Why did Garnet's regeneration and fusing make it her look younger and cuter?

I think it's a reflection of her character development thus far. She used to be rather stoic and off-putting, thus most times before when she did show all there of her eyes, she looked unsettling. Over the course of the season, though, she's become a warmer and more open person, primarily with Steven. It's reached a high point in "Jailbreak," as she is overjoyed with being reminded of the love that forms her, as well as the maternal love she feels for Steven. To represent that, her eyes no longer look so strange and unsettling.
