and several photos from a night out.

In the video, Alana looked on and laughed as a waiter poured blue liquid into a large chalice-style cup that began to smoke.

She covered her mouth as she giggled, all the while someone recorded.

Then, in the first of two photos, she appeared to be taking out her phone to snap a photo or video as a server brought over a cake with candles in it for someone at the table.

Finally, in the second snap she appeared to be cheering with one arm in the air along with the rest of the table.

It's unclear what was happening in the photo, but everyone appeared excited and happy in the images.

Alana captioned the post: "had such a great experience @thesuguarfactory!"

Several fans noted how adult she looked in the post.

A third commented: "You are turning into such a beautiful young woman."

TOO GROWN?

While several fans appear to appreciate how much Alana has grown up, others have been critical.

Recently, she faced backlash for wearing heavy lashes and too much makeup.

She responded by posting a video on her TikTok account featuring several makeup-free looks.

In the first of several shots, she was shown with her hair up in a bun while wearing a cozy-looking hoodie.

She pursed her lips in the post, tilting her head up and down.

Text written over the photo read: "Why are you always with your sister???"

Several other images of a bare-faced Alana appeared before a snap of her and sister Pumpkin, 22, sitting in a car together.

She answered the question with the lyrics to Kodaline's song Brother, which read: "If I was dying on my knees you would be the one to rescue me."

The moving tribute to her big sister, real name Lauryn Shannon, went on as Alana shared several throwback photos of her and her sibling through the years.

Alana and Lauryn have been living together amid mom Mama June's struggles and her focus on sobriety.

The reality star is also mom to daughters Anna, 27, and Jessica, 25.

LASHING OUT

The post came after Alana clapped back at trolls who came for her for dressing too adult and wearing too much makeup.

In March 2021, she shared a series of photos showing her rocking over-the-top makeup, Alana wrote: "Can’t stand me? Take a seat!"

The TV personality was forced to stand up for herself once more when critics complained about her long lashes and nails.

She repeated some of what the trolls were saying about her looks in a short TikTok post.

The caption read: "You really should stop wearing them long and them long nails.

"It's very unprofessional of you."
