LONDON -- Stop what you're doing immediately. Cara Delevingne has a new tattoo and it is kinda hypnotic.

The star went to celebrity tattoo spot Bang Bang studio in New York to add some more ink to her existing tattoo collection.

The supermodel-turned-actress got a pair of very lifelike eyes tattooed at the nape of her neck, just below her hairline, creating the illusion of a face.
