We've seen some amazing makeup transformations in our day, but Paolo Ballesteros is blowing us away with his unbelievable transformations into female characters from HBO's Game of Thrones. This 33-year-old Filipino actor and TV host has previously gone viral for transforming into other famous female celebrities, including the Kardashians, and now he's breaking the Internet once again by embodying some badass ladies with seriously signature looks.
Is this sorcery? Because it sure seems like it.
