick, from whoever is responsible."
